Description
What's on offer?: Almost without the need for introduction, here we have a SIMPLY FANTASTIC and hugely IN DEMAND gem from the Mod Freakbeat genre - particularly as this copy is an ORIGINAL FIRST UK DEMO PRESSING and in wonderful MINT UNPLAYED CONDITION!!!!
A PRECIOUS 'KEEPER' COPY FOR COLLECTORS OF 60s FREAKBEAT: IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND A BETTER ONE
Artist: THE EMERALDS
A-side: King Lonely The Blue
B-side: Someone Else's Fool
Label: Decca F 12304 (DEMO)
As you'll see from the photo, this is guaranteed to be the ORIGINAL 1965 UK 1st DEMO pressing, so you can forget about having to settle for one of those dodgy so-called "limited re-pressings" (actually bootlegs) that are flooding the market.
A simply incredible performance, any fan of The Emeralds, the Mod Freakbeat sound or 60s music in general, will simply have to have this beauty in their collection!!!!
Grade (labels): The classic blue labels are in FANTASTIC condition with clear and vibrant silver print; there is NO unwanted handwriting, NO wear and NO spindle marks!!!
Grade (vinyl): In decades gone by, the general public and DJs had no idea how valuable some vinyl would turn out to be. Hence, discs such as this were often handled with relative neglect and played on a much heavier stylus than is the case nowadays. The result is that many discs are found to be badly marked and sometimes almost unplayable. This record, however, is strictly graded at MINT and is genuinely believed to be UNPLAYED!!!!
Why buy?: This is such a BRILLIANT and PAINFULLY RARE 45. It's virtually impossible to find a genuine copy in ANY condition, let alone this superb!!!! So, don't miss this as it might be your only chance to buy an ORIGINAL 1965 Decca UK 1st DEMO pressing of "King Lonely The Blue" by The Emeralds in MINT UNPLAYED condition!!!
Don't forget: Look to see if I have other rare items on auction at the present time. Many vinyl gems (always in fantastic condition) will be emerging over the coming weeks and months so, to ensure you don't miss out, please check my listings from time to time!!!
