Description

Genesis: The Silent Sun 7" demo (Decca Records F12735)


This is a rare demo copy of the very first Genesis single The Silent Sun, issued by Decca Records in 1968.  It has the Decca demo label design with the original release date of 2-2-68


For a record that is very nearly 51 years old, the single is in an extremely clean condition with absolutely no scratches, marks or discolouration of the playing surfaces of either side of the record.  The labels are also very clean and there is no sign of any scuffs or damage to them.


The single is in a new plain white cover and as a bonus this has been signed by original Genesis drummer Chris Stewart - he has written 'Best wishes from way way back' and has signed his name underneath.  The signature was obtained by me in person.  It can be seen in the third photo.


This record has been in my personal collection for around 20 years and if I remember correctly has only been played once in all that time.


As this is a rare item, I will send it via Royal Mail Special Delivery or Royal Mail International Tracked.


Thanks for looking and please contact me if you have any questions about this item.
