THIS IS A VERY RARE MISPRESSING WITH THE SAME LABEL ON BOTH SIDES OF THE DISC WHICH WOULD NORMALLY BE DESTROYED AT THE FACTORY BUT THIS EXAMPLE GOT AWAY! THE DISC PLAYS THE CORRECT TRACKS.
THE RECORD HAS ONLY BEEN PLAYED A FEW TIMES SINCE BOUGHT IN 1983.

PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS WHICH SHOW THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE PICTURE COVER AND BOTH LABELS. A LOW,REALISTIC £5 PRICE FOR THIS IN DEMAND SINGLE. PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
