ATTENTION SERIOUS JOE MEEK PRODUCTIONS AND GIRL SINGER COLLECTORS!

VALERIE MASTERS "CHRISTMAS CALLING"

ONE OF THE HARDEST TO FIND OF ALL THE JOE MEEK PRODUCTIONS THAT BARELY SOLD OR GOT MUCH EXPOSURE IN 1964!

JOE WROTE THE"B"SIDE WHICH IS THE FAR BETTER SIDE="HE DIDN'T FOOL ME". 

JOE MEEK HAD MANY ENEMIES IN THE INDUSTRY MAINLY THROUGH JEALOUSY AND AS SUCH THIS RECORD HAD HARDLY ANY RADIO PLAY OR PUBLICITY AND COPIES CAN FETCH AROUND £75 IN NEAR MINT CONDITION!

IT WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF ISSUE AS WAS STANDARD PRACTISE FOR POOR SELLERS DUE TO THE VAST NUMBER OF NEW RELEASES EACH WEEK ON THE VARIOUS EMI LABELS AND BEING SUCH A POOR SELLER IS PROBABLY EQUALLY AS RARE AS A DEMO 45!!

THIS RARELY SEEN 45 WILL BE OF MAJOR INTEREST TO ANY COLLECTOR OF THIS PIONEERING GENIUS BEST KNOWN FOR THE HUGE #1 HIT"TELSTAR"AND THE SUBJECT OF A RECENT AND FANTASTIC FILM,NOW ON DVD!

THIS 45 IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AND FAILED TO CHART WAY BACK IN 1964!

1964 EMI PRESSED COLUMBIA DB 7626 MONO. 

1N/1N MATRIXES! CRISP SOUND AS EXPECTED ON ONE OF THE FIRST OFF THE MASTER STAMPERS! 

 HOW MANY SURVIVE 46 YEARS LATER AS GOOD AS THIS ONE????

IT'S STILL IN IT'S ORIGINAL,CLEAN AND CRISP COLUMBIA COMPANY SLEEVE WITH THE RECORD TOKENS,RECORD MAIL AND EMITEX CLEANER ADVERTS AT THE BACK! 

MOST COPIES HAVE NOW ENDED UP IN LONG TERM COLLECTORS COLLECTIONS AND ARE GETTING LESS FREQUENT ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN 2010!!!

NOT A DODGY REPRO AS MAY EXIST

THIS IS A GENUINE UK 45!!
