REACTION - 592001
The classic original EP from 1966 on Reaction by The Who. Recorded from their live appearance on the UK tv programme 'Ready Steady Go' in which they were the only band and the show was even called 'Ready Steady Who' for the occasion. This EP features some of the best tracks recorded at that show.
I believe it's the first 7" by The Who to feature a picture sleeve and interestingly was not eligible for chart inclusion (it's an EP) on release in 1966 hence the reason it doesn't appear in UK charts from the 60's. However the 1983 re-issue on Polydor/Reaction made the charts at 58. This is the original.
There are a couple of light surface marks to the record but it plays extremely well I would describe it as excellent minus. The cover is in an excellent condition with some slight age related staining to the back.
For grading see bottom of page.
Payment:-
Full payment should be made within five days of the auction ending. I prefer PayPal but I will accept cheques drawn on a UK bank and cash on collection, any other method please ask before bidding. Despatch will be made within five days of full payment received and cleared, this is because I work 12hr shifts and sometimes cannot get to a Post Office. Non-payers will be dealt with in the usual way.
Postage:-
For UK purchasers the item will be sent by 2nd class post.
For Overseas purchasers the cost is:- Europe - £2.50, USA/Japan/Australia/New Zealand/Rest of World - £3.50. If in doubt please ask before bidding.
Returns:-
If unsatisfied you may return the item within seven days of receipt for a full refund less the cost of postage. Refund will be given once the item has been received and checked. In the event of non-delivery a refund will be issued once the Royal Mail have investigated and refunded me.
Many thanks, happy bidding and please check my other stuff….
I try to grade records according to the...
Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:
"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
