📝 Description:
Original 1978 UK pressing of Blondie’s second album, Plastic Letters, released on Chrysalis Records.

This is an early UK “A Porky Prime Cut” pressing, mastered by legendary cutting engineer George Peckham, giving it that crisp, punchy sound these early Chrysalis pressings are known for.

Featuring Blondie favourites including “Denis,” “(I’m Always Touched by Your) Presence, Dear” and “Fan Mail,” Plastic Letters catches the band right as their blend of punk, pop and new wave was starting to properly take off.

The vinyl has been cleaned and fully play-tested and plays beautifully throughout. The sleeve remains bright and clean overall, although there is noticeable edge wear, hence the G+ grading.

A cracking early UK Blondie pressing with the desirable Porky Prime Cut mastering.

✨ Cleaned and play-tested.
