A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT...
| TONY RIVERS & THE CASTAWAYS God Only Knows (Rare 1967 UK
double sided metal based 7" high quality methyl cellulose lacquer
acetate for the single release, also including Charade, plain company
die cut paper sleeve. This copy would be visually graded VG/VG+ if it
were vinyl but happily plays through without fault. As they are made in
extremely small numbers for sonic reference use, their rarity as a
collectable is unquestioned)
Tracklisting: An acetate is a transitional stage between the master tape and the finished vinyl record.
Originally acetates were used for home recording in the days before tape recorders, but since the advent of cassette tape & CDR are now no longer used for providing bands & their entourage copies of today's studio efforts. A machine actually cuts the grooves into the acetate like a lathe.
The acetate is used to assess whether the music has been successfully transferred to disc. It is checked by the sound engineer. There may be only one copy made of a particular recording, sometimes more are cut and sent to the studio and band members for approval.
The acetate comes before making the master, and allows the sound to be checked without great expense.
It is unusual for more than a dozen to be manufactured, so from the collector's point of view an acetate is a rare find indeed. If the recording is rejected the acetate may be the only record that survives. The rejected cut may simply be poor quality, however the artist may have opted to use a different take of the song, if so, the acetate becomes much more precious.
An incredible find - possibly unique - and certainly one of only a handful. | | TONY RIVERS & THE CASTAWAYS God Only Knows (Rare 1967 UK
