Re: (TV) "Marquee Moon" seven inch? Rare?

Don't know if the copy you saw was from the uk or not. What I remember
though is that when Marquee Moon came out in the uk it was around the time
when they were first really trying to push the 12" single and when I bought
my copy it was being advertised as being the same price as the 7"( same when
Venus came out). Bearing in mind that on the 12" MM didn't have to be split
over 2 sides of vinyl I suppose it was only natural that it did not sell in
quantities, and, probably, was not pressed in large quantities. I don't see
the 7"  MM nearly as often as the 7" Venus, however, in both cases the 12"
are far more common and I see them all the time(that applies to Foxhole as
well).

I was always disappointed that the 7inchers did not come out in pic sleeves,
but again, I suppose Elektra  wanted to encourage the 12 inchers.

Nick(who is in a good mood as he's just found his cassette copy of the Blow
Out which has been missing for several months).
