THIS IS TRULY A VERY SPECIAL ITEM INDEED - AS IT IS A 100% GENIUNE ARCHIVE COPY SENT TO THE ARCHIVE FROM THE FACTORY IN 1964.  Often you see people put 'Archive Copy' for just about every item they sell that is in nice condition - when you probably know they have never ever been near an archive!!!!  But a GENIUNE Archive Copy is very VERY different.  This EP came from a Music Publishers Archive which closed down in 2014.  It was strictly used for REFERENCE ONLY and the EP was only EVER handled by professionals.  THEREFORE IT HAS REMAINED IN TRULY AMAZING CONDITION!!!!  YOU MAY HAVE SEEN COPIES OF THIS EP BEFORE - BUT THE CHANCES OF EVER FINDING ANOTHER 1ST PRESSING LIKE THIS ONE AGAIN, IS VIRTUALLY ZERO!!!!  Please read on about this AMAZING item below:-

No is DFE 8560 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press UNBOXED Decca label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS EP HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL (5 PLAYS OR LESS)!!!!  The vinyl is in AWESOME condition!!!!  Most of these 60s EPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, only 2 or 3 ULTRA light surface traces (no doubt from the original pressing), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Excellent++++ if not MINT(Minus)!!!!  AWESOME RECORD!!!!  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 ORIGINAL 1st Press 'MacNeill' Flipback Laminated MONO Cover is in absolutely AMAZING condition, as been in a plastic cover FROM NEW, and is so STUNNING you couldn't return it to a record shop!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, NO corner wear (PERFECT shape to ALL corners!), NO creases (seriously I have tried very VERY hard indeed to find a crease - but I cannot find ANY!), VERY shiny laminate, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in AWESOME condition with NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, PERFECT flipbacks, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  In fact, the ONLY thing you can possibly mention about this cover (and 99% of people would NEVER see it!) - is if you angle it and look really REALLY hard you can see the very VERY faintest central boss impression under light, simply from the record sitting inside the cover!!!!  I never EVER thought I would be grading this EP cover a TRUE MINT(Minus) grading - but I am more than happy to here, with NO reservations AT ALL!!!!  AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING COVER!!!!  THIS EP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (IT IS EASILY THE BEST CONDITIONED 1ST PRESSING I HAVE EVER SEEN!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
