BERTICE READING
Rock Baby Rock / It's A Boy
1958 uk Parlophone 45-R 4462 (1N - 1N).
First off, both sides play a fantastic guaranteed MINT condition. Perfect sound throughout both tracks. No clicks or pops, & amazingly, NO CRACKLE at all. 64 years old, & this rare Rock & Roll single, plays like a brand new 45. & there Is absolutely no lessening In the superb sound quality at all. PERFECT audio throughout, that just cannot be bettered. GUARANTEED.!!!
Visually, both sides have a superb as new deep glossy sheen, all apart from some strange markings across a small area to both sides, they kind of look like finger prints / handling traces, but, I have cleaned the 45, and the markings do not disappear, so, a visual vinyl blemish caused during the pressing procedure. But, as mentioned, these small patches have absolutely no affect on the playing & sound of the 45 at all, as, both tracks really do play & sound as good as new. PERFECT MINT AUDIO throughout.
The labels are as new, & the original Parlophone Records paper sleeve, Is excellent & clean, with no, marks, rips, or splits.
So, a perfect playing / sounding first press 45, with a visual pressing blemish, that has absolutely no affect on play at all.
