Description
I dont know too much about this to be honest but it plays brilliantly and is bang on with the timing. I obtained this from a guy who ran a record store in Brighton UK from the 60s, selling mostly Northern soul, disco, American jazz, and all the 50s, 60s, 70s, scenes. I asked him if he had any metal and he didnt know much other than Motorhead and Rainbow. Then pulled this out with them. It was given to him as part of a "house collection" and I took it and some promo posters as well. I played it once to make sure it was it was. I compared this to the uk picture disc test press I own. The grooves and near sound match the original. It is possibly an acetate for the UK 12" picture disc but dont know this. It was only released in the UK, Germany and a few EEC presses and the USA as promo on 12" but im pretty certain this is UK. One sided as acetates should be, heavyweight and still in great condition. I dont want to play it again due to its nature and wearing it down. There are no scratches just a little dustwear here and there. Side B blank as should be. A pleasure to have owned. A very rare item. Any questions please ask. Cheers!
