This is an original UK first pressing of the Small Faces landmark 1966 single "Sha-La-La-La-Lee" on Decca Records, catalogue number F 12317. This scarce variant features the iconic blue and silver unboxed Decca label layout with the historic ffrr ear logo and the intact four-pronged push-out centre. The labels also display the correct vintage K/T tax code marking it out as a true earliest issue. Both sides carry the earliest stamped matrix sequences in the runout grooves, XDRF-37259-T1-1C on side A and XDRF-37260-T1-1C on side B.

Visually and audibly, the vinyl grades as very good plus, remaining clean with nice gloss and just a few superficial surface marks. The original sleeve is also very good plus, showing some age-appropriate creasing at the outer edges but remaining structurally sound. Side A features the classic title track while the B side contains "Grow Your Own".
