A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT...

THE KUBAS I Love Her (Mega rare archive quality 1965 UK 7" vinyl single with an intact four prong centre. The debut release from the English beat group from Liverpool, renamed as The Koobas on everything after this release, on the Columbia label.Also including Magic Potion, within a Columbia company die-cut paper sleeve. This was recorded to coincide with the bands appearance in the Gerry & The Pacemakers film, Ferry Cross the Mersey, but the footage was cut from the film's final release the single did not make the charts, however they did get to promote the single release by touring with The Beatles. This one previous owner copy remains in an outstanding condition, the labels have no spindle marks and the vinyl looks to have never been played. As an added bonus, there is a copy of a one page press release about the release of the single which should have been on the 11th December 1964, but pushed back to 1st January, which is why the label is printed with 1964 instead of 1965. A stunning example and the first we have ever seen!)
THE KOOBAS Koobas (2006 Korean limited edition 10-track vinyl LP, originally released in 1969; The Koobas were initially part of the exploding Merseyside scene in the early 60s, and soon became one of the most respected bands in the UK, releasinga number of singles on Pye and Columbia, before committing this incredible piece of pop-psych to tape in late '68 - original copies sell for £700 and it's easy to see why! An amazingly strong set of original songs, withsuperb arrangements and musicianship) ** Limited to 500 copies! **

Tracklisting: 1. Royston Rose 2. Where Are The Friends? 3. Constantly Changing 4. Here's A Day 5. Fade Forever 6. Barricades 7. A Little Piece Of My Heart 8. Gold Leaf Tree 9. Mr Claire 10. Circus
THE KOOBAS Sally (1967 UK vinyl 7" single with an intact four prong centre, also including Champagne And Caviar, Columbia company die-cut paper sleeve. The vinyl is a VG+/EX- grade, with just a few light surface marks to show for being almost fifty years old DB8103)
THE KOOBAS Barricades (Limited 1986 UK Bam Caruso 10-track LP repackaging of the classic 1967 'The Koobas' album, including illustrated biography/discography inner, picture sleeve. If you don't fancy shelling out £750+ for an original, this isthe copy for you! KIRI047)

A stunning example and only the second copy we have ever seen!)
THE KOOBAS Live In Germany (2017 UK limited edition 5-track MONO 7" vinyl EP released exclusively for Record Store Day - Brian Epstein signed the Koobas to a NEMS contract in 1964 and managed to get them a role in the film Ferry AcrossThe Mersey [which unfortunately for them ended up on the cutting floor].
