Chairs Missing

Album UK 1978 on Harvest label
Alternative (Post-Punk, New Wave)

W/ lilac innter. This the 1st original UK issue pressed in 1978. There is speculation that the record is identical to those appearing with the black and white inner that was distributed immediately after this, and that this is because Wire intended the inner to be black and white and thus had the lilac inner replaced. On labels: MADE IN GT BRITAIN Other identifiers: - without barcode on rear sleeve; - released with thick rounded inner with LILAC band photo; - yellow/green vinyl labels; - Garrod & Lofthouse shortened to G.L. on rear, and to G & L on inner - inner sleeve without, "© 1978" for Carlin Music Corp.
