"MADE IN GT BRITAIN'' ON BOTH LABELS
JR IS THE STAMPER FOUND ON THE EXTREMELY RARE RED 'A' LABEL DEMO PRESSING AND SUPPOSEDLY STANDS FOR 'JOURNALISTIC REVIEW'
THE 'WOTZ' TAX CODE AND THE JR STAMPER ARE BOTH ON SIDE 2
THE VINYL RECORD LABELS AS YOU HAVE PROBABLY NOTICED DO HAVE NAMES ON BOTH SIDES UNFORTUNATELY A HABIT FROM THE LATE FIFTIES EARLY SIXTIES TO DETERMINE WHO OWNED A RECORD WHEN LENT OUT AT PARTIES FOR USE ON THE DANSETTE
VINYL RECORD SURFACES WHILE HAVING A LIMITED GLOSSY FINISH DO HAVE HANDLING AND NEEDLE MARKS TO BOTH SIDES SOME MORE PRONOUNCED THAN OTHERS BUT THE RECORD DOES PLAY THROUGH ON BOTH SIDES WITH SOME LIGHT CRACKLING AND THERE ARE NO SKIPS OR JUMPS
LABELS AS MENTIONED EARLIER DO HAVE NAMES TO EITHER SIDE BUT APART FROM THAT ARE ALL LEGIBLE
WE PLAY TEST ON A SIXTIES HI-FI FOR REVIEW SO YOU COULD GET A DIFFERENT RESPONSE ON MORE MODERN SYSTEMS
RECORD COMES IN ITS STRIPEY COLOURED SLEEVE AVAILABLE AT THE TIME
SIXTY YEARS OLD THIS YEAR THIS RECORDING AND BECOMING EVER HARDER TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION
