Hello there! Many thanks for perousing my items! When you've looked here, you might like to check out some of my other items, I have some other very rare Beatles etc. items currently listed with many more to come, heck, I'd even suggest you add me to your favourite sellers to keep on top of all the goodies that I'm going to list over the coming months!
I have collected records since I was very young, however Iincreasingly I have realised that I have far too many, and soI have been slowly trying to rationalise my extensive collection over the years, I have sold many major rarities over the years, from major BEATLES and 60s rarities, through PUNK and PROG ROCK, CLASSICAL and BLUES. Basically I've had alot of very rare records and in dribs and drabs have sold them off. I've never had negative feedback, and had many repeat customers. I will only post completely insured and tracked.
This week I'm selling many Beatles/Kinks/Yardbirds Etc. 7" rarities.
Here we have one of the rarest late 60s KINKS singles, DRIVIN' b/w Mindless Child Of Motherhood.



RECORD CONDITION: EX-, As with some of the other singles taken off the ARTHUR album, as this track has such gentle and sparce areas in it, it's very important to have a good quality pressing, and it needs to be in very nice condition, as any imperfections are really shown up on these! This copy has been beautifully cared for, a couple of very light surface lines, visible when angled into direct, strong light are all there is, and the audio is REALLY great!
RECORD LABELS: VG, Let's get the worst of it over first! The original owner has written "IRWIN" on the A-side label in blue ink. These late 60s light blue labels show off any ring-wear that ever happens to them! I've had ex-stock copies of things with these labels that show a darker ring at their high point (about mid-way out), but this copy isn't too bad, it does have a slight darkening of that ring-rubon the high point, but is still very respectable, especially being what style/colour of label it is!
SLEEVE CONDITION: VG+, the very decent and pretty crisp original matt blue Pye company sleeve of this record, a tiny yellowing to a spot on the left hand-side of the front, but no writing/rips etc, just a light handling, and edges are holding strongly, with no wear-throughs, or nicks etc.
