Description

On offer a British single sided Emidisc acetate of the Everly Brothers' 'June Is As Cold As December', which eventually appeared on the 'In Our Image' album in 1966. I haven't got an orginal copy of the LP to compare but this is undoubtedly a different version to the two I found on Youtube, as well as the one available for download on Amazon. The guitar is 'janglier' (esp on the intro), the boys do a verse of 'ooohs' before starting singing proper and the vocals in general have a 'hazier' feel than the other versions. Sorry but I can't guarantee this is an unreleased version / take but on the evidence I've found, it could well be. I'm sure some Everly's expert out there could tell me more!
Condition wise it ain't bad for an acetate - it plays with surface noise (most do) but there's no distortion of the music itself . Visually it retains a nice gloss indeed but has storage marks, so I think its a decent VG. There is a slight warp in the record but it doesn't affect the play at all. The label has a pencilled 'Major' at the top and some light age spots.
Overseas welcome.
Post UK £1.30, Western Europe £3.50, rest of world £4.50.
