Description
PROMOTIONAL RARE RADIO DJ COPY - VEE-JAY 581"PLEASE PLEASE ME B/W FROM ME TO YOU" RELEASED: JANUARY 30,1964. (ACTUAL SCANS)
BLUE & WHITE LABEL READS : "PROMOTIONAL COPY"
AN VG++ TO EXCELLENT CONDITION OF THIS VERY RARE PROMO 45. VINYL IS A SOLID AND LABELS ARE NOT FADED, HOWEVER, THERE IS "LAB" WRITTEN IN BLACK PEN ON BOTH SIDED, THIS IS MAYBE DUE TO ITS USE AS A RADIO PROMO.
A GLOSSY SHEEN REMAINS TO THE GROOVES, AND TRULY APPEARS THAT THIS RECORD HAS SEEN TOO MUCH TURNTABLE TIME. IT HAS BEEN WELL PRESERVED AND CAREFULLY STORED OVER THE YEARS,
LABELS ARE EQUALLY AS BEAUTIFUL, WITH A HIGH-SHINE WHITE WITH NO HANDWRITTEN "X" THAT DESIGNATED THE AIR-PLAY SONG. I HAVE PUT A LOW STARTING BID OF 0.99p, AN REASONABLE RESERVE WHICH REFLECTS THE RARITY OF THIS VG++ TO EXCELLENT CONDITION OF MUSIC HERITAGE & MODERN DAY WISE INVESTMENTS TO HAND DOWN TO FAMILY.
PROMOTIONAL RECORDS WERE DISTRIBUTED FOR FREE IN ORDER TO PROMOTE A RECORDING THAT WOULD BE COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. "PROMO" RECORDS WERE SENT DIRECTLY TO BROADCASTERS, SUCH AS RADIO STATION DISC JOCKEYS, AND AT TIMES, MUSIC JOURNALISTS IN ADVANCE OF THE RELEASE OF COMMERCIAL "STOCK COPY" ISSUES, IN THE HOPE THAT AIRPLAY, REVIEWS, AND OTHER FORMS OF EXPOSURE WILL RESULT AND STIMULATE THE PUBLIC'S INTEREST IN THE COMMERCIAL RELEASE.
BECAUSE PROMOTIONAL RECORDS WERE PRODUCED IN SMALLER QUANTITY THAN RELEASES THAT WERE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC, THEY ARE CONSIDERED EXTREMELY VALUABLE, FOR THEY WERE NEVER RELEASED IN RECORD STORES.
BLUE & WHITE LABEL READS : "PROMOTIONAL COPY".
THESE PROMOTIONAL COPIES WERE ISSUED PRIMARILY TO RADIO STATIONS FOR AIRPLAY, AND MOST SURVIVING COPIES OF THESE SPECIAL ISSUED DISCS HAVE BEEN TREATED TO A WEALTH OF PLAY. THIS EXAMPLE IS IN VG++ TO EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A SHINY GLEAM 'STILL EVIDENT. IT IS OBVIOUS THIS RECORD HAS HAD SOME AIR- TIME PLAY. BUT HAS BEEN WELL PRESERVED OVER THE YEARS.

WRITING ERROR, IT SHOULD SAY, "AND TRULY APPEARS THAT THIS RECORD HAS 'NOT' SEEN TOO MUCH TURNTABLE TIME"!!! IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES AT THE RADIO STATION" BEAUTIFUL CONDITION!!!!
