Description
Up for grabs this sought after Bowie grail - great mod sound on this tough to find uk 45 ! The 7" has no centre intact [there was one loose in the bag - i am not saying this is the og centre but i am not - sure why else it would have been in the sleeve?? !!] so this may be your chance to grab yourself a cheap copy of this rarity in parlophone company bag - i am grading both sides at vg+ / they play excellent [ a few hairline marks ] and this is a highly recommended record,do not hesitate to hit me with any questions you may have regarding this 45. i have tried to be as thorough as i can be with my description and photos - catalogue number is R5315 / elsewhere on label - orbit mus co. ltd 7XCE 18001 international signed for recommended [extra ] for overseas bidders !! "You've Got A Habit Of Leaving" would be Jone's first original "A" side (his debut composition "Take My Tip" was regalated to the bottom side of his previous 45 with The Manish Boys). The band's obvious Who/Kinks fetish is apparent from the moment Taylor's first chord strikes and the backing vocals bear the oft familiar Who-ish feel to them. Instead of a guitar solo there's an "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" styled "rave up" where Rivens does a series of swooping bass runs and Taylor elicits feedback and some wiggy Joe Meek sounding noodling while Jones blows some harp and then it all comes back to earth. The flipside, to me is the more powerful of the two as it tramps along at an almost Motown feel with it's mid tempo pace. The band provide shouting backing vocals and Taylor cranks out a brief blistering solo laden in volume and distortion.
Of course it failed to make any impact and the normally inept Horton did manage to get the band another record deal with producer Tony Hatch and Pye records, but first Davy Jones would change his name to David Bowie to avoid confusion with a diminutive Mancunian playing in the pre-fab four. Like the Parlophone release here, the Pye debut would not contain the Lower Third's name anywhere on the 45 label, hastening their disenchantment and immediate demise.
