Description
Well, look what we have here. There's rare and there's RARE!
A Collectables label issue of the pre-Spector 1962 track Silhouettes by The Ronettes backed with Good Girls from the following year. As these recordings don't have the Wall Of Sound production on them, they are much more clearly produced than the Phil Spector stuff, particularly on the high end and have a 'live' sound to them. Have a listen and see what I mean.

The vinyl sounds superb. There are light scuff marks that follow the groove in a circular direction on both sides but these are not scratches and you don't hear anything - the sound is clear and sharp with no playwear, clicks, pops or crackle - just the usual surface fuzz on the run in and out. I play my records with full treble on high-end equipment so if you prefer yours eased back a bit, I'm confident you'll hear CD quality.
It's just a pity it's not an original copy on the May label but that's not going to turn up anytime soon. I've never seen one for sale and I'm 58!
3/9/17 - just realised I'm away from 6th until 18th September so despatch will delayed - please allow for this if bidding and winning the record, thank you.
