Coxsone Records CS7009/CS5021 and issued in 1967. A side BA-BA-BOOM, the Jamaica 1967 Festival Tune by Jackie Mittoo and the Soul Vendors. B side MERCY MERCY by Slim Smith and the Freedom Singers. Bought new in 1967 and stored away for more than 40 years- super rare and hard to find. 

No means to play but close study of the record and RCM guide below, conservatively gives this vinyl a visual grading of at least VG or better. Original plain sleeve that the single came with, without tears and just the catalogue number and another that had been crossed out written in RH corner and some age related discolouration to paper. Minimal playing of A side and can't ever recall playing the B side. Some light reflections, dust attracted

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

 The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
