Description
A SUPER RARE ONE SIDED ACETATE FOR SCOTT ENGEL (MISS-SPELT ENGLE ON LABEL)
THIS IS THE ONLY KNOWN COPY TO EXIST AND WAS FROM THE SAME RECORDING SESSIONS
THAT WAS TO SPAWN THE LIBERTY EP "SCOTT ENGEL" CAT NUMBER LEP2261.
THE RECORDING DATESA FOR THESE SESSIONS WERE CIRCA 1961 / 62.
THE "PARADISE COVE" TRACK IS A TRULY LOVELY RECORD, WITH A DISTINCTIVE HAWAIIAN FEEL TO IT.
IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT SCOTT PLAYED AT THE CIVIC AUDITORIUM, HONOLULU IN 1958,
SO IT IS PERFECTLY PLAUSIBLE THAT PARADISE COVE "WAS WRITTEN / CONCEIVED AT THAT TIME AND KEPT UNTIL HIS RECORD DEAL WITH LIBERTY CAME ABOUT.
AS STATED, THIS IS A 10 INCH SINGLE SIDED ACETATE ON THE LIBERTY LABEL.
******CONDITION*******I HAVE PLAYED THIS ONLY ONCE BECAUSE OF IT'S RARITY VALUE AND IT PLAYED THROUGH WITH NO PROBLEMS.
THERE ARE SEVERAL SMALL NICKS TO THE OUTER EDGE OF THE RECORD AND ALSO A COUPLE OF SCUFFS / SCRATCHES.
FORTUNATELY HOWEVER, THESE OCCUR BEFORE THE START OF THE RUN IN GROOVES, SO DOES NOT COMPROMISE THE PLAY QUALITY AT ALL.
IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS RARITY, PLEASE ASK.
BECAUSE OF THE FRAGILE NATURE OF THIS ITEM, WE CANNOT POST WITHIN THE UK FOR £4.50, SO WE WILL SEND IT SPECIAL DELIVERY / SIGNED FOR.
UK POSTAGE £7.00
INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE £14.00
