Description
Otis Clay “The only way is up” 3:46 / “Special kind of love” 3:16 (US Echo 2003) original American 7” vinyl single released out of Chicago, Illinois in 1980.
Echo Records, Chicago, Ill 60637.
Put it this way “The Only Way Is Up” sounded brilliant when I first heard it as a new release in 1980 and 30 years down the line it still holds that magic.
That’s the mark of a true classic.
And don’t overlook the wonderful mid pace flipside.
Matrixes: scratched PRC-2003-A / PRC-2003-B
Record: styrene, shiny deep gloss with odd ultra light surface mark – Excellent.
Label: super clean silver paper with black text - Excellent.
Please note: All / any sound clips and label scans added to my listings are taken directly from the copy offered up for auction.
Basic Postage: UK first class large letter £1.50p; Europe air mail small packet £2; Rest of the World air mail small packet £3.
For UK buyers I would much prefer payment by a good old fashioned cheque - if this isn't possible, payment through Paypal is just fine and dandy and the only method of payment I will accept for overseas buyers.
I always combine postage for multiple purchases but please wait for an invoice from me first.
All records are well packed with care and obsessive attention and generally posted within 2 days of payment received.
I try and grade all records as accurately as my eyes and ears will allow. But bear in mind I’m human just like you, so if you think I’ve made a mistake, get in touch straight away and a solution will be found.
Proof of postage is obtained for every item to aid tracking, recovery and compensation in the rare event of damage or loss whilst in the care of the Post Office.
Please check my other records for sale if time and inclination permits.
Onwards,
Derek
