FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
Yes. It is the 1990 US first edition on Columbia with catalogue number C 45263.

What does Media NM- / Cover VG+ mean?
NM- (Near Mint minus) means close to new with at most minimal signs of use. VG+ (Very Good Plus) means light signs of use that hardly affect the overall impression. The sleeve also has a cut-out hole. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.

What is the cut-out hole in the sleeve?
In the US and Canada, overstock records were marked with a small hole, clipped corner or notch in the sleeve before being sold off cheaply. The record itself is not affected.

Do you have more Love/Hate records?
We currently have no other Love/Hate record in stock. Similar titles are in our Hard Rock collection and our Metal collection.
