ROCK AND POP MUSIC - DETAILS

I’ve been collecting records and music memorabilia since 1973.  I will be selling records, CD’s, music magazines (mainly Go-Set), memorabilia (mainly Beatles) and music related items over the forthcoming months / years. It will be a bit ‘spasmodic’ depending on my mood and available time!

The pictures show the ACTUAL record that is being sold.  I have tried to show the record as accurately as possible.

The RAREST Monkees EP from Australia released in October 1969, well after their peak.  All songs are sung by Davy Jones, hence his photo only appears on the cover, and his name is prominent on both sides of the cover.  None of the songs were hit singles nor that recognisable to non-Monkees fans, hence sales were very low. 

The Black Cover is susceptible to ring wear and is hard to find in such good condition.  The only issue is a minor crease on top LH FC / RH BC which is hardly noticeable. The record is in Excellent condition and looks like it has hardly been played.
