Description

Hi there! Now, I just bought a VERY nice but small collection of vinyl from a late 70's/early 80's Mod/Punk collector, who really knew his stuff...but not only that, he was one of those guys who liked his records to remain in the SAME condition he bought them in (that may include the odd item that was not perfectly mint when he bought it)...everything was in plastic covers, stored in solid well-structured boxes, the tops of the records did NOT poke up above the box rim so they didn't get flattened/bent by another box being put on top...you get the gist, right. Every item had been LOVED, and treated with respect...we love people like that, right? Anyway, this is from that collection:

ARTIST: the THROB // the WILD CHERRIES

TITLE:   self-titled
FORMAT: …vinyl 7” EP…
LABEL:    Raven
CATALOGUE #:   RV-05

Rare original 1979 Australian release...first pressing - 1000 numbered copies (this is #864)...

...tracks are: the WILD CHERRIES - THAT'S LIFE / KROME PLATED YABBY / GOTTA STOP LYING.....the THROB - FORTUNE TELLER / BLACK / SHE IS MINE

Lobby Loyde was lead guitarist for the Wild Cherries and all three tracks here are absolutely monster garage punkers, with a heavy psych edge. The first two tracks by the Throb here were the 'A' sides of their sole two singles - with "Fortune Teller", they've taken the Stones version and amped it up hugely so it's a roaring garage punk killer, while "Black" is moody snarling primitive garage-y R'n'B of the highest order; "She Is Mine" is the 'A' side of the first of two 45's they did as the No-Names in 1964 - tougher than Merseybeat, but not quite Stones/Pretties garage/R'n'B, although you can tell where they were heading.

...Label condition: [ SIDE ONE = MINT ; SIDE TWO = MINT ]...

CONDITION: (cover/record): (EX-/M-) ...stunning condition...

If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).

You can pay in US$'s, Australian $'s, or UK pounds...whatever suits you best (using www.xe.com for any conversions).
