A Rare 78rpm Single. Ray Charles - Hallelujah I Love Her So / What Would I do Without You. 1956 - Atlantic Records (Number 1096).
Here we have a rare record. This classic record is very hard to get hold of, especially here in the UK. This is an absolute classic from the legendary Ray Charles.
I'm not sure how to grade records properly, but the record seems to play smoothly on both sides with no jumps. It looks to be in good condition and there are no chips or cracks. Obviously, due to the age there are surface scratches (The B Side has more scratches, I have tried to show these in the photos). Please remember that it is 63 years old, see the photos as a guide. The record comes complete with a nice old Atlantic sleeve which I presume is the original.
Record will be sent well packaged via Royal Mail 1st Class signed for service. Due to the value of the item, and the fragility of 78 records, local collection is fine if you prefer, from postcode LU33PB.
Please see my other items for more rare 78 records. Thank you for looking.
