Description
7" single:
T. REX "Ride A White Swan" b/w "Is It Love" & "Summertime Blues" (Regal Zonophone BUG.1) original 1970 IRISH pressing (blue/silver label)
RARE!!! Have you ever seen this? FLY RECORDS was set-up to release T.REX's first release "Ride A White Swan", with the catalogue number BUG.1 - but for some reason in IRELAND the single was pressed up on the old REGAL ZONOPHONE label but using the new FLY catalogue number! The record appears to have the same stampers as the UK release (matrix stamps: BUG 1 A-1 U and BUG 1 B-2 U - with KT tax codes on both sides).
On the flipside Bolan's name is spelled wrong, crediting "Is It Love" to MARK BOLAN.
A nice addition to any serious Marc Bolan, T. Rex collection.
CONDITION : VG+ (Sleeve/Record)
DESCRIPTION : Record has a few light surface scuffs, (but no scratches you can feel) and plays with a wee bit of light surface crackle... but like most old singles this is cut LOUD and is quickly drowned out when the music kicks in.
KEYWORDS : Mark Bolan, Marc Bolan, Dib Cochrane & the Earwigs, Vertigo swirl, Vertigo spiral, Harvest, Dawn, Blue Horizon, Neon, Deram Nova, Decca Nova, pink Island, Nepentha, psychedelic, progressive, freakbeat, folk etc.
PAYMENT : Buyer pays in UK pounds, cheque (in the UK), IMO or Paypal.
POSTAGE : 12"s/LPs : £2.60 (UK), £3.70 (Europe) and £6.20 (Rest of World) / 7”s/CDs : £1.50 (UK), £2.50 (Europe) and £3.50 (Rest of World). Double vinyl counts as two etc. Each additional record charged at half price.
SMALL PRINT : I am first and foremeost a collector, and grade strictly as I wish everyone would. Records will be well-packed between cardboard, and sent in record mailers. In the interests of the environment, these will be recycled whenever possible. Albums will be removed from outer sleeve to avoid seam splits in transit. All records are sent with a certificate of posting, if you wish additional insurance please ask – I cannot be held responsible for missing parcels.
