Description

THE FRAYS - KEEP ME COVERED / WALK ON

      

 MEGA-RARE 1965 UK DECCA 45 F.12153

matrix numbers: DRF-35431-T1-1C & DRF-35429-T1-1C

VINYL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION
COMPANY SLEEVE IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION

      

Do not hold your breath before you see another copy of this 45. This is seriously MEGA-RARE. I've never seen a copy of this record before, and may never see one again.

The record itself is in VERY GOOD condition, with nothing to spoil your enjoyment of this Freakbeat rarity. It's obviously been played many times, but it's still in very respectable playing condition. Far from trashed, believe me! With more than a little "YARDBIRDS" feel to it, this is quite an underground 1965 sound. The labels are free from writing and major damage and must grade EXCELLENT-. The sound quality is, in fact, better than VG, but overall, visually I will grade this VG.

The Frays were notable as an early group association for Mike Patto, prior to his association with Timebox and his solo career, although his involvement with the group is more rumor than hard fact. The band, such as it was, made a pair of singles for Decca in 1965, including a cover of "Hang on Sloopy" featuring Nicky Hopkins at the piano that failed to
chart. Their best recorded work, however, was the B-side of their debut, "Keep Me Covered," which is regarded as something of a mid-'60s British R&B classic.
 THE FRAYS were:

CLIVE HOWES lead guitar, MARTIN HUMM drums, BARRY LLOYD bass, & JOHN PATTEN (MIKE PATTO) vocals
