TEA TWO MILKY
hi, i'm listing a few rare tunes this week including a few trojan pre's (nora dean, hippy boys), a laurel aitken and rico doctorbird blank only release, a rudies downtown blank only release and one or two other hard to find releases. these all come from my own collection this week, all are in pretty good condition too, please take a look, THANKS!
ARTIST : laurel aitken? (possible joes all stars) / rico rodriguez
A SIDE : 100 tons of megaton
B SIDE : unknown instrumental
LABEL : doctor bird DB 1188
COUNTRY: UK
CONDITION : visually VG- / VG+ plays well. please check the sound file for audio
COMMENTS: very rare doctor bird blank only release i think from 1969. whilst the b side is known to be definately reco, the a side is supposed to be by laurel aitken, but i'm not so sure. i have read somewhere that the a side might be joes all stars. i know laurel aitken recorded quite a few tracks for doctor bird and JJ's records in the late 60's (some of the JJ's releases also had a DB matrix), around the time this was recorded, so it could well be him. i'd presume it was produced by laurel aitken.
two killer tracks, the a side a uk produced version of roland alphonso's 1000 tons of megaton, with the b side being a boss horn led instrumental - killer tune!
the a side has some marks and has some pops and clicks but still plays well, please check the sound files, still sounds great.

GRADINGS
nr mint. looks new, plays perfectly, no marks, clean labels
ex . plays great, but will have been used, no deterioration in sound quality, all in all a great copy
vg. record has been played quite a bit, but is still in very listenable condition, may have a little crackle and the odd pop or click, but no hiss, still a good copy
g. has seen considerable amounts of play and visualy probably isn't that good. however, the record will still play all the way through with no jumps or skips. will probably have quite a lot of pop and click
+ and - will be used to sway the gradings,
