THE ROLLING STONES
"NOT FADE AWAY" b/w "I WANNA BE YOUR MAN" 1964 US ORIGINAL LONDON 9657 WITH PICTURE SLEEVE!
MEGA-RARE 1964 US ORIGINAL VERY FIRST AMERICAN STONES PICTURE SLEEVE SINGLE! "I WANNA BE YOUR MAN", WHICH WAS THEIR FIRST TRUE CHART HIT IN ENGLAND (WRITTEN BY LENNON-McCARTNEY) WAS ALSO ISSUED IN THE US AS THEIR DEBUT SINGLE IN 1964, WITH THE SAME B-SIDE, "STONED". THE LENNON-McCARTNEY MAGIC FAILED HERE, AND THE B-SIDE TITLE RAISED SOME EYEBROWS, SO THE UK FOLLOW-UP SINGLE, "NOT FADE AWAY", WAS COUPLED WITH "I WANNA BE YOUR MAN" AS THE FIRST AMERICAN SINGLE TO BE ISSUED WITH A PICTURE SLEEVE AND A BIG PROMOTIONAL PUSH. THIS WAS MUCH MORE SUCCESSFUL AS FAR AS RADIO PLAY WENT, ALTHOUGH THE PICTURE SLEEVE EDITION WAS ISSUED IN A VERY LIMITED RUN MAKING THIS SLEEVE NOW VERY RARE AND HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER. PLUS, WITH SO MUCH BLACK INK ON THE SLEEVE, THIS IS VERY PRONE TO WEAR RING. THIS COPY IS VERY NICE, IT HAS RECORD STORAGE IMPRESSION BUT NO ACTUAL WEAR RING! STILL OVERALL CLEAN, NICE AND FLAT, WITH A GORGEOUS 7". FOR LONDON PICTURE SLEEVES, ONLY "DANDELION" IS AS HARD TO FIND WITHOUT WEAR RING DUE TO SO MUCH BLACK INK. THIS IS A BEAUTY.
TYPICAL RECORD STORAGE IMPRESSION BUT NO WEAR RING SMALL, VERY SLIGHT BEND/CREASE ON CORNERS, STILL NICE AND SHINY, OVERALL STILL FLAT AND CLEAN, LABELS AND PLAYING SURFACES ARE BEAUTIFUL. NO STICKERS, NO WRITING! STELLAR!
SLEEVES IN EX CONDITION
RECORD IS NM, APPEARS UNPLAYED. YOU WON'T FIND ANOTHER IN THIS CONDITION.
PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, THANKS.
