Description

Just recently I bought a massive collection of 60's and 70's LPs...some are in surprisingly immaculate condition, and some are not, but the original owner (a well-respected Australian vinyl hoarder) was a fastidious collector of the styles he loved - 60's punk/garage, British invasion well-knowns [Beatles/Hollies/Dave Clark 5/Gerry & The Pacemakers/Zombies/Troggs/etc..], 70's West Coast sounds, pop-psych and he'd obviously forraged far and wide since there's a flurry of unique South American, New Zealand, South African, Japanese releases amongst them all

Here then, is one of the LPs from his collection:

ARTIST:      the EASYBEATS 
TITLE:          "VOLUME 3" 
FORMAT:     …vinyl LP… 
LABEL:         Parlophone
CAT. #:          PMCO-7537 
DATE OF RELEASE:   1966 
PRESSED IN:    Australia
ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING?   Yes...so much so, that it doesn't even have the stereo catalogue number below the mono number on the back cover!...and a beautiful copy it is too.

 

Mono original with flipback cover...twelve of the thirteen tracks are Stevie Wright/George Young compositions, with "Today" being a Snowy Fleet song (he sings it too! - a great garage cut with killer punk-y guitar solo)...this album remains one of Australia's toughest garage punk LPs - way up there on the same pedestal occupied by legendary albums from STEVE AND THE BOARD, the MISSING LINKS, and MIKE FURBER AND THE BOWERY BOYS...almost every track has a roaring garage-y punked up guitar solo, with about the only exceptions being the pop-psych cuts "SAY YOU WANT ME", and "DANCE OF THE LOVERS", and the trippy psych "THE LAST DAY OF MAY" (an awesome cut!). This is one great LP!

 

TRACK LISTING:

SIDE ONE: SORRY / FUNNY FEELIN' / SAY YOU WANT ME / YOU SAID THAT / GOIN' OUT OF MY MIND / NOT IN LOVE WITH YOU      

SIDE TWO: PROMISED THINGS / THE LAST DAY OF MAY / TODAY / MY MY MY / DANCE OF THE LOVERS / WHAT DO YOU WANT BABE / CAN'T YOU LEAVE HER

============================================================================================================================================

CONDITION:

COVER: ( VG+[+] )...small corner scuffs...a couple of creases...light ringwear and water-staining on the back...some minor opening-edge scuffs...and that's about it...see pix for lack of any major blemishes...looks very nice...

RECORD: ( VG+[+] )...has a few light marks - nothing major!...and plays beautifully!...plus this is a VERY loud cut...it fair jumps outta the speakers at you...

LABELS: (Side One: M- / Side Two: M- )...

If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).

Thanks for considering this item...Cheers, Jules.
