THE RECORD CONTAINS THEIR DEBUT & EARLY HITS.
ACCLAIMED AS THE FIRST ROCK N' ROLL RECORD. OWN A PIECE OF MUSIC HISTORY!!!!!!!
CONDITION:
VISUALLY THE VINYL HAS LOTS OF HAIR LINE SCRATCHES & SCUFFS BUT THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT GROOVE SCRATCHES.
PLAYED IN ITS ENTIRETY THERE IS BACK ROUND SURFACE NOISE THAT IS NOT OVERLY DISTRACTING & THE MUSIC OBSCURES. THERE WERE NO "TICS" OR SKIPS. FOR A 66 YEAR OLD RECORD AND ACCORDING TO GOLDMINE STANDARDS I WOULD GRADE IT AT VG+.
AS PICTURED THE TOP FRONT COVER AND BACK COVER ARE DAMAGED. THE COVER IS NOT BINDED ON THE TOP & BOTTOM AS PICTURED.
THE GRAPHICS ON THE FRONT COVER ARE STILL STRONG.
THIS IS A RARE COLLECTORS ITEM THAT WOULD ALSO BE GREAT TO FRAME FOR DISPLAY. . THE RECORD ALONE WITHOUT THE COVER IS WORTH THE PRICE!
