Description

On offer here is a VERY rare single (especially in this condition!!!!) called "Down The Dust Pipe" by Status Quo and is a Portugese pressing from 1970!!!! The B side is called 'Face Without A Soul'. THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY RARE SINGLE!!!! THIS IS THE RARE PORTUGESE PRESSING WITH A STUNNING RARE PICTURE SLEEVE!!!! DONT MISS OUT!!!! This is an ORIGINAL Pye Pressing on the Pye label and the Cat No is 7N 17907. Any fan of Status Quo, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks!!!! The record is in STUNNING condition!!!! Most of these 60s singles had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only a couple of the lightest scufflines (only visible under light), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It PLAYS STUNNINGLY with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and NO crackle!!!! The single must grade Excellent(Minus)!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The MEGA RARE Flipback picture sleeve is in STUNNING condition for its age!!!! It has only the VERY lightest edge wear, only VERY slight corner wear, NO splits, NO tears, only a few light creases, only a slight record impression, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the back of the picture sleeve is in STUNNING condition with NO writing, only VERY minimal grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!! This is a STUNNING rare picture sleeve and must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!! It really is a STUNNING looking record and it is truly rare to find any copies of this RARE Status Quo single!!!! THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1970 PORTUGESE PRESSING OF 'DOWN THE DUST PIPE' BY STATUS QUO, IN STUNNING CONDITION!!!!
