THE MONO MIXES ARE PUNCHY AND THIS ROUNDS UP THE FIRST FOUR UK HIT SINGLES ON ONE E.P.!

-THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!
AN EARLY EDITION WHICH IS NOW 47 YEARS OLD AND AN IDEAL OPPORTUNITY TO OWN AN ORIGINAL COPY AT A DECENT STARTING PRICE!
MINT OR NEAR MINT COPIES CAN FETCH £50+ AND SO A VERY DECENT NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION E.P.IS A VERY ATTRACTIVE OPTION ON THE BASIS THAT TRUE NEAR MINT CONDITION COPIES ARE GENERALLY KEPT UNPLAYED FOR INVESTMENT.

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN DREADFUL CONDITION.
THIS COPY HAS SEEN A FEW PLAYS BUT IS STILL IN DECENT ORDER AND PLAYS MAGNIFICENTLY JUST WITH A FEW MINOR,FAINT VISUAL MARKS.

***********************************************************
MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME SLIGHT SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE BUT THAT IS BEING VERY STRICT AND THE SURFACE NOISE DOES NOT OVERSHADOW THE MUSIC!
NO JUMPS!/NO STICKS!/NO NASTY LOUD CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!
Copies of this EP were being sold in TINY quantities and how many were preserved like this one-??
USED BUT NOT SERIOUSLY ABUSED!!!!!!
Just to explain, in 1963,the majority of fans were using poor equipment. LPs tended to be more cared for.
THIS ONE HAS BEEN PLAYED A FEW TIMES BUT STILL SOUNDING GREAT!
The MONO mixes are brilliant and full of bass.
Vinyl is still the best way to hear 1960s MUSIC and always will be!
GREAT SOLID SOUND!
I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.
I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.
There is only a little spindle wear and no label defacement!!!
NO LABEL WRITING/NO STICKER REMOVAL/NO WORN PRINT!!!
THE GLOSSY/LAMINATED FRONT COVER HAS A CREASE AT THE LEAD IN EDGE,FRONT AND A LITTLE FAINT STAINING AT THE BACK BUT NO WRITING,NO NASTY RIPS,SELLOTAPE REPAIRS,STAPLES,HOLE CUTS ETC.
IT IS STILL FAR BETTER THAN MOST AROUND!
Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.
MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!
This is A NICE COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!
AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "EX"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.
THE EP AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!
REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTO!
IF YOU GO THROUGH MY FEEDBACK YOU WILL SEE MANY OTHER E.P.s SOLD -PAY NOTE TO THE FEEDBACK RESPONSES!!-NO ISSUES!! INFACT VERY HAPPY CUSTOMERS WHICH IS PROOF OF MY CAREFUL,DETAILED AND STRICT GRADING!!!!
