This is Butch Baker - Batman At The Go Go / Robin At The Go Go on St. Lawrence 1010. So what I hear you say? Well until recently, this was not even thought to exist. There are demo copies around, but due to an injunction by the makers of the Batman series, the record was withdrawn before stock copies could be manufactured. Or so they thought. Ask John Manship how rare this is...he told me he only saw a copy for the first time last year when one was found in Germany.
Condition is pretty nice. Apart from some minor noise right on the run in, although it's been well played I would still grade it as EX, EX- at the very worst. It has some residue where a sticker was removed and some rubbing of the label wither side. The rest of the label will come off if soaked for long enough. The B side - which is called Robin At The Go Go and not Working At The Go Go like the subsequent issue, still has a sticker which once again can be removed if done properly.
All in all a really nice piece which you won't see advertised again for a long time. I'm asking £250 for this one.
(p.s. the dark patch to the right of the sticker residue near the centre is where the label was still damp after I cleaned the record, it's now faded back to normal pink)
