GOOD RECORDS FOR GOOD PEOPLE! FINE VINYL CAREFULLY COLLECTED & CURATED, CLEANED & CARED FOR, THOUGHTFULLY RESEARCHED, PLAY GRADED and VISUALLY GRADED , PHOTOGRAPHED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHTS AT MANY ANGLES SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE GETTING = 100% GUARANTEED! STORY PART 2: THE REST OF THE BEST. 1983 DECCA GERMANY TRUE FIRST PRESSING. PLAY GRADE: STRONG VG++. NOTES: UNDENIABLY ONE OF THE MOST RARE & SOUGHT AFTER ROLLING STONES COLLECTIBLE RELEASES. When the original HIGH FIDELITY German Decca release of this essential collection of early sides was pressed, it was hyped as containing AS A BONUS AN EXCLUSIVE 7″ 45rpm RECORD WHICH WOULD BE THE ONLY LEGITIMATELY PRESSED & RELEASED VERSION OF “COCKSUCKER BLUES IN HISTORY. However since you know the content of the song, this was very quickly decided against and SUBSEQUENTLY IT IS NOTED THAT NO COPIES WERE COMMERCIALLY RELEASED AS SUCH, WITH VERY FEW HAVING BEEN EITHER ISSUED TO PRESS OR “RESCUED” BY OBSERVANT PEOPLE. While it is UNKNOWN EXACTLY HOW MANY copies of the 7 had been secured, IT SIMPLY IS QUITE RARE IN THESE DAYS OF FEVERISH VINYL COLLECTING TO FIND A TRUE LEGITIMATE COPY FOR SALE. The evidence for THIS GENUINE PRESSING is as follows = IDENTIFIABLE AS PRESSED ON TRUE VIRGIN VINYL (BROWNISH/AMBER TRANSLUCENCY WHEN HELD UP TO BRIGHT LIGHT), EXHIBITING A MACHINE STAMPED MATRIX IN THE DEAD WAX, SINGLE SIDED, PLAIN WHITE LABEL ON PRESSED SIDE, PLAIN BLACK LABEL ON BACK. The song itself is the ORIGINAL RECORDING PERFORMED ONLY BY MICK & KEITH AS DOCUMENTED. As for the condition of the package as a whole, this is a VERY NICE LOOKING & NICE PLAYING EDITION. Some light forgivable storage/shelf wear to the box & inner sleeves. You can see the 2 bottom box corners are split, resulting in some paper wear however the resulting”flap” is still quite solid to the construction of the box. The 45 has some marks as well and plays perhaps more in grade with audible artifacts but is still VERY BOLD & ENJOYABLE & POWERFUL IN BOTH AUDIO & HISTORICAL CONTEXT.
