THE ROLLING STONES:
"BIG HITS"(HIGH TIDE AND GREEN GRASS)"
AN ORIGINAL 1966 1ST UK MONO PRESSING!
TXL 101 + THICK VINYL WITH"UNBOXED DECCA"LOGOS +"GROOVED"LABELS +THE ORIGINAL"FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING"INNER SLEEVE,THE ATTACHED COLOUR PHOTOS BOOKLET +A LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER.
BACK IN 1966 THIS WAS OF COURSE A BIG SELLER BUT ALMOST EVERY COPY THAT SURVIVES IS IN BEATEN UP,WORN CONDITION ESPECIALLY THE MONO ONES WHEN STEREO COPIES EXIST AND TENDED TO BE BOUGHT BY THOSE WITH MORE SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT!
THIS ONE IS THE BEST MONO COPY I HAVE FOUND IN YEARS!
MOST COPIES SOLD 45 YEARS AGO IN 1966 WERE 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 NOT HAD MANY PLAYS WITH GLEAMING SURFACES AND ONLY A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS!-THE COVER REMOVAL HAIRLINE TYPE.
HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE!
NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE!
NO LOUD CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS!
CLEAN LABELS-HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR!
A COPY THAT HAS BEEN USED BUT OBVIOUSLY CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1966!
THE TRACKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
HAVE YOU SEEN YOUR MOTHER,BABY,STANDING BY THE SHADOWS
PAINT IT BLACK
IT'S ALL OVER NOW
THE LAST TIME
HEART OF STONE
NOT FADE AWAY
COME ON
SATISFACTION(I CAN'T GET NO)
GET OFF MY CLOUD
AS TEARS GO BY
19TH NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
LADY JANE
TIME IS ON MY SIDE
