Hello & Welcome

 

"Give Ireland Back To The Irish" - No doubt that this is the rarest and most hard to find Paul McCartney & Wings 7 inch record that was ever pressed in Israel! And it's in great condition! As far as I know this picture sleeve is unique to Israel only and it's such a beauiful picture of Paul and Linda together. It's Paul's first and only "political" song and it was banned by the BBC. The Israeli cover has a Hebrew message printed on it (it's not a sticker) saying: "The protest hit song that was banned in England!! 'Give Ireland Back To The Irish' by Wings (Paul and Linda McCartney)". This record was pressed in Israel in 1972 in a very small quantity and not many bought it (the Israeli vinyl market in those years was very small, most of the Israeli fans prefered to buy a full album and couldn't afford buying 7 inch records). Finding it in a nice condition is so amazingly rare! This is a nice condition! The catalogue number is R 5936.

 

The songs are:

Side one: Give Ireland Back To The Irish

Side two: Give Ireland Back To The Irish (instrumental version)

 

Condition:

 

Cover: The picture sleeve is EX to EX+, it's very nice and preserved (please notice that both sides of the sleeve have the same picture). Front cover: A small removed sellotape stain in the lower right corner near the mouth (it didn't damage the picture sleeve in any way). In the same area there is some writing with a blue pen saying: "VOC-ENS 568-28", I guess this record belonged to a big record collector in the past who catalogued his records by himself, but it's not that bad! Back cover: A tiny removed sellotape stain in the lower left corner near the mouth (it didn't damage the picture sleeve in any way). This is a very beautiful and preserved picture sleeve in great condition! There are no seam splits and it looks almost perfect - simply a beauty! Please look at the pictures, they tell all the story!

 

Record: The record looks EX and sounds nice. The Parlophone labels are in great condition.

 

Shipping: Free shipping worldwide! I ship by a registered airmail.

 

Payment: I accept PayPal only!
