A UK Apple Records vinyl pressing of the 1969 Delaney And Bonnie album ‘The Original Delaney And Bonnie’. The album was intended for release by Apple Records on 30th May 1969 but was withdrawn due to contractual reasons. This is one of a small number of pre-release copies that were pressed. Both sides have the 1 G Stampers. The A-side matrix number is SAPCOR-7A EKS-74039-A S2. The B-side matrix number is SAPCOR-7B EKS-74039-B S2.
The condition of the labels is very good plus. The condition of the vinyl on side one is very good plus. The condition of the vinyl on side two is excellent.

An excerpt from the book Those Were The Days The Beatles And Apple by Stefan Granados reads as follows:
'Another project seemingly lost in the shuffle was an album by the American rock-soul act Delaney and Bonnie. Apple had planned to release their album entitled ‘Accept No Substitute’ on 30th May. Given the catalogue number Sapcor 7, copies of the album had been pressed and were waiting for covers when Apple cancelled the whole project due to contractual disagreements with the duo.

The plan to issue the Delaney and Bonnie album in the UK may have been scuttled in part by Apple’s reluctance to pay advances but the inconvenient fact that Delaney and Bonnie were under contract to Elektra Records in the United States is likely to have played a more significant role in the non-appearance of a Delaney and Bonnie album on Apple. For the next year or so, lucky visitors to the Apple office would be given copies of the sleeveless Apple pressing of the album. Copies would also be given to any interested Apple staff and artists.'
