originally conceived as a compilation of bands who had yet to release anything on vinyl (hence the title), it took a while to come together, by which time i suspect quite a few had already achieved that feat. however, this compilation still serves as a perfect document of many of the bands that were doing the rounds of the tape trading underground at the time, some of whom went on to something bordering mainstream indie success (well hood anyway).released as two double 7" sets artworked by graham lambkin on the fisheye distro label, sadly the long-promised boxes never materialised. but there was an edition of all 4 records that came with instructions on how to make your own. very d.i.y.
