The Who Magic Bus - Promo Stickered + Signed Postcard UK 7" vinyl single (7 inch record / 45)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
Information:
On the 17th October 1968, Chris Stamp [The Who's manager], organised a tour of central London on a vintage bus to promote their new single 'The Magic Bus'. All band members were present alongside twelve girls, a baby lioness, and an assortment of other animals - what can we say, it was the '60s! The journey started at Bayswater Road and finished in the King's Road. It is not known if the promotional single was given out en route or issued simultaneously to radio stations, reviewers etc. We do know that there are very few surviving examples as they seldom appear for sale [just a handful of recorded sales online].
Condition:
Side A: Strictly graded Very Good as there are some scuffs/light hairlines visible. Playtesting reveals a great sounding record with very minimal background noise.
Side B: Strictly graded Very Good. There are some scuffs and hairlines visible, with one paper scuff more visible than others. Playtesting reveals little to no effect on playback.

Laine an aspiring drummer/Soho based musician who auditioned for
the band prior to Keith Moon joining and stayed in touch with them
thereafter. Pleases see more information below) )
