THE SYN CREATED BY CLIVE / GROUNDED DERAM - DM 130 1967
I'M OFFERING UP A TREASURED SYN SINGLE. I PURCHASED THIS SINGLE AT A SHOP IN LONDON BACK IN 1990. THE DERAM SLEEVE IS IN FAIR SHAPE. IT HAS "REGIS RECORD CENTRE" STAMPED ON IT. THE VINYL ITSELF IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION. CENTER-PUNCH STILL INTACT. I CAN ONLY OFFER A VISUAL GRADING ON THIS. IT APPEARS TO BE VERY CLEAN, NO VISUAL SCRATCHES THOUGH IT LIKELY WAS PLAYED. I NEVER PLAYED IT.
I WAS ABLE TO HAVE BOTH FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE SYN, CHRIS SQUIRE AND STEVE NARDELLI SIGN THE SLEEVE. SIGNED WITH A BLACK SHARPIE IN 2006 ON THEIR BRIEF REUNION TOUR. CHRIS WAS IN A GREAT MOOD AFTER THE SHOW AND NOT ONLY SIGNED THE SLEEVE HE WENT ON TO SIGN THE LABEL OF THE DISC A FEW MINUTES LATER WITH AN INK PEN (A SMALL HANDFUL OF FANS WERE EXCHANGING PENS AND ITEMS FOR CHRIS TO SIGN. CHRIS KEPT LOOKING AND HOLDING THE ORIGINAL PRESSINGS THE ENTIRE TIME AND THUS THE WRITING INSTRUMENT CHANGE). I WASN'T GOING TO ARGUE NOR STOP HIM. IT WAS A MAGICAL FEW MINUTES WITH ONE OF THE GREATEST BASS PLAYERS ON EARTH. THE CHRIS AUTOGRAPH IS A TAD SLOPPY ON THE LABEL SINCE HE WAS SIGNING IT AS HE HELD IT IN HIS BIG HANDS AND NOT ON A TABLE AS HE CONTINUED TO TALK WITH US. CHRIS DID THE SAME LABEL AUTOGRAPH WITH THE OTHER 45 I HAVE UP FOR SALE AS WELL. SEE ALL THE PHOTOS FOR A CLOSER INSPECTION.
I WAS ABLE TO ATTEND BOTH THE SAN DIEGO AND LOS ANGELES "THE SYN" CONCERTS IN 2006. AT A TINY OLD CHURCH HALL IN SAN DIEGO AND AT THE KNITTING FACTORY IN LOS ANGELES.
