Columbia DB 7939, 1966.

We’re having a bit of a clearout of stuff at home so I’ve put my usual eBay sales of art and ephemera mostly to one side for a few weeks. I’ve got a large personal collection of vinyl, lots of which I don’t play any more, so one of the things I will be selling is records. If you would like to see the others that are currently live on eBay, please click on View Other Items above.

I guess, since you are viewing this listing, it is probable that you don’t need any introduction to this recording, which has become a cult classic over the years - and not just among its natural audience of garage band / freakbeat collectors. The single was not a big seller on its initial release so good, original examples are hard to find these days.

This particular copy is in very nice condition. It does have a fair number of fine lines on the playing surface but there is nothing that interferes with the sound quality. The record plays extremely well on both sides with no intrusive pops or clicks. The labels on both sides are in good condition too. I didn’t buy this single new in 1966 but I’ve certainly owned this copy since the 1970s and I do look after my records.

UK Postage and packing:  £2.20

International postage and packing:  Postage charges to international destinations are given below.

All postage prices quoted (UK and international) are maximum charges.  If postage and packing costs less than these estimates, I will refund the difference after posting (subject to the difference being £1.00 or more. Unless otherwise indicated, the postage prices I give in the listing are for a tracked and signed-for service, as required by eBay. If however, winning buyers would prefer cheaper options, I am always happy to help with that if I can. Please contact me for a quote.

I hope this description has given you enough to go on but should you require any further information, or more images, please do e-mail.  Please also look carefully at the hi-res photos – they are part of the description.  Thanks for your interest in this auction and good luck if you decide to bid.

Please note:  I will not respond to requests to close the auction early regardless of the value of the offer made.  Ending early is contrary to both the principle and spirit of an auction. It is also unfair to other eBayers who may be watching the auction intending to bid at a later time.
