THE BOSTON CRABS

tracks
"DOWN IN MEXICO"
b/w
"WHO?"

UK
7" vinyl single (45rpm)
COLUMBIA
DB7586
1965

The Boston Crabs released only three singles, all highly saught after, this particular single being a superb nugget of the mod scene and yet one of the most overlooked... as the name of both the group and the 'A' side don't sound R&B soul, but placing the needle in the groove gives a totally different picture.  Legendary item, authentic and original 1st pressing.

Condition
The disc is in really nice condition, has only been played a few times and only has very light handling marks.
Plays loud and proud.

The sleeve is a basic company sleeve, this copy is lightly worn with creasing and sticker lift top right, but this sleeve could easily be replaced for another from the same era as it isn't specific to the release.

Condition in summary : sleeve / disc : -/EX
