Description
ITEM : 2 track single in its original Parlophone sleeve. No picture cover issued.
ARTIST: The Allusions
SONGS: Gypsy Woman / Fever (burns my brain)
DETAILS: Australian only release – Parlophone Label # A8196
GENRE : Pop – Mod ; Beat
YEAR : 1966
INFO : Rarely sighted debut single from this Sydney outfit who stayed around a few years in the late 60’s and long enough to release half a dozen great singles, a very collectable EP and one terrific album.
This A-side, a cover of Ricky Nelsons minor hit, was the only song amongst their 45’s not written by the group. Their mod-beat reworking takes this to another level … haunting vocals and top-notch guitar puts the polish needed and really does embellish their style. The B-side is no throwaway either as the band were incredibly consistent in the studio.
Best remembered for their complex harmonies (akin to the Beatles) and excellent beat arrangements that resulted in intelligent and well-crafted material during their time together.
CONDITION: Note : All records (except where Mint) have been vacuum-machine cleaned and fully played on a quality system to determine an accurate grading.
This item will be safely packed and includes a new outer plastic cover.
· Vinyl : Very pleasing. Some light marks on either side that translates to nil concern during play. The vinyl still retains heaps of gloss which is reflected in the bright and clear sound of both tracks. No lead-in/out noise either side. During testing I picked up on an extremely minor (i.e. minimalistic at best) lead-in warp during play of no audible worry whatsoever… visually this is barely noticeable though I feel it should be mentioned all the same. Worthy of a VG rating that is certain to please.
· Labels : Clean as per photos above.
· Sleeve : Original company cover in excellent condition. No writing. No splits. No edge-wear.
