Description
ATTENTION 1960s BEAT GROUPS AND JOE MEEK PRODUCTIONS COLLECTORS!
HERE IS A HARD TO FIND ORIGINAL USA PRESSING OF THE 1964 1ST HONEYCOMBS ALBUM IN MONO: "HERE ARE THE HONEYCOMBS"-SIMPLY CALLED "THE HONEYCOMBS"IN THE UK AND ISSUED ON THIS USA EDITION ON THE INTERPHON LABEL WITH THE EARLIEST "GROOVED" LABELS.IN 88001. THIS ALBUM RARELY TURNS UP FOR SALE 49 YEARS LATER AS GOOD AS THIS OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE ESPECIALLY IN GUTSY SOLID MONO! THE RECORD ITSELF IS IN STRICTLY GRADED NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA FAINT SURFACE MARKS.I STUGGLED TO HEAR ANY SURFACE NOISE-NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS-STRICTLY GRADED WITH VERY NICE SOUND! CLEAN LABELS-NO WRITING! NO SPINDLE WEAR! MOST COPIES THAT WERE SOLD 49 YEARS AGO IN 1964 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AND WAS NOT A BIG SELLER IN THE USA! THE COVER IS VERY CLEAN UNLIKE MOST AMERICAN COVERS OF THE ERA-NO WRITING,NO STAINING,NO RIPS,NO SPLITS,NO REPAIRS. THERE IS A LITTLE EDGE WEAR AT THE TOP BUT THAT IS MINIMAL AND THE WORD "MERCO" RUBBER STAMPED AT THE BACK.VERY CLEAR PRINTING. A REAL JOY FOR ANY 1960s MUSIC FAN!
NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!
MOST WILL REMAIN ON COLLECTORS SHELVES!
THIS IS A LOVELY THICK VINYL 1ST PRESSING!
THIS 1ST ISSUE FROM 1964 HAS FAR MORE BASS AND MUCH THICKER VINYL AS WELL AS A MUCH THICKER COVER THAN LATER 1970s and 1980s REISSUES WHICH HAD WAFER THIN VINYL! GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!
GREAT INVESTMENT!!!
TOTALLY FLAT VINYL! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!
YOU MIGHT FIND CHEAPER COPIES BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL BE AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE!
YOU'LL LOVE IT FOR YEARS AND HOPEFULLY WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN!
SUPERB MONO SOUND PLUS THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF THE BASS THAT CANNOT BE MATCHED ON CD!!
The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.
