Description

                  GEORGE HARRISON "DING DONG"

ORIGINAL 1974 UK APPLE.

RELEASED DECEMBER 6TH 1974 "DING DONG" WAS GEORGE'S FOURTH SINGLE AND HIS FIRST NOT TO ENTER THE TOP TWENTY. THE SINGLE WAS A FESTIVE SONG FOR THE NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS AND WAS INSPIRED BY ENGRAVINGS ON THE WALLS OF GEORGES HENLEY HOME. THE "B" SIDE "I DONT CARE ANYMORE" IN ALL PROBABILITY REFERS TO GEORGES LAW SUIT OVER THE "HE'S SO FINE/MY SWEET LORD" DEBACLE AND THIS TRACK DOES NOT APPEAR ANYWHERE ELSE IN HARRISONS CATALOGUE.

WHEN ORIGINALLY RELEASED A STRICTLY LIMITED NUMBER WHERE ISSUED IN THE "CLOUD" SLEEVE (BLUE TO WHITE FADE DESIGN.... VERY SIMILAR TO THE LABELS)... ISSUES OF THIS SINGLE IN THIS ORIGINAL SLEEVE ARE NOW VERY RARELY OFFERED FOR SALE AND IT IS NOW ASSUMED THAT HARDLY ANY OF THESE SLEEVES REMAIN!!!!

APPLE R6002 

7YCE.21757/8

THE APPLE PICTURE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. WHEN VIEWED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT THERE APPEARS TO BE NO SPINDLE MARKS PRESENT... LABELS ARE VERY CLEAN AND VIVID AND THERE IS STILL SOME SURPLUS "SWARF" (PLASTIC) PRESENT TO THE SPINDLE HOLE!!!!!!! 

THE GLOSSY MIRROR LIKE VINYL IS IN MINT AND UNPLAYED CONDITION!!!

THE ULTRA RARE "CLOUD" SLEEVE IS SUPERB GIVEN ITS AGE. IT DISPLAYS SOME LIGHT CREASING AND SIGNS OF HANDLING BUT FAR LESS THAN WOULD NORMALLY BE ACCEPTABLE. THIS EXTREMLEY RARE SLEEVE IS TOTALLY INTACT AND FREE FROM ANY WRITING E.T.C.

OVERALL A STUNNING AND POSSIBLY UNPLAYED EXAMPLE OF THIS UK APPLE 1ST PRESSING WHICH IS NOT ONLY ONE OF GEORGE'S RARER SINGLES TO OBTAIN BUT IS ALSO COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL AND NOW IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND SLEEVE....... A REAL MUST HAVE FOR ANY APPLE/HARRISON OR BEATLES COMPLETIST!!!!!!!
