This original 1967 United Kingdom first pressing of The Who's psych-pop masterpiece "Pictures Of Lily" represents a premier acquisition for mod, garage rock, and British invasion vinyl collectors. Issued on the highly collectible Track Record imprint under catalogue number 604002, this foundational 7-inch 45 rpm single features the distinctive black and silver label design, complete with a traditional 3-pronged push-out centre. This release marks one of the earliest entries in the legendary Track Record catalogue, making it a highly sought-after piece of sixties rock history.
The dead wax areas reveal the earliest first-press stamped matrix groupings, displaying 604002 A ▽ 3 1 1 3 on the primary side and 604002 B ▽ 3 420 1 1 5 on the reverse. These crisp, original British stampers guarantee the authentic, punchy mono audio mix as Pete Townshend intended. The A-side features the power-pop title track with its iconic French horn solo, whilst the flip side showcases John Entwistle's dark humor on the stellar bass-driven cut "Doctor, Doctor".
The condition of this vintage mod record is strictly graded in strong VG+ condition. The vinyl disc remains clean, retaining an excellent degree of its original factory mirror gloss. Under intense inspection, the playing surfaces show a few minor surface marks that do not impact the overall strong visual presentation of this beautiful 1960s specimen. It stands as a great addition that would proudly anchor any vinyl collection.
