I got my Connections pre order 7" today. To be honest though, youth crew (bar the odd band here and there) really isn't my dig at all. The main reason I pre ordered this ep was because of the pure fact that Allan Reid is involved. Great dude, who's been around for ever, and I suspect will be around until he dies. And when you think about it, the idea behind this band is pretty fucken cool. For more details click here.
I like hand numbered sleeves. As you can see though, it looks like I got in a little later than most. To be honest I thought I was quick as shit. Oh well.
The photo doesn't really do proper justice, but the colour of the wax is actually a really nice, light green. Something I haven't really seen before. The insert is also a super good quality A4 sheet. Like semi thick, and printed really well. Overall for his first effort in pressing records Allan has done an amazing job.
Cheers man. Glad you're into it. I'm stoked how the green came out too. I got a few with black speckles but nothing big enough to pass off as a mispress. But still, the colour is the thing I am most stoked on.
