Description

Over the next few weeks I will be selling some of the best pieces from my collection. I have worked in the record industry since the 1960s, and as a teenage plugger for Decca in the mid-60s I witnessed the birth of many of these 45s, and received the earliest copies of them.  Many are promos, and there are demos and acetates aplenty. Bands represented include the Beatles, the Stones, Bowie and others, as well as legendary psychedelic one-offs.

ARTIST

The Poets

TITLE

I Am So Blue / I Love Her Still

LABEL

Decca

DATE

1965.

DETAILS

Here's a MINT copy of this brilliant and very rare 45, produced by Andrew Loog Oldham.

CONDITION

MINT - I never played this and, though it has tiny spots on it from age, they can easily be removed. It is glossy and shiny and I can guarantee that it is unplayed.

COMMENTS

'Andrew Oldham was a true character - on my first Friday at Decca in 1965, I was taken to the Ready Steady Go! studio in Kingsway, swept past the security guards and down to the dressing rooms, where I met Andrew and the Stones. They shook my hand and said 'welcome to the company' in their London accents... heavy stuff for an 18 year old!'

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A GUARANTEED UK ORIGINAL PRESSING AND NOT A COUNTERFEIT.

PAYMENT

PAYPAL IS PREFERRED BUT UK CASH AND CHEQUES ARE ALSO WELCOME.

GOOD LUCK - AND REMEMBER: IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, WE CAN WORK IT OUT... THE BIDDER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!
