RSD 2020 release. Munster Records present the first vinyl reissue of Warsaw Pakt's Needle Time, originally released in 1977. "Real high-energy rock'n'roll in its most potent form is best captured live and in the moment. Maximum thrills, minimum frills. In 1977, London's Warsaw Pakt took that premise one step further, recording their album live, straight through, direct to the cutting lathe -- no tape master, no overdubs, no mixing. The record was pressed, packed, and shipped overnight and was in the record stores the following day . . . 'The idea was to bypass tape and gain a very accurate recording that would be louder and clearer than any other method then available,' remembers guitarist Andy Colquhoun. If the recording method was motivated by an element of gimmickry, no matter, the blazing urgency of the band's performance, combined with a set of edgy, memorable songs makes Needle Time one of the most exciting releases of the '70s punk era. It's also one of the most neglected. The Pakt favored a high-revving formula with hard-boiled street-smart lyrics delivered quick and cool against super-charged Chuck Berry guitar licks, a modus operandi much like the MC5 circa Back in the USA, but with a vibe that was more attuned to the pubs and squats of their native Ladbroke Grove. Though given a punk rock paint job, the sound is redolent with the fumes of high-octane British R&B, a dead giveaway of their roots, as The Rockets. Along with some choice cover versions, like The Who's 'It's Not True', they looked to the old Rockets songbook and retooled material written by Andy with the Rockets' old manager Frank Day, including some great songs like 'Fruit Machine', 'Dogfight', 'Speeding', and 'Sick n' Tired'. Although R&B based, these tracks all had plenty of attitude and aggression, so worked well in their new 'punkier' context. 'Safe and Warm' was recorded as the single in October 1977, and in the studio the band created a uniquely moody, almost psychedelic sound, Coull laying down a soulful vocal over Colquhuon's screaming guitar lines and Manly's supporting rhythm licks, while some strikingly eerie harmony back-ups add a magical finishing touch. A month later, Warsaw Pakt assembled at Trident Studios to record their 'Instant Album'. Less than 24 hours later, with the band's fingers still bleeding, Needle Time was released . . . More than forty years later, though, Needle Time stands as one of the most authentic documents of the lean, visceral sound of London punk rock in its banner year." --Mike Stax, Ugly Things Magazine Includes 7". Includes insert with extensive liner notes by Mike Stax (Ugly Things Magazine) and individually hand customized record cover.

Perfect fit and great quality for the price
This suit was perfect for my son. The fit was exactly as expected. The quality is excellent for the price—it feels well made and durable enough to last through multiple wears. It doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy at all. It also looks really good on him. Clean, polished, and great for formal events like weddings or parties. Overall, a fantastic value with great quality and a great fit.

Missing items
Color: Sky Blue, Size: 16
Was missing the tie that is supposed to come with it and it looked like it was tried on and thrown back in the bag. The sleeve to the jacket were rolled up.

Excellent Quality, Great Value, Great Look. Highly Recommend
Very well-made, there are some minor imperfections in the cuff sewing that aren't really noticeable when on. Liner is quality, color is spot on, and it fits true to size. If you're in the market for a toddler blazer and pants, you can't go wrong with this one in terms of quality, price, and the cut is perfect for a very polished look. There were a few loose strings to be clipped, but everything was correctly sewn and well. None of them affected the seam strength. The pants have a button and elastic on the waistband to make adjusting the waist size easier.

Great boys slim fit suit for weddings, church, or special events
Color: Medium Grey, Size: 12
Great kids suit. Comes with a jacket, pants, and tie. Does not have a shirt. Fits as expected. Classic cut on the lapels. Great quality materials. Well made pants and jacket. The color is consistent without any fade or dark spots that can happen with lower quality fabrics. Looks great on. My son loves it. Says it is not restrictive, he can move easily in it. Highly recommend for church, special events, weddings, etc.

Nice high-quality, light weight suit for a tween!
Color: Navy Blue, Size: 10
This is such an attractive suit for a tween boy! My son loves dressing up, and this is his new favorite suit. He really likes the double-breasted style and the light weight of the fabric so that it isn't too hot. The tie that came with it gives major Harry Potter vibes which we weren't expecting, but he has lots of other ties that he also enjoys pairing with it. The size seems right, and it fits him well. He says it is very comfortable. I'm happy with the quality and the navy color.
