Vinyl: ROG(ROGER)WHITTAKER & HIS COMPANIONS:"MUD PUDDLE".1964 FONTANA+COVER.EXCELLENT.

ATTENTION 1960s SINGERS,FONTANA LABEL AND 1960s NON-HITS COLLECTORS!

HERE IS A VERY RARE ITEM,NOT TO BE FOUND VERY OFTEN AS GOOD AS THIS!

ROG(ROGER)WHITTAKER AND HIS COMPANIONS: "MUD PUDDLE". THE"B"SIDE="ACRE OF WHEAT".

THE FIRST COPY I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS AS A DEALER AND ONE OF THE HARDEST TO FIND SINGLES OF THE 1960s,YEARS BEFORE THE SINGER BECAME AN INTERNATIONAL STAR.

ALTHOUGH HAVING A MAJOR HITS FROM 1969 ONWARDS,THERE WAS VERY LITTLE ATTENTION,EXPOSURE OR SALES FOR THIS SINGLE IN THE UK WHICH WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF ISSUE-HARDLY ANY COPIES SURVIVE ESPECIALLY AS GOOD AS THIS NICE EXAMPLE!

PHILIPS PRESSED FONTANA TF 437 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1F/2F MATRIXES AND SOLID MONO MIXES. THIS IS VERY HARD TO FIND.

CLEAN LABELS. NO WRITING OR STAINING. THE PUSH OUT CENTRE IS FULLY INTACT.

HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT COMPANY COVER THAT IS VERY CLEAN AND CRISP WITH JUST A"449" IN PEN IN ONE CORNER. PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS! EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A FEW FAINT/LIGHT SURFACE MARKS IN STRONG LIGHT BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! NO LOUD CLICKS, SWISHES,STICKS OR JUMPS. STRICT GRADING AND OF COURSE THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION -YOU'LL WAIT YEARS TO FIND ANOTHER!

I CONSIDER £5 A LOW AND REALISTIC STARTING PRICE FOR THIS ITEM BUT EXPECT KEEN BIDDING AS IT IS RARELY SEEN ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE!

MOST COPIES HAVE NOW ENDED UP IN LONG TERM COLLECTORS COLLECTIONS AND ARE GETTING LESS FREQUENT ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN 2014!!!

NOT A DODGY REPRO AS MAY EXIST

THIS IS A GENUINE UK 45!!

(MORE DETAILS BELOW)!!!

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VERY NICE COPY OF THIS FANTASTIC AND RARE SINGLE

-THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!

AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANY ROGER WHITTAKER COLLECTION AND WOULD LOOK WONDERFUL FRAMED UP!

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN DREADFUL CONDITION.

YOU MAY NEVER FIND ONE AS GOOD AGAIN!

JUST LOOK AT MY PHOTOS!

AN ELITE ITEM FOR ANY COLLECTOR OF SERIOUSLY RARE 1960s RECORDS!

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD EXPERTS/DEALERS.

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED DEALER, MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE!!

45s WERE USUALLY PLAYED A LOT BY DJs AND IN THE"ROUGH"WORLD OF"DJing"SO OFTEN LEFT OUT OF THE COVER,BADLY TREATED OR EVEN THROWN OUT AFTER USE!

HARDLY ANY THOUGHT LONG TERM INVESTMENT!!!!

The MONO mixes are brilliant and full of bass.

Vinyl is still the best way to hear 1960s MUSIC and always will be! A FANTASTIC ITEM!

GREAT INVESTMENT FROM ONE OF THE WORLD'S LEADING RECORD EXPERTS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is hardly any spindle wear.

THE PRINT IS STILL VERY CLEAR AND SHARP.

THE COVER IS IN NICE ORDER!

It's been on many collectors wants lists for YEARS.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "EX"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS!

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
