Attention 1960s British Beat Instrumental and Doctor Who collectors!

 

Here is a very rare item, not often found these days: The Earthlings' "Landing of the Daleks," Parlophone R 5242. 

While it sounds much like a Joe Meek production with its sound effects and similar instrumental guitars, it isn't. It's a tribute to the Daleks!

The "B" side features an excellent instrumental: "March of the Robots." Despite its quality, it received very little radio airplay in 1965 and failed to chart.

This item is particularly tough to find, as most shops would only obtain the more obscure 45s by special order, and the single was not in print for long due to poor sales figures. Extremely rare and hard to come by item this, perfect for any Doctor Who/Dalek aficionado out there!

Owned by one very careful individual since 1965—a former employee who used to do work for the BBC. This is not to be confused with the repro/bootleg copies flooding the market; this is the authentic, original UK pressing.

Most copies have ended up in long-term collectors' collections and are becoming less frequent on eBay or anywhere else so please do not miss your chance!

An essential addition to any 1960s instrumental, Doctor Who connected, or 1960s non-hit 45s collection. It would also look wonderful framed up as an example of a very special single that will continue to soar in value!

This is an ex-jukebox edition. However, I am including a centre so it can still be played in modern players!
