Please make sure you're happy with the shipping costs before bidding. Due to past claims for non delivery, I will now only ship by secure "Signed For" service in line with eBay recommended policy with tracking number provided for peace of mind. Please be mindful of this when leaving feedback. Thank you for your understanding.
Apart from some minimal clicks on the 570A side, here's a stunning original 1966 UK White and Red Demo copy of this classic 'B' side dance tune (570B) from STEVIE WONDER with "AIN'T THAT ASKING FOR TROUBLE" on the UK TAMLA MOTOWN imprint # TMG 570 and backed with a great cover version of the Bob Dylan classic (570A), "BLOWIN' IN THE WIND".
This copy plays superbly throughout on the all important '570B' side with top audible quality and remains in mint minus condition with minimal crackle on the run-in and run-out groove and with the lightest of surface sleeve rubs not affecting play. Meanwhile, the '570A' side is in excellent plus condition with two almost invisible surface scratches causing a very light click during the first few seconds of play and again for around 5 seconds about two thirds through play. It has the 4-prong centre intact and the labels are very clean on both sides with just the odd minor blemish and without any written Radio Station annotations and with minimal spindle wear. Paired with an original company sleeve and still very much a top copy for the DJ or collector (see picture scans).
The record has been play graded and is from my personal collection that I'm downsizing so why not check out my other listings for more great sounds. Postage discounts available for multiple purchases with up to three 45's shipped at the single record rate. In this case, please save to basket and request total from seller and wait for invoice before making payment.
As this record will sell for an amount in excess of standard Royal Mail compensation levels, it will be shipped in a stiffened card outer by Royal Mail Special Delivery "B4-1" service only at a cost of £7.99 in the UK or, overseas by "Signed For" service at the costs indicated. This provides protection for both parties in the unlikely event of loss.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT FEEDBACK WILL ALWAYS BE LEFT BUT ONLY AFTER FIRST RECEIVING THE SAME.
