Fu10 The Galician Gotta 45 Exclusive 〈100% FULL〉

In 2023, a copy of FU10 The Galician Gotta 45 Exclusive sold on a private Facebook gear group for €2,400. It was listed as "VG+" (Very Good Plus) with a small scuff on the B-side.

The flipside is slower, heavier, and more political. A droning organ holds down a single chord while the drummer plays a primitive, almost tribal beat. The title, "45 Revolucións," is a bilingual pun: 45 rotations per minute, but also 45 revolutions (as in political uprisings).
