Description
Recently a friend passed away - he was a gem of a person, and aside from the obvious sadness involved in all that, he was renowned for having one of the best collections of 60's Garage, Beat, Punk & Psychedelic 7"s, EPs and LPs (especially of Australian artists) - gathered together meticulously and carefully for longer than the 36 year period I'd known him. Some things he'd parted with over the past few years of little work and continuing overheads, and a small section was stolen by someone also well-known here (I suspect her karma will come) - but the bottom line is, he had amazingly good taste, and (like a previous recent collection I was selling here) the gems he had were mostly handpicked for excellence....[with some others gathered to complete (often very obscure) label collections].
Anyway, this is one of that huge collection...all of which will appear here over the next few weeks. ::ARTIST: The LA DE DA'S::TITLE: "HOW IS THE AIR UP THERE" / "I TAKE WHAT I WANT"
::FORMAT: …vinyl 7” single…
::LABEL: ZODIAC (distributed by Philips Electrical Pty. Ltd.)
::CATALOGUE #: AZ/1028
::MADE IN: AUSTRALIA::RELEASE DATE: c. Aug. 1966
::ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING?: ...Yes, it is...
::CONDITION (cover/record): (- / VG-) ...has quite a few marks but plays very well, with minor crackling on the 'B' side, and virtually NONE on the 'A' side coz they couldn't be heard if there was, thanks to the utter ferocity of the performance...never in pic sleeve...
::ORIGINAL COMPANY SLEEVE?: Yes
...Even better a prospect that the original NZ pressing, thanks to the inclusion of their garage-fuzz-punk version of the Hayes-Porter tune on the 'B' side (it's the best garage version of that song I've ever heard - by far)...but anyway, that's almost incidental to the monstrous punker on the 'A' side - all searing fuzz guitar from the opening note, and super-snotty vocals...it's equal to the tuff-est garage-punkers from anywhere...PHENOMEANL SINGLE!!!
====================================================::LABEL CONDITION:
