Description
ROCKSLIDE...JUMP BUMP BOOGALOO RARE 7" BLACK VINYL SINGLE ON REWARD RECORDS CAT. NO. MAG 0004 FROM 1975.
ROCKSLIDE FROM MANCHESTER WERE A GLAM/TEENY BOP/POWER POP BAND VERY MUCH IN THE STYLE OF THE BAY CITY ROLLERS. BUT THEY COULD PLAY VERY WELL. THIS SINGLE WAS THEIR SOLE RELEASE IN 1975. THEN CAME 1976 AND THE BIRTH OF PUNK. THREE OF THE BAND MORPHED INTO THE DRONES, BROUGHT IN ANOTHER GUITARIST AND BECAME ONE OF MANCHESTERS FINEST BUT SHORT LIVED PUNK BANDS.
AS THIS WAS PRESSED ON THE LOCAL AND INDEPENDENT REWARD RECORDS, AND THE CATALOGUE NUMBER COMES FROM THE NAME OF THE STUDIO, I CAN ONLY PRESUME IT WAS SELF FINANCED AND PRESSED IN A VERY LIMITED QUANTITY. HOWEVER I CANNOT FIND ANYWHERE HOW MANY WHERE IN FACT PRESSED.
ANY REPORTS THAT THESE GUYS WHERE PUNK PIONEERS AT THIS TIME, AS SOME HAVE TRIED TO MAKE IN THE PAST, ARE COMPLETELY UNFOUNDED LISTENING TO THIS, ALTHOUGH, GIVE THEM THEIR DUE, THEY WERE GOOD MUSICIANS BASED ON THESE TRACKS.
THE VINYL IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION IN APPEARANCE. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF LIGHT MARKS, WHICH ARE GENERALLY ONLY COSMETIC. THERE IS A LIGHT MARK ON SIDE 2 AT THE START WHICH LOOKS LIKE A STAIN, BUT IT APPEARS TO BE A PRESSING MARK. PLAYING ON BOTH SIDES IS EXCELLENT WITH SOME VERY LIGHT MINOR CRACKLE AT THE START DURING THE INTRO AND VERY END. THERE IS ALSO SOME VERY LIGHT OCCASIONAL CRACKLE IN A FEW OTHER PARTS, BUT IT DOES PLAY EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT ON BOTH SIDES. THE MOULDED PLASTIC LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CLEAN CONDITION.
COMES IN A WHITE DIE CUT PAPER SLEEVE WHICH MAY NOT BE THE ORIGINAL BUT IT WAS NEVER RELEASED IN A PICTURE SLEEVE.
TRACKS AS FOLLOWS:
SIDE 1. JUMP BUMP BOOGALOO
SIDE 2. ROLLER COASTER
I AM PRESUMING THIS WILL NEED TO GO BY ROYAL MAIL SPECIAL DELIVERY SO HAVE INCREASED MY NORMAL VINYL SINGLE PRICE FOR POSTING ACCORDINGLY.
N.B. - U.K. BIDDERS ONLY. FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE I AM NOT SELLING OUTSIDE THE UK. SORRY BUT THIS IS DUE TO BREXIT AND NEW RULES FOR USING THE EBAY G.S.P. HOPEFULLY I WILL GET BACK TO SOME SORT OF NORMALITY EVENTUALLY.
AS A COLLECTOR MYSELF, MY RECORDS, TAPES AND CD'S HAVE BEEN STORED PROPERLY OVER THE YEARS. RECORDS WILL BE SENT OUT IN CARDBOARD MAILERS WITH INTERNAL STIFFENERS. PLEASE SEE MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE.
ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE E MAIL ME. ANY PROBLEMS AT ALL AFTER SALE HAS FINISHED, PLEASE COMMUNICATE WITH ME FIRST BEFORE LEAVING FEEDBACK.
