                      SUPER RARE 1965  ORIGINAL

     = SOUTH AFRICAN BRITISH INVASION BEATROCKER =

     RONNIE SINGER & KEITH MOFFAT

               And The

                004's                 

              South Africa - GALLOTONE - GALP 1380 (MONO)

SUPER RARE ...Original 1965 first pressing from South Africa in glorious mono ... the cover contains the old style "flipback' seams, common with British & European cover from the sixties... Not much known about the duo of Ronnie Singer (organ/vocals) & Keith Moffat (drums) other than Ronnie Singer was an established hipster who played with some of the cool '60s bands in South Africa and released a very rare beatrockin' solo album, "Battle Of The Beats" ...there were ties to the South African beat/garage band the "OO4's" who issued a very rare/collectible album themselves ... Here they back Singer/Moffat creating a surprisingly strong beat/garage album "The Clifton Beat" with plenty of happening raves & thrills up & down both sides of this platter. All organ/reverb guitar dominated, the crew have the UK beat/Beatlemania sound down adding their own creative touches injected making for a solid album that will win over most any fan of '60s rock, garage, and sounds of the British Invasion ...

Don't hold your breath waiting for another copy, it's as rare as they come....

CONDITION: The cover:  For a 47 year old super rare teen scene artifact, the fragile cover is in pretty great shape, having only some light handling crinkles 'round the edges and otherwise a South African record store sticker on back cover ... grade strong VG+(+) having no split seams, no writing and contains fresh original colors (no fading)

The vinyl: thick weighty platter is in GREAT shape, still retaining original glossy luster, its VG++ with no more than some light top surface haior scuffs that are not audible. The deep groove pressing plays with excellent audio ... 

keeper!
