Good question, I'll let you know if I win it on ebay!

(Deeper is on the b-side, date is apparently 1990, and the label is London/FFRR)

If I remember, that photo was used a couple of times in interviews (Record Mirror, for definite)... Looks intriguing, anyway...

It does look really sweet. Good luck Nick, hope you win & hope it's for real.

Yeah good luck Nick - there was a time i would be waiting to bid on this

Btw...does he actually say its a jukebox version ?

Nah, he doesn't mention that it's a jukebox version, although (given the size of the hole in the centre of the record...

)

Looks like Badger's put in a bid before me - ah well!

i remember wondering what that funny round plastic thing was sitting on the corner of my brother's dodgy old turntable (at the time he had two completely different belt driven ones

).
and i remember wondering how you were supposed to play a 7" with the middle pressed out of it on a deck without it wobbling everywhere.
guess it was 'cos i never saw both things at the same time (and i was young) but it was quite a while before they clicked together in my mind

haha.

yeah my mom had an old turntable where you could press the middle area and a round piece used to spring up. Especially made for those old records that had broken in the centre.

My Dad used to fix jukeboxes, fruit machines and arcade machines for a living, so we had a jukebox up until I was 15. Consequently I've still got about 200 ex-jukebox records in my parent's garage - I've also got a few singles I bought and got my dad to take into work to get the middle pressed out for me (on a machine commonly known as a 'dinking' machine...). Trouble was the machine didn't always get the hole dead centre and you'd end up with the record sounding a bit 'sick' as the needle moves back and forth. I distinctly remember Axel F sounding like the synths were out of tume...

We frequently had fruit machines at home and every school fair we used to take arcade machines along for the kids to play on....!
