First Pressing - The Stranglers - Skin Deep 7" Vinyl Single 

1984 Epic A4896 EX VG New Wave

As a 1984 hit that helped the band move from their punk roots to a more refined sound, it is often featured in discussions regarding The Stranglers' extensive 40-year catalog of hits. 

• Original 1984 UK 7" vinyl single of Skin Deep
• Released on Epic Records (catalogue number A4896). 
• This first pressed vinyl is in excellent (EX) condition... clean and glossy with minimal signs of play, and it plays through beautifully with bold, crisp audio and no skips or distortion. 
• The A1-side Skin Deep is a standout track from their Aural Sculpture album era, showcasing a smoother, more melodic side of the band while maintaining their signature edge. 
• The B1-side Here and There adds further value for collectors and fans
• Housed in the original picture sleeve, graded very good (VG), which shows some general handling wear, mild creasing, and light ring wear, but remains intact and presentable with no splits or writing
