Description

Here we have two fantastic recordings of one of the best Mod Bands ever!
This is the incredibly rare German original 1968 issue of "Harlem Shuffle" backed with the gorgeous "Wasn't it you" - one of my personal favourites!

As far as I know this is the only Action 45 ever to be issued in Germany.
The strange thing is, that both tracks were never issued on 7" in the UK until EDSEL re-issued "Wasn't it you" in 1981.

Artist: THE ACTION

Titles: HARLEM SHUFFLE / WASN'T IT YOU

Label:German Hansa Label (14 321 AT)
Record condition:Record looks VG+ with quite some superficial hairlines, but no scratches. Plays EX- with minimal crackle in the quite Intro of "Wasn't it you". Nothing distracting. Check the sound files.
Cover condition:Art sleeve is in VG condition with quite some crease and ring wear. It looks like there has been a damage from a removed sticker where the white paper has been painted over in the colours of the art sleeve (see scan). Also some writing on the backside. Not a perfect cover really, but try to find a better one!

Please read: Soundfiles are recorded in 48 kbps only in order to reduce download times. This means the sound might be a bit dull. The record sounds much clearer!

Grading information: I use the record collector grading system (M - EX - VG - etc.). As you can see from my feedback, I'm a collector myself. I try to grade every record as strict as I expect it from sellers I buy from. Still, if you should not be happy with a record you buy from me, contact me, and we'll sort it out. Record collecting should be fun, so I like my customers to be happy with what they get.

Payment: Buyer pays actual shipping costs from Germany. Payment is expected within 14 days of end of auction. Payment through paypal (please add 3 % for their fees) is prefered, otherwise I accept cash (GBP, US$, Euro) WELL CONCEALED in a REGISTERED letter.
