U2 The Unforgettable Fire (Quiex, Shrink)
Classic U2. RARE ORIGINAL 1984 QUIEX VIRGIN VINYL AUDIOPHILE pressing, RCA Record Club issue.
Vinyl is excellent, played once (from a true audiophile's collection). Cover is excellent still in original shrinkwrap; a hint of cornerwear holds grade down. Has original inner sleeve in excellent shape. Labels are excellent. Songs: A Sort Of Homecoming, Pride in the Name of Love, Wire, The Unforgettable Fire, Promenade, 4th of July, Bad, Indian Summer Sky, Elvis Presley and America, MLK.
If you’re not familiar with Quiex, it's like this: As CDs began coming on the scene in the 1980s, record companies started pressing Quiex lps for Radio stations. The idea was to show that vinyl was still king and sounded as good--or better--than CDs. MOST Quiex pressings were marked as such and shipped to radio. But if too many were pressed, they were packaged as regular LPs and those lucky enough to unknowingly buy them were then blessed with clearer sound! This translucent brown Audiophile beauty IS one of those pressings.
