Description

A supremely rare and highly collectable NEAR MINT 1970 7" single UK ADVANCE PROMOTION COPY of

RICH MAN, POOR MAN b/w LET ME DOWN by the short lived early 70's UK band RUMBLE (the bass player, Steve Currie, went on to be part of Marc Bolan's T. Rex)

on the Warner Brothers record label WB 8011

Matrix numbers - Side 1 : WB 8011 - A1, Side 2 : WB 8011 - B1

Comes in original Warner Brothers die cut sleeve

The vinyl has retained virtually all of it's original gloss and sheen, and is in truly near mint, practically unmarked condition...clearly, it has been played only a very few times.

 The audio quality is EXCELLENT+. SIde 1 is near perfect and on side 2 there is a little, very mild, background crackle towards the end - certainly nothing to impede upon the overall outstanding sound quality.

The labels, as the photos testify, are in truly excellent condition - there is a hint of a single, very faint spindle trace on side 2. Otherwise pristine!

Yet another very early 70's underrated and overlooked rock gem!

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 40 years and have a huge collection. A combination of space requirements and a need to help fund my retirement has prompted me to "rationalise" my record collection and sell some of my much loved gems. My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I'll sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item, by the way. Richard

 

Descriptions of any records I sell comply with the Rare Record Price Guide grading guidelines :

Mint

Description: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent

Description: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packag­ing might have slight wear and/or creasing.

 

Very Good

Description: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable sur­face marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

 

Good

Description: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

 

Fair 

Description: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for prop­erly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor

 

Description: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

 

Bad

Description: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
