Description


RELEASED 1967. A SIDE "SIR COLLINS SPECIAL". B SIDE "LESTER STIRLING '67"

CATALOGUE NUMBER: DOWN BEAT CR.001. FIRST ISSUE
MATRIX: CR+001+A/CR+001+B. OWNED SINCE NEW

Hardly played. Obtained when I was a record buyer for Keith Prowse Music in the late 1960's. Extremely rare and possibly unique in this superb condition. One for the serious collector.

Down Beat was a British independent rocksteady label run by Clancy Collins a.k.a Sir Collins. Set up in 1967 and released both Clancy Collins and Bunny Lee productions until the shutdown in 1968. It's still unclear if all the releases on Collins Down Beat were recorded in the UK or if merely used rhythm tracks recorded in Jamaica with the vocals being added in London. There were only 17 releases and this is the first. Clancy Collins was a British Jamaican sound system owner and producer. He run a record stall in Petticoat Lane.

UK post is included. I can post overseas, extra cost dependant on your location. Any taxes/customs duties are the buyers responsibility.

Packing. All my singles come securely packed in sturdy vinyl masters with cardboard stiffeners.
