Finding ANY of the first four Fats Domino's revolutionary, groundbreaking R&B/Rock'n'Roll albums IN GLORIOUS MONO, AND AS ORIGINAL, FIRST PRESSINGS is getting next to impossible these days.  We proudly present here a very nice copy of one such specimen. Fat(s) chance you will find another one like this any time soon. 

 

PLEASE NOTE: Wikipedia article on this album, which we have linked below, contains a MASSIVELY incorrect and misleading information which WILL needlessly confuse the prospective bidders. Namely, this album was NEVER released in the United States under the title "Carry On Rockin'" in any manner, shape or form, particularly NOT as an Imperial 12" LP 9009. The authors of the article have confused the American release, titled 'Rock'n'Rollin'" with the British/German release titled "Carry On Rockin'". Rest assured this is first, one and only original American pressing of this album, PERIOD.

·                               CONDITION:

 

·                               RECORD

 

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

 

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VERY GOOD++ . CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in a very nice and clean condition. There are some surface marks and abrasions, mostly light and superficial, although some may be longer than 1.1/4 inches (1 inch = 2.5 centimeters)

 

(b)          The record has a "deep groove" (an indent in the label about 1/2-inch from the edge of the label, which on SOME labels is associated with very early or first pressings).

 

(c)           Mono pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more  preferable to its FAKE ("electronically rechannelled") stereo counterpart. We estimate that FAKE stereo copies of this album outnumber monos by a ratio of at least 10:1.

 

(d)          This is the original flat-edge pressing

 

(e)             The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

 

(f)            True Stereo copies of this album are NOT known to exist.

 

(g)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

 

 

·       COVER

 

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD++ (VG++).

 

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

 

-         Cover has some visible fraying/tattering on all three seams

 

-         Cover has three corners slightly worn / dinged (nothing significant)

 

-         Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 3  (front side) and 4 (back side)

 

-         Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record),  probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.

 

-         Cover shows some light yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging   (nothing significant).

 

-         Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine   (BARELY VISIBLE)

 

-         Cover has a visible wrinkle (crease) in the cardboard base on the back panel

 

-         The cover has a few tiny scratch marks on the front side   (nothing significant)

 

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

 

-        No split seams  (yet!)

-        No cut-out (drill) holes.

-        No cut-out corners

-        No saw-marks or indents

-        No writing

-        No stamps

-        No peel-off marks

-        No stains

-        No mold or mildew spots

-        No stickers or labels

-        No water damage
