AMBROSE SLADE - Beginnings Of Slade - V rare -Contour

	€		71
	$		82

This is the album that sparked trouble for the UK budget label Contour. They took the track-list from Beginnings - re-jigged it, gave it a nice new modern sleeve and released the album hoping to cash in on Slade's popularity as the best selling British band of the time, - but they didn't get permission so the record was withdrawn from sale but people had already bought it so now they had a highly collectable item (lol)

Again this is a piece of psych and Slade history.

The tracks are the same but in different playing order:

Side 1 - Born To Be Wild / Genesis / Martha My Dear / Ain't Got No Heart / Roach Daddy / Everybody's Next One

Side 2 - Fly Me High / If This World Were Mine / Pity The Mother / Knocking Nails Into My House / Mad Dog Cole / Journey To The Centre Of Your Mind.

Sleeve and vinyl vgc - probably better than that but I will go with vgc and winner won't be dissappointed. Contour records - UK - 6870 678

This was part of an unsold multi - lot - ( see other related items) and I don't hold with low opening bids for items like these and as bids were made on a reserve basis auction I have split the three albums and apportioned the values based on what had been bid. As this is a valuable item I am insisting on registered post only. I need to insure against loss and for that reason I am sorry but I can only post this to Ireland / UK / Europe.

 THE COMBINED POST & PACKAGING ACROSS ALL MY ITEMS POSSIBLE - THE MORE ITEMS YOU BUY THE MORE YOU WILL SAVE ON POSTAGE. IRELAND NOT THE CHEAPEST PLACE FOR POSTAGE I'M AFRAID - PARTICULARLY FOR LP'S BUT AS I WILL BE LISTING A FEW, PURELY AS A GUIDE YOU WOULD BE LOOKING AT €2.50 APPROX FOR AN ADDITIONAL SINGLE SLEEVE ALBUM TO BE POSTED WITH THIS. I WILL WORK WITH YOU FAVOURABLY ON COMBINED POST AND PUT QUITE SIMPLY THE MORE YOU BUY THE BETTER YOU WILL BE FOR POST COSTS
