FAC14C Flexi Disc: Durutti Column ā The Return Of The Durutti Column
The legendary āTest Cardā flexi-disc issued in 1979 alongside the first pressings of The Durutti Columnās debut album, The Return of The Durutti Column (FACT 14). Pressed by Lyntone, this 7ā flexi featured two electronic tracks by Martin Hannett, Factory Recordsā visionary producer:
-
The First Aspect of the Same Thing
-
The Second Aspect of the Same Thing
The album itself was issued in the now-mythic sandpaper sleeve, a Situationist-inspired gesture designed to physically scratch other records in a collection. Alongside that radical packaging, this flexi added another layer of Factoryās experimental ethos, with Hannettās minimalist electronics offering a window into the sound experiments that shaped Joy Division, A Certain Ratio, and countless others.
Though the sandpaper sleeve has become iconic, the Test Card flexi is equally coveted, especially when separated from its fragile original packaging.
Format: 7ā flexi-disc
Catalogue number: FAC 14C
All items in this Collection are shipped from the UK.
