Anyway, it's not super rare and is limited 250. These are all over Ebay at the moment, I just need to get a copy of the Blue version now.
I wish I could of seen Sinking Ships just one more time before they split up. I saw in a tiny venue that got destroyed when they came on the stage. For some reason I never picked up either of the euro tour versions they had. I bought a tshirt limited to 40 they printed themselves in a garage.
Two more versions of Hammer Bros - II came in the post on the same day too, that I won on Ebay. I had won two Hammer Bros records from a seller on ebay and was outbid on the other two rare pressings he was selling. So I message him asking him to let me know if the buyer doesn't pay let me know. A week later he message me saying the guy hasn't paid so he gave me the 2nd Chance Offer!
I was so happy to finally get this version of the release. Its a friends press limited to 15 and has been silkscreened, also hand numbered. So I couldn't wait to find out what number I was getting.
I got number 1!
The other version I got was the Yellow Side By Side rip-off cover, which is also limited to 15. The vinly is a clear Blue and its a real deep Blue. I love clear vinyl especially Red and Green, it looks so much more classy than splatter and marble.
I read online somewhere, probably the B9 Board, that the band don't even listen to Side By Side and had nothing to do with the design of the cover. There are 2 other colours of the cover that I also need to get, Green and Blue.
