DESCRIPTION
When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going is the second studio album by English new wave band Bow Wow Wow, originally released in 1983. It was produced by Mike Chapman, who previously worked with Pat Benatar and Blondie amongst others. It is the final album featuring all four original members of the band and the first album that had no writers other than the band members contributing. At the behest of guitarist Matthew Ashman, vocalist Annabella Lwin wrote all the lyrics on the album. The lead single, “Do You Wanna Hold Me?”, reached #47 in the UK, but fared best on the Dutch charts, where it peaked at #3. With the help of a video in heavy rotation on MTV, the song achieved success in the US. When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going is available as a 40th anniversary edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on translucent pink coloured vinyl and includes an insert. 180 gram audiophile vinyl Includes insert The second full-length studio album featuring the tracks “Do You Wanna Hold Me?”, “Aphrodisiac” and “The Man Mountain” a.o.

Please note I subscribe to eBay Global shipping, therefore all my shipping charges remain the same as above as all international packages are sent to eBay Global within the UK
I Do not set the fees for your shipping internationally, this is automatically set by eBay Global shipping, and therefore I CANNOT send combined shipping invoices for overseas customers, eBay do not combine postage for international customers - IMPORTANT - the shipping fees set go to EBAY and not myself,
I will not ship overseas without going through eBay global because this would mean leaving the Global shipping Programme and the protections I receive as part of being subscribed to it.
