On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Who called 'A Quick One' and is a MASSIVELY rare 1966 MONO 1st Pressing on 1st Press 'textured' Reaction label!!!!  THIS LP IS MASSIVELY RARE IN THIS CONDITION!!!!  IN FACT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CONDITIONED 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP I HAVE SEEN FOR A VERY VERY LONG TIME!!!!  THIS LP HAS A BRILLIANT CONDITIONED VERY FLAT LOOKING COVER, AND A STUNNING RECORD!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP HAS AMAZINGLY ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE AND HAS THE BEST SET OF LABELS I HAVE EVER SEEN ON THIS LP!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY 3 MEMBERS OF THE WHO!!!!  NATURALLY ANYONE WISHING TO BUY THIS ITEM WILL WANT TO KNOW SOME HISTORY BEHIND THE SIGNATURES - SO I WILL EXPLAIN.

THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THIS LP WAS A WHO FANATIC, AND TOLD ME HE QUEUED UP AT HIS LOCAL RECORD SHOP TO BUY THIS LP ON THE VERY DAY OF RELEASE IN VERY LATE 1966.  A WEEK OR SO LATER HE HAD THE CHANCE TO SEE THE WHO PLAY LIVE, AND WENT WITH A GROUP OF FRIENDS TO SEE THE WHO PLAY IN CONCERT AT THE 'UPPER CUT CLUB' ON WEDNESDAY THE 21st DECEMBER 1966. IT WAS FAIRLY EASY FOR HIM TO REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE - AS HE SHOWED ME THE ORIGINAL 'FLYER' HE STILL HAD, AS WELL AS MANY OTHER 'PAPER' ITEMS WHICH HE SAID HE WOULD NEVER PART WITH!!!!  IN FACT HE HAD AT LEAST 6 OR 7 TICKET 'STUBS' FROM OTHER WHO CONCERTS - AND SAID HE ALWAYS WENT TO SEE THEM WHENEVER THEY PLAYED IN OR AROUND LONDON.  HE TOLD ME HE GOT THE LP SIGNED AFTER THE GIG IN A CROWD OF OTHER AUTOGRAPH HUNTERS!!!!  AFTER GETTING THE SIGNATURES HE COULDNT BEAR TO TOUCH THE LP AGAIN - KEEPING IT IN PRIDE OF PLACE IN HIS RECORD COLLECTION!!!!  HOWEVER - WHILE HE CLEARLY REMEMBERS THE LP BEING PASSED TO EACH BAND MEMBER, I PERSONALLY CAN ONLY SEE 3 SIGNATURES ON THE LP.  THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS CONVINCED ALL SIGNED THE LP - BUT I CAN ONLY SEE 3 SIGNATURES ON THE COVER - NAMELY JOHN ENTWISTLE, PETE TOWNSHEND, AND KEITH MOON.  YOU CAN SEE THESE SIGNATURES IN THE PICTURES BELOW.  OF COURSE THE PROBLEM I HAD WITH THESE SIGNATURES IS HOW TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THEM ON A BLACK LAMINATED COVER!!!!  HOWEVER I HAVE DONE THE VERY BEST I CAN - AND YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE PETE TOWNSHENDS SIGNATURE ON THE COVER FRONT, WITH JOHN ENTWISTLES RUNNING ACROSS IT DIAGONALLY.  KEITH MOONS SIGNATURE IS VERY CLEAR ON THE REVERSE OF THE COVER.  I HAVE DONE ALL THE RESEARCH I CAN ON THESE SIGNATURES AND I BELIEVE THEM TO BE 100% GENIUNE.  SO MUCH SO THAT I WILL GLADLY OFFER A COMPLETE REFUNDABLE GUARANTEE IF THEY ARE FOUND NOT TO BE GENIUNE.  HOWEVER THE PREVIOUS OWNERS STORY - COUPLED WITH OTHER GENIUNE WHO SIGNATURES I HAVE PREVIOUSLY SEEN LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THESE SIGNATURES ARE INDEED 100% GENIUNE. 

NOT ONLY THAT BUT AS I SAID BEFORE THIS LP IS IN SUPERB CONDITION AND IS EXTREMELY RARE IN ITS OWN RIGHT IN THIS CONDITION!!!!   THIS IS THE 1966 UK MONO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS 'TEXTURED'  REACTION LABEL, VERY THICK QUALITY VINYL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED 'E.J.DAY' COVER!!!!   THIS LP IS EXTREMELY RARE (ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION), AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND SIGNED BY 3 MEMBERS OF THE WHO - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Reaction MONO 1st pressing from 1966 and is in STUNNING condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is 593 002 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Textured' Reaction label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!! All the tracks are pure quality Who at their best!!!! Any fan of The Who, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and AMAZINGLY only 1 MEGA faint spindle mark!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE!!!!  The vinyl is in STUNNING 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, NO hairlines, only 2 or 3 MEGA light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under EXTREME light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply AWESOME with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Excellent(Minus) if not FULL Excellent!!!!  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 comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Poly lined' inner sleeve which is in STUNNING condition!!!! The 1st Press FULLY LAMINATED Signed Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour), VERY shiny laminate (VERY rare on this cover - most are heavily glazed), only a few light creases (cover is still VERY flat looking indeed), a VERY small area of laminate lifting next to part of the front spinal edge, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the laminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!! This cover must STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better - though most would grade MUCH higher!!!!  THIS LP IS EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND (ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION), AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND SIGNED BY 3 MEMBERS OF THE WHO - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS SERIOUSLY RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
