some recent singles finds
This must be the 3rd copy of this I have found in the wild
but this one is signed on the back!*
*not really
Sadly not signed but a most curious EP from 1965
Another EP (from the same 49p box) was this instrumental
oddity from 1963
I could find only one mention to this 7" released in 1963
the label Advision Ltd which normally released acetates,
so this is most probably privately pressed.
The A side of this tune was released as a gold flexi
(which I already have) but this vinyl copy has an exclusive
B side - with the sound of a lady saying "DAF Trucks" in a
sexy/husky voice over an instrumental backing.
I read somewhere that this was released for the first UK
Motor Show in 1978 - woo!
This is probably the best of the sevens I've picked up cheap
in the past few weeks. I have plenty of BBC 7"s but this really
was the first time I've picked this kids TV theme up with it's
oddly titled instrumental B side and it's an A label promo too.
It was nice to pick up an original mono UK issue, it turns out
that with it's 3 pronged centre intact it's a 3 figure rarity.
The crackin' debut release from '73 by Freddie and the lads.
Another addition to my collection of sound effects on vinyl,
this one has a great car crash!
