Description

A rare 1971 French copy of this Mothers of Invention single. Features Flo and Eddie late of The Turtles and indeed the unique b-side for this release as a version of their classic “Happy Together”.


This was NOT the b-side in other territories.


Complete with picture sleeve.



Overall, this copy is in very good condition. The sleeve, now over 50 years old has some edgewear and is slightly ‘tired’ and grubby in places. There are also the figures 850 written on one side of the sleeve - possIbly the price in French francs at the time. Nevertheless it’s in remarkable condition after all these decades, with everything perfectly legible.


Where it counts, however, the record itself, it is in brilliant condition. Plays perfectly with only crackle on the deadwax at either end. No imperfections at all on either side. Play-tested on both a Rega Eco and Sondek LP12 - FAB !



Great version of ‘Happy Together’.


This is a ‘large-hole’ copy which means that you’ll require a ‘centre’ or adaptor to play.
