Description
On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Sorrows called "Take A Heart" and is an ORIGINAL 1965 UK EXPORT MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Piccadilly / Pye label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST UK BEAT/PSYCH LPs EVER MADE - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1965 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE, AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS AN ULTRA RARE UK EXPORT!!!! AND THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!! BACK IN 1965 GERMANY HAD A FEW SMALL ORDERS WAITING FOR THIS LP AS SOON AS IT WAS DUE FOR RELEASE. HOWEVER - THEY SIMPLY DIDNT HAVE THE FACILITIES TO PRESS THIS LP (AS THE LP IN GERMANY WAS STILL BEING PREPARED!) - AND SO PICCADILLY (PYE) IN THE UK SENT OUT SPECIALLY MADE EXPORT COPIES FOR THEM TO USE!!!! AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM!!!! PICCADILLY (PYE) IN THE UK SENT OUT A BATCH OF UK 1ST PRESS FLIPBACK COVERS, AS WELL AS UK 'MOTHER DISCS' FOR GERMANY TO PRESS THEIR RECORDS FROM!!!! AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY THIS LP ACTUALLY HAS UK 1ST PRESS A1/B1 MATRIXES!!!! ALL GERMANY HAD TO DO (UNTIL THEIR COPIES WERE READY FOR SALE!) WAS TO PUT THEIR OWN PYE LABELS ONTO THE UK DISCS - AND SELL THEM INSIDE A UK 1ST PRESS FLIPBACK LAMINATED COVER!!!! ONLY A FEW HUNDRED UK EXPORT 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP WERE EVER MADE - AND IT IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER SORROWS RELEASE EVER MADE!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION OVERALL - AND PLAYS VERY WELL INDEED!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1965 UK EXPORT 1ST PRESSING ON 1ST PRESS PICCADILLY / PYE LABEL, 1ST PRESS A1/B1 UK 1ST PRESS MATRIXES, 1ST PRESS PYE INNER SLEEVE, AND UK 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' FLIPBACK LAMINATED 'PATENTS PENDING' MONO COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Piccadilly / Pye UK EXPORT 1st Pressing from 1965 and is in GREAT condition overall!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is NPL 38023 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Piccadilly / Pye label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!
The record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with NO wear (apart from a VERY minor touch around the centre holes!), NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition overall!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has only a few light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! Curiously, there is also some faint 'dappling' to the vinyl under light, though this has to be from the ORIGINAL pressing - as it does NOT affect play in the slightest!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO nasty loud pops, only a VERY few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must grade Good++++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and plays VERY well indeed!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Pye inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated 'Patents Pending' MONO Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only 1 TINY pinhole in each of the top two corners (IMPOSSIBLE to notice!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good+ if not better!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
