Description
ATTENTION THE SHADOWS COLLECTORS,1960s NON-HITS COLLECTORS AS WELL AS CONDITION UPGRADERS!
HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1968 SHADOWS VOCAL NON-HIT: "DEAR OLD MRS BELL". THERE WAS VERY LITTLE ATTENTION OR SALES FOR THIS SINGLE AS THE SHADOWS WERE FAR LESS POPULAR BY THIS TIME AND AS THIS SINGLE FAILED TO CHART,IT PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OR EVEN WEEKS OF ISSUE! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER COPY ESPECIALLY AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE THAT HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED IN 47 YEARS AND VERY WELL PRESERVED AS WELL AS BEING THE MUCH HARDER TO FIND SOLID CENTRE PRESSING! THERE IS A PUSH OUT CENTRE PRESSING ENDING FROM ME ON EBAY-FIVE MINUTES BEFORE THIS AUCTION ENDS!
THE"B"SIDE(ANOTHER VOCAL)="TRYING TO FORGET THE ONE YOU LOVE".
THIS IS SERIOUSLY RARE-INFACT I DON'T RECALL EVER FINDING A COPY FOR YEARS!
ISSUED IN 1968(47 YEARS AGO!) ON THE EMI PRESSED COLUMBIA LABEL:DB 8372 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE -1/-1 MATRIXES. THERE IS THE RAISED PRINT K T TAX CODE ON THE "A" SIDE LABEL.
THE RECORD HAS GLEAMING SURFACES WITH JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA TINY AND FAINT WISPY SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER VERY STRONG LIGHT BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! NO LOUD CLICKS,JUMPS OR STICKS. CLEAN LABELS WITH NO WRITING.
STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION. PLAYS SUPERB!
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT DARK BLUE COLUMBIA COMPANY COVER WITH SOME MINOR CREASES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS AND STILL VERY PRESENTABLE INDEED. THERE IS A LOW,REALISTIC £7 STARTING PRICE FOR A SINGLE WHICH RARELY TURNS UP ESPECIALLY IN THIS FABULOUS CONDITION!
The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.
