An absolute cornerstone of British blues-rock, this 1964 original UK pressing of The Rolling Stones - "Not Fade Away" 7-inch single is a superb piece of rock history. Released during the height of the British Invasion on the legendary Decca label under catalogue number F 11845, this authentic 45 rpm record showcases the classic unboxed blue and silver label variant with the original 4-pronged centre completely intact. Audiophile collectors will appreciate the specific matrix stamps present in the runout grooves, displaying XDRF-32719-T1-2C KT 1 IH on Side A and XDRF-32729-T1-1C KT 2D UC on Side B, capturing the raw, historic master audio of the band's early studio era.

The music tracks capture the group at their energetic best, delivering a definitive cover of the Buddy Holly classic "Not Fade Away" on the topside, backed by the moody, harmonica-driven rhythm and blues of "Little By Little" on the B-side. Finding genuine 1960s Decca singles that still retail with their original period company sleeve in nice condition is a becoming harder, making this historical collectors item highly desirable for rock enthusiasts worldwide.

The condition of this vinyl record is carefully graded as Excellent/Very Good (EX/VG). The iconic orange and white Decca company sleeve has been preserved beautifully, remaining clean, vibrant, and remarkably crisp. A faint, minimal sticker mark is barely visible on the A-side label, whilst the 7-inch vinyl remains bright and clean overall, carrying a few surface marks that do not detract from its strong visual appeal. This is a brilliant opportunity to secure a foundational rhythm and blues single for your record collection.
