Introduction:
This is a RECORD from my private collection of 1960s 7” singles. I will be listing a lot over the coming weeks.
In each listing
the condition of the vinyl is mostly at least VG (using RC guidelines) but many are in
MUCH better condition and each is described accordingly, - some look hardly
played. There may be some ‘not so rare’ copies offered for sale, but they are listed because the condition is so special, or others are listed because there is a rarity factor but the condition is not so good.
In some cases the records I have selected for sale are hard to find in any condition while others are ideal ‘collection improver’
copies.
Unless it came in a picture sleeve, all individually listed records come in a correct era company
sleeve.
This listing is for a 7” single record:
Artist DEAN PARRISH
Record I'm on my way / Watch Out!
Label UK American Records – original UK pressing from 1972
Serial No. USA 2
Condition This is a very sought after record! BUT PLEASE READ THE NEXT BIT!
An original 1972 pressing in SUPER visual condition and its appearance suggests a few plays only.
But when play testing it, there was a continuous surface noise which was disappointing. Maybe it just needs a good professional clean which i do not have the facilities for. It started smoothly, there are no pops, no jumps, it doesn't stick, there are no cracks in the vinyl - i just can't see why it doesn't play more fluently - as i said, it looks fantacstic! Labels - the labels are mainly clean with very few spindle marks but there is a very slight 'stain' around the 'UK' title logo. see pic.
The SLEEVE is VG - Just LIGHT corner creases, some writing on the reverse side and a small repaired tear around the diecut hole to spoil it.
So not a perfect copy by any means but at a realistic starting price of £2.99 (These fetch a lot of dosh if in the right condition) – DON’T MISS OUT!
All my records are dispatched in purpose-made outers for maximum protection in the post. Pleased trust my 100% feedback and do ask questions if you need to know more. Money back guarantee – return postage not refunded. Thanks for looking.
