ATTENTION PSYCHEDELIC AND 1960s BEAT GROUP COLLECTORS-HERE IS A MEGA-RARE ITEM!
THE PRETTY THINGS"DEFECTING GREY"
THE "B"SIDE IS THE EQUALLY BRILLIANT TRACK:
"MR.EVASION"
ORIGINAL GERMAN 1967 COLUMBIA LABEL ISSUE IN A RARELY SEEN PICTURE COVER!!
OF COURSE THERE WAS NO PICTURE COVERS ON UK ISSUES WHICH ARE RARE ENOUGH BUT THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF THE RAREST PRETTY THINGS 45s TO BE SEEN ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN YEARS!
NOT INCLUDED ON THE AMAZING ALBUM"S.F.SORROW"BUT JUST AS GOOD WITH FANTASTIC GUITARWORK AND PRODUCTION!
ISSUED AT THE END OF 1967 AT THE VERY HEIGHT OF BRITISH PSYCHEDELIA,THIS IS AN ITEM NOT TO BE MISSED!
IT FAILED TO GET MUCH EXPOSURE IN GERMANY RESULTING IN VERY FEW COPIES SOLD AND IT WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A MONTH OF ISSUE-JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER-ESPECIALLY IN THE PICTURE COVER!
1967 COLUMBIA C 23 663+LARGE CENTRE HOLE AND THE 3 PRONG PLASTIC CENTRE AS SUPPLIED.
BEAUTIFUL LIGHT BLUE LABELS UNLIKE THE DULL UK BLACK ONES!
GUTSY SOLID MONO MIXES!!!
THIS IS VERY HARD TO FIND IN 2011 ON A 7"45!
THIS 45 SOUNDS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT IS VERY STRICTLY GRADED AS VG+++ DUE TO MAINLY COVER REMOVAL TYPE SURFACE MARKS BUT THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE- NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS. CLEAN LABELS. A VERY STRONG VG+++ INDEED!!!!
THE ALL IMPORTANT PICTURE COVER HAS A TINY 5MM TEAR AT THE VERY TOP,A LITTLE EDGE WEAR,A FEW FAINT STAINING SPOTS AT THE BACK AND A FEW ULTRA TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,NO RIPS,NO REPAIRS-IT WOULD LOOK FABULOUS FRAMED UP!
I CONSIDER £25 INCLUDING FREE RECORDED DELIVERY POSTAGE TO THE UK IS A BARGAIN START FOR A VERY RARE SINGLE.

ONE OF SEVERAL RARE 45s AND EPs OF THE 1960s FOR SALE THIS WEEK FROM ROCKING ERIC!CHECK 'EM OUT!!!!
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
However based on how infrequently these singles of OVER 40 years ago are turning up it is quite possible there MIGHT be keen bidding on this title so be prepared at the last minute to increase your bid!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
