ITEM DESCRIPTION:
THIS IS ONE OF THE
HOLY GRAILS OF RECORD COLLECTING
NEVER ISSUED IKE TINA TURNER RIVER DEEP MOUNTAIN HIGH ON PHIL SPECTOR S
PHILLES LABEL PRESSED IN 1967 NO COVERS WERE PRINTED AND NEVER RELEASED DUE
TO THE SINGLE DID NOT SELL IN THE U.S.
THE LP WAS ISSUED IN THE UK BUT ON THE LONDON LABEL AND IN STEREO THIS IS THE UNIQUE MONO MIX ONLY FOUND ON THIS RARE UNRELEASED ALBUM
IN 1969, A M RELEASED THE ALBUM IN AMERICA, FINALLY, HOWEVER THEY ALSO USED THE STEREO MIX.
NOTE: I BOUGHT THIS AND SOME OTHER RECORDS FROM AN ESTATE SALE FROM A FRIEND OF PHIL SPECTOR. SHE KNEW WHAT SHE HAD AND SOLD STUFF TO ME AND IT WASN T CHEAP SHE OBVIOUSLY PLAYED THE RECORD AND THERE ARE SOME VISIBLE SCUFFS MOSTLY ON SIDE 1 BUT NO SCRATCHES AND THE RECORD PLAYS THROUGH WITH NO SKIPS OR SCRATCHES, JUST NORMAL SURFACE NOISE. THERE IS A LITTLE LABEL WEAR ON SIDE 1 SEE PHOTO WHERE THE RED LOOKS A LITTLE WORN OUT BUT THAT MIGHT JUST BE THE WAY IT WAS PRINTED.
Also included is the LP size envelope that Phil Spector wrote his friend s address on Spector fans know that classic handwriting and signed Phillip on the back flap.
IT S A BEAUTIFUL RECORD WITH LOTS OF SHINE AND GLIMMER STILL LEFT IN IT IT S SUCH A VALUBLE PIECE THAT IT TRULY IS A MARVEL TO LOOK AT. LET S FIND A GOOD HOME AND FILL IN THAT MISSING LINK IN YOUR COLLECTION
I HAVE A GOLDMINE PRICE GUIDE HERE FROM 2007 AND IT S LISTED AS 8000 IN NEAR MINT. OBVIOUSLY, THE VALUE HAS GONE UP SINCE THEN AND I HEARD THAT A COPY SOLD FOR OVER 10,000 A FEW YEARS AGO.
WOW
