Description

Over the next few weeks I will be selling some of the best pieces from my collection. I have worked in the record industry since the 1960s, and as a teenage plugger for Decca in the mid-60s I witnessed the birth of many of these 45s, and received the earliest copies of them.  Many are promos, and there are demos and acetates aplenty. Bands represented include the Beatles, the Stones, Bowie and others, as well as legendary psychedelic one-offs.

ARTIST

The Saxons

TITLE

Saxon Warcry / Click-Ete-Clack

LABEL

Decca

DATE

1965

DESCRIPTION

On offer here is an original copy of one of the most sought-after mod/freakbeat 45s of the 60s, especially for Joe Meek fans. The Saxons were the 8th (I believe) line-up of the Tornados, Meek's in-house backing band.

COMMENTS

'Joe Meek was an interesting guy - and all the stories about him recording in a converted bathroom are true! He had a reputation as a wacky guy, and though I never met him we used to use the Saxons' Clem Cattini all the time on our sessions at Decca.'

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A GUARANTEED UK ORIGINAL PRESSING AND NOT A COUNTERFEIT.

PAYMENT

PAYPAL IS PREFERRED BUT UK CASH AND CHEQUES ARE ALSO WELCOME.

GOOD LUCK - AND REMEMBER: IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, WE CAN WORK IT OUT... THE BIDDER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!
