AC/DC ~ Rockin' In The Parlour RARE Aussie debut 45

Albert AP-10551 <> 22 July 1974 (DAVE EVANS vocals)

AC/DC – Can I Sit Next To You, Girl 45 (orig. Australia STEREO Albert AP-10551—1974, NON-LP A-side)

Release date: 22 July 1974.

On offer here is an ULTRA RARE original issue of AC/DC's first Australian 7” single, with DAVE EVANS on lead vocals (pre-BON SCOTT).  The flipside of this single eventually surfaced on the compilation album 'Albert Archives'.  However, the A-side DOES NOT appear elsewhere.

These hardly ever turn up, so do not miss this opportunity to acquire one of the RAREST AC/DC VINYL ARTEFACTS ever issued worldwide!  This 45 was only ever issued in AUSTRALIA and NEW ZEALAND.
