ATTENTION THE YARDBIRDS,1960s BEAT GROUPS AND 1960s DEMO COLLECTORS.

THIS WEEK I AM AUCTIONING A FABULOUS YARDBIRDS DEMO THAT COULD BE A HIGHLIGHT IN YOUR COLLECTION! 

HERE IS A VERY STRICTLY GRADED VERY GOOD CONDITION 7 INCH DEMO 45 OF THE YARDBIRDS 1966 UK HIT:"SHAPES OF THINGS".IT IS ONE OF APPROX 250 COPIES MADE FOR BAND MEMBERS,EMI MANAGEMENT OR VERY SELECTIVE RECORD REVIEWERS,DJs,RADIO AND TV STATIONS WITH THE DEMO ONLY LARGE RED "A" ON WHITE LABELS NOT ON THE SHOP STOCK BLACK LABELS.

OVER THE YEARS MANY OF THESE WOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN AWAY OR BADLY DAMAGED-THIS ONE IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH UNUSUALLY CLEAN LABELS!

THIS IS ONE OF THE FEW LEFT IN EXISTENCE AS MOST THAT SURVIVE ARE IN THE PRIVATE COLLECTIONS OF 1960s BEAT FANS.ON THE RARE OCCASIONS THEY TURN UP,MOST HAVE NO CENTRES OR LABEL DAMAGE SUCH AS STICKERS OR WRITING. THIS ONE HAS BRILLIANTLY CLEAN LABELS WITH NO DEFACEMENT! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS! THERE IS ALSO A MAGNIFICENT MANFRED MANN CONNECTED SONG ON THE "B" SIDE!

 THIS COPY WAS KEPT BY A FORMER WORKER OF THE LONDON PRESS EXCHANGE AGENCY AND HE WOULD DELIVER ADVANCE DEMOS TO THE RADIO LUXEMBOURG LONDON STUDIOS TO BE RECORDED ONTO TAPE FOR THEIR EMI SPONSORED RADIO SHOWS.ANOTHER DEMO COPY WOULD BE SENT TO RADIO LUXEMBOURG IN THE COUNTRY ITSELF.BEING A KEEN YARDBIRDS FAN,HE MUST HAVE PERSUADED THEM TO LET HIM KEEP IT AND THANKFULLY REALISING IT'S SPECIAL RARITY TREASURED IT AND ALTHOUGH IT HAS HAD SEVERAL PLAYS WITH SOME VISUAL SURFACE MARKS,THE RECORD SOUND GREAT WITH SOLID MONO SOUND!.  

THE MAJORITY OF DEMOS THAT SURVIVE ARE WORN OUT AND UNPLAYABLE. NATURALLY THIS ONE HAS HAD A FEW PLAYS BUT THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE- NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS.THE SURFACES HAVE SOME VISUAL/LIGHT SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT BUT NO DEEP FEELABLE SCRATCHES.

STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS VERY GOOD CONDITION!.

COLUMBIA DB 7848. THE"B"SIDE="YOU'RE A BETTER MAN THAN I".THIS IS A FANTASTIC SONG COMPOSED BY MIKE HUGG OF MANFRED MANN.

IT WILL BE VERY LIKELY TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ANOTHER DEMO EDITION OF THIS SINGLE IN DECENT CONDITION EVER AGAIN!

THE LABELS HAVE A LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR AND A FEW SPINDLE LINES AND A LITTLE STAINING ON THE "B" SIDE LABEL BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,NO FADING,NO RIPS,NO STICKERS AND ARE QUITE STUNNING!. 

HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT COLUMBIA COMPANY COVER WITH NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.JUST A FEW SMALL CREASES.

A LOW,REALISTIC £5 STARTING PRICE! THERE IS NO BUY IT NOW PRICE OPTION!

THE PACKING WILL BE IN A SOLID,SAFE PARCEL WITH ADDITIONAL RECORDS FOR SAFETY AND CHECK OUT MY FEEDBACK FOR MY PACKING ABILITY!
