THIS IS FROM MY OWN COLLECTION AND I HAVEN'T PLAYED IT SINCE 1966 ish BUT I PLAYED IT TO TEST FOR THE REPRODUCTION AND IT TOOK ME BACK TO WHEN I SAW THEM LIVE IN AROUND 1965.
IT'S SO RAW IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS RECORDED LIVE , NO FANCY GIMMICKS IN THE STUDIOS BACK THEN. BRILLIANT!!!
VINYL CONDITION:
THERE IS A HAIRLINE SURFACE MARK ACROSS SIDE 1 ( SEE PIC) AND IF YOU HOLD IT UP UNDER THE ELECTRIC LIGHT YOU WILL SEE SOME OTHER SURFACE MARKS.
I TEST PLAYED IT THROUGH AND THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY INTRUSIVE CLICKS OR JUMPS , SLIGHT CRACKLE ON RUN INS MAYBE. IT SOUNDS SO GOOD IT TOOK ME BACK. I IMAGINED I WAS IN THE HALL STANDING THERE IN MY MOD OUTFIT WATCHING THEM PLAY !! THEY WERE THE DAYS!! EVERYTHING SEEMED SO SIMPLE THEN. I GRADE IT A VG (BUT IT PLAYS BETTER IMHO)
COVER CONDITION
FRONT COVER HAS A FEW CREASES AND THE OPENING IS A BIT ROUGH (SEE PICS) BACK COVER IS JUST DISCOLOURED BY AGE. OTHER THAN THAT IT IS IN SOLID CONDITION. AN EASY VG.
THE RECORD SLEEVE IS JUST A PLAIN ONE SORT OF AN AGED OFF WHITE COLOUR AND UNGLUED DOWN ONE SIDE. I WILL PUT A NEW GENERIC WHITE IN BUT KEEP THIS AS WELL.
ALL RECORDS SENT OUT IN A FLP STIFF CARDBOARD MAILER. SENT VIA ROYAL MAIL 2nd CLASS SIGNED FOR SERVICE.
ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.
HERE IS A BIT OF POP HISTORY.
GOOD LUCK AND THANKS FOR READING.
