Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

1964 RARE first album ~~ BEAT BOOM UK INVASION COLLECTIBLE
A BEAUTIFUL ARCIVE COPY!!
STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER
THE HOLLIES
\ USA -IMPERIAL RECORDS - LP 9265
A RARELY SEEN BEAUTIFUL MINT "ARCHIVE COPY"
49 years old!!!
RARE original 1964 MONO first pressing... This is a weight HEAVY platter of the old '60s kind...and a very hard to find USA release of the very first Hollies album. Impreial records issued it with a different cover & title ("Stay With The Hillies" in the UK). The Hollies were step for step with The Beatles in the UK singles charts and were on the fab four's heels for a few years...
INCLUDES THE ORIGINAL "IMPERIAL RECORDS" inner sleeve , rarely seen
STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER!
The Hollies reached number two on the UK album charts with their first release featuring a unique sound and harmony blends beat group. 'Little Lover' is a tough edge groove, unlike their pop perfection sound, but it works -- otherwise the sound is strong Merseybeat circa 'Please Please Me' by The Beatles but The Hollies overall sound is more akin to Lennon than McCartney and The Hollies lack the wild abandon of The Beatles circa the cavern club days. The hit single here is 'Stay' which is as good as anything by the Beatles up to the time...much better is 'You Better Move On' a moody tune the Stones put the clamps on. The Hollies have a mean guitar sound though, some of the solos outstrip the efforts of The Beatles around this time. For all the bands pouring out of Liverpool, EMI were smart enough to also look right towards nearby Manchester. The Hollies had stage charisma, could harmonise and seemed a good bet, as later would be proved. The Hollies never got the respect other acts did on the albums front, however and to this day are seen as a singles act by many. They released a lot of strong albums and reappraisal has well been underway with album collectors around the globe...
