**SHAKE / I JUST GOT SOME**
**ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING 1966 COLUMBIA UK 7'' SINGLE DB 7892 IN ORIGINAL COMPANY SLEEVE**
MATRIX NUMBERS....7XCA 30003-1 / 7XCA 30004-1 FIRST PRESSING
This was Rod Stewart's third UK single. A mod classic that sadly failed to sell. What makes the record so special, is of course it features the brilliant Brian Auger on Hammond organ. This record occasionally turns up for sale as a demo, but a true stock copy is incredibly rare.
The Record....The record plays well, with decent sound quality. The vinyl playing surfaces, under strong unshaded light, show some light surface wear, but definitely no serious marks. The record still has a nice shine. Graded Very Good Plus. A very rare record! Please read about the labels before bidding.
The Labels....The Side 1 label (Shake) has 2 near invisible initials written on it (black ball point pen writing on black label), but still a nice label. The Side 2 label (I Just Got Some) once again, has 2 near invisible initials written on it (and again black ball point pen writing on black label) plus some wear around the centre hole that has neatly been blacked in. This is how I purchased the record many years ago, as it is from my own personal collection that I have decided to let go. Both labels are still very presentable, but of course not perfect. See the scans. This record is incredibly rare as a stock copy, and this is the best one I've owned.
The Cover....The record is housed in an original "Wavy Top" Columbia company sleeve, in superb, good strong condition. Very clean.
We use the UK grading system E.G. VG / EX / MINT. We also use + and - if there are slight differences between the grades.
**All Records are sent out in plastic covers with the record placed out of the front cover to prevent the cover from getting knifed. All records are sent out in strong mailers with added protection to make sure that they reach you in the condition that they leave here in.**
**For each record or item sent out I will fill out a separate Proof of Postage slip that is date stamped with the address of the destination of the parcel. Insurance will cost extra and is highly recommended, I will not be responsible if this is not taken for items lost in the post. I also will not send to France unless registered postage is taken as it seems the postal system in France is very poor will parcels getting stolen. It is not just me that has had this problem but my friends that also sell.**
**Please note if you cannot make payment within 20 days of the auction ending please do not bid as the number of non paying bidders seems to be on the increase. If there are any problems with sending payment i.e - you going on holiday - please let me know. I will provide my best service at all times. If payment has not reached me within the 20 days of the auction ending the item will be relisted or sold elsewhere. I am not into giving negative feedback as I feel that this is a childish feature and not my style. It seems some people on this auction site are Trigger Happy with this feature. Check out my feedback. Thank you to most of the customers that I have dealt with in the past two years who know the score. **
** Please read this - If you have been buying from some dealers on ebay who continue to sell records that have been altered or have stickers placed over writing to hide damage, or selling in a much lesser condition than stated;- I would rather sell the record in it's original state, than cut out pieces of paper to hide the truth. I am also against skimming, steaming and other dirty tricks. I will playgrade all records and do all grading under a 100 watt light bulb, which shows the truth. I will continue to place quality items on ebay as I want to build up my customer base. The only things that I want to come back are customers, not records. Thank You.**
All records are visually graded, and playgraded on sound equipment.
