ADDITIONAL INFO.

 

~ IMPOSSIBLY RARE, HIGHLY PRIZED TAMLA RED AND WHITE DEMONSTATION/DJ SAMPLE

~ Some of our regular customers may realise this particular record has been listed before by us and was sold for £361 .  This relist is because the winning bidder had an minor issue with one of our audio gradings and made use of our full refund policy.  This is why on this occasion we have produced a recording sample (see bottom of listing) of the single itself, for collectors to make their own judgements.   We wanted to post the complete audio of both tracks on this listing but as we are unsure of 'royalty issues' we have decided to put only a 30 second sample of the title track.    If anyone reading this has informed knowledge of the 'royalty issue' please let us know if we are allowed to post complete recordings.  


R.R.C GRADINGS

SLEEVE

EXCELLENT -

Single comes with original orange Tamla Motown company sleeve.

All singles will also be dispatched within a new rigid white cardboard sleeve.   

LABEL(s)

EXCELLENT
As you can see from the photos, both sides of this famous Tamla Motown label are in excellent  condition.

 

VINYL APPEARANCE

EXCELLENT -

On both sides there are some surface marks.   However there are no major scratches or abrasions on either side of the vinyl.  

 

AUDIO QUALITY

A-SIDE

EXCELLENT

 

B-SIDE

EXCELLENT - 

 

As its an extremely rare single we have decided to capture the audio of the first 30 seconds of the track, (see below) so you can judge for yourself the sound quality of this demonstration single.  We have taken the first 30 seconds of 'Put Yourself In My Place' because we believe that this clip is a good example of the audio quality on : 'Put Yourself In My Place'.   As you might be able to hear there is some extremely faint background popping.   However this does not in anyway spoil the sound delivered by the Elgins which is still very special.

Dear collector, we are the BARRACLOUGH Brothers of CollectableVinylRecords

Sam and I have established a reputation as a TRUSTED supplier of  RARE vinyl, based upon HONEST and THOROUGH descriptions of our items.  Together we have undertaken the task of selling our father’s extensive record collection, which he has amassed during his time as a DJ and MUSIC CRITIC.  It’s a considerable, and unique vinyl collection of albums and singles with many rare items included.  In addition to the known rare records there are many DEMO and PROMOTIONAL items, which were not available for general purchase making them highly collectable.  The chronology of the collection stretches from the early 1960s to the early 1980s.   Within this period, there is a concentration of records released between 1965 and 1969 - a seminal era for music that is reflected by its collectability.  Although the spectrum of musical genre is varied, this collection heavily features PSYCHEDELIC, FREAKBEAT, PUNK, MOTOWN and NORTHERN SOUL.  All our items have a low start price of £4.99, because we believe that each will reach its true market value  ~  This is thanks, largely to our loyal client base we have aquired for consistently listing HIGHLY COLLECTABLE Vinyl.  Fresh RARE records will be listed regularly, ending in the evenings, but as a rule of thumb, expect ;

                                  * DESIREABLE Sixties PSYCHE/GARAGE and FREAKBEAT to finish on SATURDAY

                                  * COLLECTABLE Sixties SOUL, MOTOWN and NORTHERN SOUL to finish on a SUNDAY. 

                                  * Consider    ”PSYCHE SATURDAYS“   and   ”SUNDAY SOUL”    to be the Collectable Vinyl weekend.

If you have any questions concerning this item or wish to enquire about my record collection please contact me by asking a question via EBAY or EMAIL ~ collectablevinylrecords@gmail.com. We will aim to reply within 24 HOURS where possible.

We have a data-based collection, using the RARE RECORD PRICE GUIDES' grading scale (If you are unaware of this grading system please don’t hesitate to contact me and I will reply as soon as possible with the guides description). As you can see in the description there is a grading given for VINYL and AUDIO QUALITY.  This is necessary because a record may seem poor quality when viewed, but when played the AUDIO QUALITY is often excellent.  Conversely the VINYL QUALITY may seem excellent but when played the AUDIO QUALITY can be quite poor.

We will offer a FULL REFUND (INCLUDING P + P) if you find that any of the gradings (OUTER SLEEVE, LABEL, VINYL or AUDIO QUALITY) given in the listing do not match the description of RARE RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM.  A FULL REFUND (INCLUDING P + P) policy prohibits scammers, but more importantly ensures our TRUE COLLECTORS complete piece of mind.  As you can see by my feedback, we have attained a STRONG REPUTATION based upon the ACCURACY of my description, COMMUNICATION with clients and a quick and PROFESSIONAL postage.  So, in the unlikely event that you are dissatisfied, please notify me within 48 HOURS of receipt that you are returning the record and we will deposit your refund via PAYPAL.
