AS MANY COLLECTORS MAY ALREADY KNOW, THE SPENCER DAVIS GROUP WERE CONTRACTED TO ISLAND RECORDS AT THE TIME OF THIS LPS RELEASE. HOWEVER, BECAUSE ISLAND WERE A VERY SMALL COMPANY AT THE TIME & WOULDNT BE ABLE TO COPE WITH THE DEMAND EXPECTED - FONTANA PRESSED & SOLD THEIR RECORDS INSTEAD!!!! AND SO, ON THE REVERSE OF EVERY 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP - THERE IS PRINTED 'AN ISLAND RECORD PRODUCTION' TEXT!!!! HOWEVER, WHAT MAKES THIS 1ST PRESSING REALLY SPECIAL - IS THAT IT ALSO HAS THE THE 'ISLAND RECORDS' LOGO PRINTED ON THE COVER BACK ASWELL (SEE PICTURES!)!!!!

No is TL 5295 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Fontana Label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 3 or 4 VERY light hairlines, only 3 or 4 light scufflines, only 1 TINY surface mark, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!! It is also GREAT to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!! The record plays with NO nasty loud pops, only a VERY few light clicks from the TINY surface mark mentioned above (these do NOT last long AT ALL!), NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must grade Very Good+!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!! The RAREST EVER 1st Press Laminated Cover (with FULL Island Logo on the reverse of the cover!) is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only 2 VERY small stains at the VERY bottom of the cover, only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good+ if not better!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ULTRA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
