AN VG CONDITION OF THIS VERY RARE PROMO 45. VINYL DOES SHOW A SLIGHT DEGREE OF WEAR, HOWEVER, THERE IS STILL A SHINE & THE LETTERING IS STILL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION SHOWING IT IS A GENUINE DEMO DUE TO ITS USE AS A RADIO PROMO AND TRULY APPEARS THAT THIS RECORD HAS SEEN TURNTABLE TIME. IT HAS BEEN WELL PRESERVED AND CAREFULLY STORED OVER THE YEARS.
THE RECORD STILL HAS A HIGH-SHINE, INCLUDING SURPRISINGLY NO HANDWRITTEN, "X" MARKS THAT DESIGNATED THE AIR-PLAY SONG. THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE VINYL IS VG TO VG+,
THERE ARE NO 'JUMPS' ON EITHER SIDE AND IT PLAY'S PERFECT WITH A LOW DEGREE OF SURFACE NOISE. OVERALL, DUE TO ITS RARITY, THIS IS A LOVELY COPY TO HAVE FRAMED & TRESURE. I HAVE PUT A LOW STARTING BID OF 0.99p, AND AN NO"" RESERVE" WHICH IS UNUSUAL FOR THE THE RARITY OF THIS VG TO VG+ CONDITION OF MUSIC HERITAGE & MODERN DAY WISE INVESTMENTS TO HAND DOWN TO FAMILY.
PROMOTIONAL RECORDS WERE DISTRIBUTED FOR FREE IN ORDER TO PROMOTE A RECORDING THAT WOULD BE COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. "PROMO" RECORDS WERE SENT DIRECTLY TO BROADCASTERS, SUCH AS RADIO STATION DISC JOCKEYS, AND AT TIMES, MUSIC JOURNALISTS IN ADVANCE OF THE RELEASE OF COMMERCIAL "STOCK COPY" ISSUES, IN THE HOPE THAT AIRPLAY, REVIEWS, AND OTHER FORMS OF EXPOSURE WILL RESULT AND STIMULATE THE PUBLIC'S INTEREST IN THE COMMERCIAL RELEASE.
BECAUSE PROMOTIONAL RECORDS WERE PRODUCED IN SMALLER QUANTITY THAN RELEASES THAT WERE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC, THEY ARE CONSIDERED EXTREMELY VALUABLE, FOR THEY WERE NEVER RELEASED IN RECORD STORES.
THESE PROMOTIONAL COPIES WERE ISSUD PRIMARILY TO RADIO STATIONS FOR AIRPLAY, AND MOST SURVIVING COPIES OF THESE SPECIAL ISSUED DISCS HAVE BEEN TREATED TO A WEALTH OF PLAY. THIS EXAMPLE IS IN VG++ TO EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A SHINY GLEAM 'STILL EVIDENT. IT IS OBVIOUS THIS RECORD HAS HAD SOME AIR-TIME PLAY.
