Seems worth it just to have a real product in your sticky mitts.

Disappointed it doesn't have this on it.


Was it a single?

I have Du the Du (Casse) on two Factory 12" singles. The first is on FACUS4 where it is the lead track: Du The Du (Casse), The Fox, Flight, And Then Again.

The Second is FACDP1204 which is a 2x12" release on Factory Australia with Flight, Blown Away, And Then Again on the frst disc and then the four tracks from FACUS4 on the second 12".

The Factory Double was also released on Factory Italy and Factory New Zeeland, but I have never seen copies.

Du The Du (Casse) never saw a local UK release as a single and was never released on 7". Other than that it is a superb track and I possibly need to get out a bit more.

Beware of Music Magpie CDs. I've received more than a handful with fungus, even after lots of complaining, so I no longer buy from the.

Magpie not perfect but have always treated me well.
Fungus on the CD ?!
Not good, but won't it wash off with warm soapy water ?

I’ll bump this as it finishes tonight. I don’t know if the fungus mentioned above only affected second hand purchases, but I ought to point out that all of these are brand new CDs. I’ve gone for the Dolphy and a second hand copy of ‘Thelonious Monk Trio’ to push me over £25.

Fungus feeds on the polycarbonate layer. I wonder if it will feed on the surface of the laser lens...

I remember that, in the days before I had CDs :)
Nothing since 2001 that I can find plus...

Even though this fungus widespread it could only develop on a CD in high humidity and high temperature, which is not the case most of the time
