Up for bids is the Elton John release on DJM, "Lady Samantha/ All Across the Havens."

This is a promo single on the DJM label, distributed through Bell Records and released in January 1969; Elton John's first US release predated his first album, Empty Sky, by about six months but neither song was included on a regular studio album (only on B-Sides and rarities collections). The playing condition of the single being offered in this auction is NEAR MINT, the visual condition is glossy with the original finish still intact!  Under bright light, a few micro-scuffs from storage are apparent in the run-out grooves -- overall, the single is in clean shape with an equally clean sound (NM sound, NM- appearance).

 

The UNRETOUCHED audio sample of this single was recorded from a Stanton T-90 USB Direct Drive turntable, using Audacity software. Being a uncirculated promo, this may have been the only time this single has been played. Go to the eCommerce player shown above to listen.


We were fortunate enough to find a box of Northern Soul, Psych/Rock, and Pop singles that included DJM and other small labels from the same time frame (Impact, Revue, Arctic, Pzazz, etc).  Since the other labels are also in Near Mint condition, I believe these were kept by a regional A&R man and stored away for more than 40 years as either a special collection or simply records that were never distributed in the course of his/her work.
