Description

On offer here is quite simply one of the RAREST LPs you will EVER see (especially in this condition!!!!) by Twice As Much called "Own Up" and is the ORIGINAL 1966 UK Acetate done for the LP on the ULTRA RARE Emidisc label (done for Immediate!)!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  IN FACT, IT IS QUITE SIMPLY COMPLETELY UNIQUE!!!!  WHILST TWICE AS MUCH WERE MAKING THEIR LP 'OWN UP' BACK IN 1966 - THIS 2 'ON-SIDED' SET OF ACETATES WERE MADE TO LISTEN TO THE TRACKS AFTER THEY HAD BEEN FIRST RECORDED!!!! THESE 2 'ONE-SIDED' ACETATES CONSIST OF THE FIRST 6 TRACKS THEY HAD RECORDED FOR THE LP, NAMELY 'THE SUMMERS ENDING', 'IS THIS WHAT I GET', 'WE CAN WORK IT OUT', 'NIGHT TIME GIRL', 'AS TEARS GO BY', AND 'PLAY WITH FIRE'!!!!  AND SOME OF THE TRACKS ARE DIFFERENT TO THE RELEASED VERSIONS - CLEARLY SHOWING THAT THIS WAS NOT THE FINISHED VERSION!!!!  AND THIS OF COURSE MAKES THESE ACETATES EVEN RARER STILL!!!!  THESE WERE UNDOUBTEDLY THE ONLY ACETATES EVER MADE - AND ARE COMPLETELY UNIQUE!!!!  AND OF COURSE THEY ARE SIMPLY HUGELY COLLECTABLE TO SO MANY COLLECTORS!!!!  THERE ARE 2 ROLLING STONES TRACKS ON THIS LP, 1 BEATLES TRACK, THIS WAS AN IMMEDIATE LP (MAKING THIS SET OF ACETATES ESSENTIAL FOR IMMEDIATE COLLECTORS!), AND OF COURSE THESE ACETATES FEATURED:- BIG JIM SULLIVAN, NICKY HOPKINS, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY JIMMY PAGE - WHO OF COURSE LATER WENT ON TO FORM LED ZEPPELIN!!!!  AND SO THESE 2 ACETATES ARE TREMENDOUSLY IMPORTANT - NOT JUST FOR THEIR DIFFERENT MIXES, BUT ALSO FOR THE TRACKS PLAYED, AND THE PERSONNEL WHO PLAY ON THEM!!!!  AND YOU SIMPLY CANT GET ANY EARLIER OR RARER THAN THIS - AS THESE ACETATES WERE MADE BEFORE THE LP WAS EVEN COMPLETED!!!! 

NOT ONLY THAT - BUT THESE ACETATES COME WITH THEIR ORIGINAL 'BLANK' FLIPBACK LAMINATED COVER!!!!  THE COVER IS CLEARLY ORIGINAL FROM THE DAY THESE ACETATES WERE MADE - AND SPECIALLY MADE FOR ACETATES USED IN THE STUDIO AT THAT TIME!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THESE IMPOSSIBLY RARE ACETATES HAVE SURVIVED IN REMARKABLE CONDITION!!!!  MOST ORIGINAL 1960s ACETATES HAVE LONG SINCE BEEN 'TRASHED' AND OVERPLAYED - RENDERING THEM USELESS.  BUT NOT THESE ONES!!!!  BECAUSE THEY WERE KEPT IN THEIR ORIGINAL COVER AND BARELY PLAYED - THEY STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'SHINE' AND LUSTER, AND HAVE NONE OF THE USUAL HEAVY MARKS OR DAMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH ACETATES FROM THIS PERIOD!!!!  IN FACT, THEY LOOK BRILLIANT!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1966 UK 2 'ONE-SIDED' SET OF ACETATES (FROM WAY BEFORE THE LP WAS EVEN COMPLETED!) ON ULTRA RARE 'EMIDISC' ACETATE LABEL (MADE FOR IMMEDIATE!), PLAIN INNER SLEEVES, AND 1ST PRESS 'BLANK' FLIPBACK LAMINATED COVER!!!!  THESE SET OF ACETATES ARE SERIOUSLY RARE AND COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (THEY ARE UNIQUE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL UK Acetate 1st Pressing from 1966 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  Unfinished Acetates DONT have 'Cat Numbers' (as when these acetates were made - a Cat Number hadnt been allocated yet!) - but the Cat Number of the eventually completed and released LP was IMLP 007!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and NO spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THESE ACETATES HAVE BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  BOTH acetates are in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  They BOTH have NO marks, NO flaking, NO cracking, NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, only 2 or 3 MEGA light scufflines, absolutely NO sounding marks of ANY kind, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE ACETATES STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL SHINE AND LUSTER!!!!  It is also great to find that the acetates play as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!!  PLEASE NOTE - it is VERY obvious that these acetates have NOT been cleaned in ANY way AT ALL and I have only played them through ONCE on the VERY lightest possible needle setting to avoid ANY damage!!!!  They plays with NO nasty loud pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and only some slight background crackle (which is common to all acetates)!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  BOTH acetates must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++ if not better - though in acetate terms from the mid 1960s these are more like Mint(Minus), as acetates from this period virtually NEVER turn up in better condition than these (unless they are dodgy fakes)!!!!  WHAT A BRILLIANT SET OF ACETATES!!!!  Believe me these acetates are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The acetates also comes in plain inner sleeves to protect them FULLY!!!!  The ORIGINAL 'Blank' Flipback Laminated Cover (specially made for acetates ONLY!) is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), 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!!!!  Naturally as the cover has contained these acetates from 1966 - it has faint 'bleed through' on the cover front, from the acetates that were contained within!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in SUPERB condition with NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT COVER!!!!  THESE SET OF ACETATES ARE QUITE SIMPLY AN AMAZING RARITY AND COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (THEY ARE UNIQUE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!  It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE LP!!!!  THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1966 UK 2 'ONE-SIDED' SET OF UNFINSHED ACETATES FROM THE LP "OWN UP" BY TWICE AS MUCH, IN BRILLIANT CONDITION!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.
