Brett Smiley is an American singer-songwriter who was active in the UK during the Glam Rock era of the early 1970s. Smiley released one single in 1974, "Va Va Va Voom," and made an appearance on the Russell Harty television show, where he performed the B-side "Space Ace". You can see that performance here:

Smiley – who, at the time, was managed and produced by Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham – recorded an album, “Breathlessly Brett”. The album – which includes the songs "Va Va Va Voom" and "Space Ace" – remained unreleased until 2004, when RPM Records included it as part of its Lipsmackin' 70s collection.

In 2004, rock biographer Nina Antonia published a book about Smiley, “The Prettiest Star: Whatever Happened to Brett Smiley”.

This ultra-rare single is in ‘Ex’ condition and plays well on both sides.
