The Jaguars
Now You Wonder Why/We'll Live On Happily
(Contest Records, 1965)

I sold one in November last year and this is my second and final copy

Rare UK Freakbeat 45.

 Recorded at the legendary R G Jones Studio in Morden, Surrey, home to Oak Records.   Fewer than 100 copies of this 45 were pressed and it possibly features Dave Mason of Traffic.

The very few of these that have surfaced have had white labels but as far as I know this was the Ist label, which would make sense since it's basically the same colour as Oak.

There are various light hairlines -more on the flip side. On the flip side there is also an odd mark near the end which I think is a pressing flaw. I have played both sides through. There is a little playing sound but the 'pressing flaw' doesn't seem to do anything particularly. It should also be said that these were not the greatest pressings in the first place. The record has been deep cleaned and still has a good shine and sheen. 

Postage
All Recorded Delivery postage is at cost. All items are extremely well packed. Postage outside of the UK is at cost for each country. I will only post Internationally if 'Signed For' is paid -which costs £5.80 on top of basic postage.
