What Is On Offer
The November 1964 EP RGJ 131 release by the Bo Street Runners
Love To You Lonely Avenue
Bo Street Runner Shame, Shame, Shame
This is one of the orignal 99 copies of this legendary R.G Jones (Morden) OAK Label release.
Most, I believe, were sold after a gig that the band played at the Railway Hotel in Harrow Middlesex, and area most of the band, at the time, came from.
Condition
Vinyl - Near mint (NM). I have only played this copy once and that was prior to listing it here on ebay and I doubt it got played more than onc eor twice before I purchased. I rarely use NM as a grading, but in this instance it is well justified.
Label - Again NM
Sound - Great sound, I played it through prior to listing and no problems on either side
Cover - I have conservatively graded this as VG+. It is hard to grade this cover as it was handmade in the first place and so was never up to the standards of a Columbia or Parlophone EP sleeve. It does have a couple of creases but I doubt you will find a better example. The plain white rear of the sleeve has the number 244 written in black (see images).
Reason for sale.
My musical tastes have changed in recent years so I need to let a few UK gems go to fund some US garage purchases...
Please look out for my other items currently on ebay. A few other gems coming which may include things such a stock Allen Pound, Barrier Picture Sleeve and stock Him & The Others to name but a few... as the Artwoods would say 'Keep Looking'
I am a collector, not a trader.
I am very proud of my 100% ebay feedback and always strive to grade fairly. Any problems please just get in touch.
Happy bidding folks...
Unless you are going to make a silly offer (as in high) all my items will run through to the auction end in 7 days from now.
Postage will be registered signed for on this record. I will charge no more that £5 for UK buyers and cover the shortfall myself. For overseas buyers the £10 indicated is just a guess as it really will depend on what the record sells for in the end (so it can get expensive remember as I will not take any risks, items are posted fully insured only); so please wait for my invoice at the end of the auction. I don't agree with sellers making money on postage so will always refund, via paypal, any savings I can make...
