Description

This is an extremely rare and possibly unique early Billy Nicholls Acetate of "Always On My Mind" on Immediate Records label. This was never released as a single and only appeared on an album when "Snapshot" came out in about 1999 and I understand that release was re-mastered. I have compared this version with that on the 2007 re-issue of Would you Believe that has the additional demos and out takes and this acetate has been mixed slightly differently. Billy Nicholls only released one singe on Andrew Loog Oldham's Immediate label ( Would You Believe ), and only one album of the same name. The Album ( IM 009 )only made it to a demo release of 100 copies and has become one of the most sought after British records and dubbed "The British answer to Pet Sounds". I understand that Ronnie Lane & Steve Marriot worked with Billy during his time with Immediate but I have not been able to find out if there was any collaboration on this recording This would make a great addition to any Billy Nicholls or Immediate Label collection and may well be the only surviving original on disc. There are some marks on the surface but the record sounds very dynamic and plays well with a little surface noise in places but no loud pops. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I have set what I feel to be a realistic reserve on this item but it is nowhere near the £2,000+ that the " Would You Believe " album is now changing hands for. Thanks for looking and good luck if bidding Postage and packaging costs will depend on the method of shipping and country of destination and will be at actual cost only.
