Review: Stealers Wheel on Vinyl: "Stealers Wheel" and "Ferguslie Park"
Intervention Records launched in 2015 with a simple mission statement: "To provide archive-quality LPs of music we love," with the goal that "each record we do must be the single definitive, final version of that album, the one real music lovers will seek out."
