Take on me - ultrarare 1st release 12" MAXI 1984

WEA Germany 19.10.1984, WEA-Nr. 920268-0 

19 Jahre alte Rarität: 

a-ha, TAKE ON ME, erste Veröffentlichung vom 19.10.84. Die Platte floppte damals und wurde europaweit nur 300 mal verkauft. Produziert wurde die Single von Tony Mansfield, gemixt von John Ratcliff zusammen mit A-ha. Die 12'' Single enthält als besonderes Extra noch den Song "Stop! And Make Your Mind Up", der später nie mehr veröffentlicht wurde und deshalb für Sammler einen unschätzbaren Wert hat. Auch ein Video wurde zu dieser Veröffentlichung gedreht (nicht das berühmte Cartoon-Video), allerdings nie öffentlich gezeigt. Die Platte und Cover sind in einem guten, aber gebrauchten Zustand VG+.

The 12"-record is identical to the 7"-release except for the additional information concerning the tracks "Take On Me" (long version) (3:44) and "Stop! And Make Your Mind Up" (2:57). Neither of these two tracks can be found anywhere else, a fact which explains the high collector value. While the former track was produced by Tony Mansfield and remixed by John Ratcliff, the latter was produced by a-ha with John Ratcliff. Even though the song was accompanied by a unique video (not the cartoon) a picture disc was never released.

Tracks:

Seite A - Take on me (Long version) (Rare First Release Difrent version)
Seite B - And you tell me 

        B2 - Stop! And Make Your Mind Up

              Stop! And make your mind up

OUR GRADING:

MINT ---- It should appear to be perfect. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits. Mint means perfect.

NEAR MINT ---- Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident: slight ring-wear, minor denting to a corner, or writing on the cover should all be noted properly.

EX  ---- The record is in ex condition, not new but look like new condition with a perfect sound.

VERY GOOD PLUS ---- The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptably VG+ for most collectors.

VERY GOOD ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, but should not overwhelm the musical experience. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.

GOOD ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork
