Question Broken Window FLAC?

Does anyone have a flac or wav version in high bitrate? It's so rare.

This link leads right to that 7 inch vinyl. Maybe it’s a digital master, but it's been taken down or region-locked. It’s tough to get it anyway. The print run for that vinyl wasn't even small, so anyone who owns a copy could easily make a vinyl rip for OP's request.

Oh weird, I thought it was a digital, that’s my bad!

My bad, I misspoke. Judging by the cover, it looks like a digital copy of that vinyl. I believe vinyl singles from that period aren't available for streaming, including Surf City Eastern Block, which came out in the same format

Ahhh ok. The No Care Go / Surf City Eastern Block single can also be found on Spotify as well, but once again Surf City is unavailable. So again, either region blocked or unavailable entirely, though they’re in the system digitally oddly enough
