Louie Louie/ Haunted Castle

You know, it's harder than you might think to find a Near Mint or better copy of this 1963 classic. Despite the popularity of this single, most originals you run across aren't exactly "suitable for framing" (or for listening, more importantly). This is only the third or fourth truly collectible specimens I've run across, and I'm delighted to offer it in the store. Do note that both Rolling Stone magazine and Dave Marsh rate this single near the top their respective lists of the greatest 45s (#11 on Dave Marsh's top 1,001 and #54 on Rolling Stone's top 500). Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Wand Records factory sleeve. The A label has a small name inked in the white space near the top. The vinyl looks Near Mint, and the audio sounds very close to Mint. (This scan is a representative image from our archives; it doesn't show the small name.)
