Train in Vain (Stand By Me)/ London Calling

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original factory sleeve. This great single's B side — the title song from the awesome double album of the same name — is a dark but eminently danceable punk/grunge\r\ntune, the polar opposite of the bright and catchy A side, the group's first U.S. hit. It was the B side that Marsh included in his 1001 greatest singles list. The A side did appear on London Calling, but you wouldn't know it from the record's song lists: The group hid it as an uncredited, unlisted track at the end of the last of the album's four sides. Note: These copies may exhibit light storage wear on the labels, which is why the Label grade is Near Mint while the vinyl and audio are pristine.
