ATTENTION RARE 1960s BEAT GROUP COLLECTORS!HERE IS A VERY SCARCE ORIGINAL AND RARELY SEEN BRITISH BEAT GROUPS AND BEAT SINGERS LIVE LP,ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION: "AT THE CAVERN".1964 DECCA LK 4597.
A REAL PIECE OF HISTORY CAPTURING THE EXCITEMENT OF THE LEGENDARY LIVERPOOL CLUB THAT WAS MADE FAMOUS BY THE BEATLES WITH INTRODUCTIONS BY THE CLUB'S COMPARE,BOB WOOLNER.
UNLIKE OTHER SO CALLED"LIVE"ALBUMS OF THE ERA THAT WERE JUST PREVIOUSLY RECORDED STUDIO TRACKS WITH AUDIENCE EFFECTS ADDED ON,THIS ALBUM WAS MADE AS AN ACURATE EVENT WITH NO FADE OUTS,STUDIO TRICKS OR DUBS!
GREAT ATMOSPHERE AND OF COURSE MOST OF THE TRACKS WERE NEVER RECORDED BY THE ARTISTS INVOLVED ON OTHER ALBUMS OR SINGLES WITH SOME UNDERATED TALENT INCLUDED SUCH AS THE BIG THREE,BERYL MARSDEN,THE DENNISONS,LEE CURTIS,BERN ELLIOTT,THE MARAUDERS,THE FORTUNES,DAVE BERRY AND THE CRUISERS+THE JOE MEEK LAUNCHED HEINZ!
MOST BEATLES FANS WILL KNOW THAT DECCA TURNED DOWN THE BAND AND SO THIS IS AN IRONIC RELEASE ISSUED AT THE HEIGHT OF BEATLEMANIA AND A STRONGLY LINKED ITEM FOR OBVIOUS REASONS!
IT'S EARLIEST POSSIBLE UK MONO 1964 EDITION ON THE THICK PRESSED"GROOVED"AND "UNBOXED"DECCA LOGO LABELS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION-BARELY PLAYED-COMPLETE WITH THE USUALLY MISSING"HANDLING"TRACING PAPER INNER SLEEVE AND A SUPER CLEAN LAMINATED FRONT COVER!
2A/2A MATRIXES.
IT HAS BEEN REISSUED BUT HERE IS THE EARLIEST DESIGN THAT WAS ISSUED FOR A VERY SHORT TIME WITH"GROOVED"LABELS!
HARDLY ANY COPIES HAVE SURVIVED LIKE THIS FANTASTIC EXAMPLE!
STRICTLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST A FEW TINY AND FAINT HAIRLINE SURFACE MARKS,THE COVER REMOVAL TYPE IN VERY STRONG LIGHT BUT IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT THIS COPY HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE-UPGRADER STANDARD!
MANY WOULD STATE NEAR MINT!
THE FEW COPIES THAT WERE SOLD 48 YEARS AGO IN 1964 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL WITH THAT "JUST PRESSED"LOOK! NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE! NO CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS! CLEAN LABELS-ONLY VERY SLIGHT SPINDLE WEAR!
A COPY THAT HAS HARDLY BEEN USED, OBVIOUSLY CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1964! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS!
ONE OF THE BEST MONO 1ST EDITION COPIES I HAVE FOUND IN 25 YEARS AS A DEALER SPECIALISING IN 1960s RECORDS!
THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER PRINTED BY ROBERT STACE HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.
NOTE THE WHITENESS AND BRIGHTNESS OF THE BACK OF THE COVER IN PHOTO #2!
A REAL JOY FOR ANY 1960s BEAT GROUP FAN!
NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!
THIS LP ITSELF IS STRICTLY GRADED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE RAREST AND BEST OF ALL THE 1960s BEAT GROUP LPs!
