The record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with NO writing, only some very VERY minimal light grubbyness (barely ANY), and only a few light spindle marks!!!!  The record isnt perfect visually - but it certainly plays VERY well indeed!!!!  Most of these 60s singles had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This record is NOT (and plays BRILLIANTLY) - though it does have a few visually obvious surface marks, a few scufflines, a few light hairlines, and only a few light paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! However despite this - THE RECORD STILL RETAINS A VERY BLACK AND SHINY APPEARANCE!!!!  It is GREAT to find that the record plays EVEN BETTER than the visuals with barely ANY clicks/pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, NO hiss, a brief surface sound (NOT groovewear) on one run on groove, and only some slight background crackle on the run on grooves!!!!  There is NO distortion and NO groovewear either - and this single still plays VERY well indeed!!!!  The single must grade visually Fair++++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT 'wrecked') if not better - with the playing grade MUCH better still!!!! THIS RECORD PLAYS BRILLIANTLY!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in an ORIGINAL 1st Press Island company sleeve!!!!  IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE - THAT EVEN THOUGH THIS SINGLE ISNT VISUALLY MINT, IT HAS BRILLIANT UNWRITTEN LABELS, PLAYS BRILLIANTLY, AND LOOKS SUPERB INSIDE ITS COMPANY SLEEVE!!!!  ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT TO MENTION IS THAT THIS IS QUITE SIMPLY ONE OF THE RAREST SINGLES EVER - AND IT WILL SURELY BE A VERY VERY LONG TIME (IF EVER) BEFORE YOU GET ANOTHER CHANCE TO OWN THIS AGAIN!!!!  SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
