The name now makes sense.
I wish I got this at first instead of the 1996 remastered edition (different track list as well).
I didn’t realize that “Out of stock” on Amazon may not be 100% true, and there it was, the original 1984 release in Used category.
The 12" version of Smalltown Boy alone is better than the extra tracks in 1996 edition.
Plus it’s not a remaster, which I like even if it doesn’t sound all that much different, just because it’s original. Same reason I prefer I’m a believer by The Monkees over the more popular Smash Mouth cover.
Anyway, made in West Germany xD
41 years old and still just as playable and high quality. Slightly more than twice my age.
Anyway, I wonder what specifically “relationship” refers to in this context because… Hungary??
Oh, Hungary. 😔

Norway, Portugal, no laws, no age. Hmmmm, seems odd. Eire, Ireland is now the 100% opposite. How interesting. Bronksi Beat had some great early stuff. One of the former members is a priest now in the UK. Fun fact, discs pressed early on from Germany & Japan seem to hold up better over time.
Hungary demonstrating its strong PedoCon roots. No wonder Trump and the rest of MAGA respects them so much.
Yeah, I am all for a rather low age of consent, but 10 is crass.
Neat! What band is the album from?
Bronski Beat.
ty!
where’s netherlands??
“Holland” - a bit like saying English rather than British.
aha ty!!
They don’t seem to have updated the list for the rerelease, regarding it as artwork/a historical artefact.

One thing I love about these old releases is to try the number/website they have on them. I even try calling the BBS numbers you can find on old scene NFOs

I wonder how much difference there is between early and modern pressed CDs. They used to be shiny with solid-color prints, now it’s almost always CMYK raster. Tighter manufacturing tolerances allowed for consistent 80-minute disks. This one says AAD, now nobody cares. The newest ones will probably delaminate before some 90s ones. And CD-R has been viable for small runs for a while. The oldest CD in my house is likely a 1990 Czech carol collection from GZ Loděnice, and it has track names included, which many modern disks lack.
Anything else?
I remember having some CD that just… flaked of. Like all of that foil when I picked it up just fell off in pieces when touched, just running my finger over it.
The spindle part is quite different.
It’s fully silver, and misses the ridge around spindle.
