Original 1956 first pressing of BB King's first ever album, Singin' the Blues, on Crown black label LP 5020. This copy is a great player and sounds wonderful. There is some scuffing and wear on the disc, but it plays loud and clear with background noise between songs and in quiet parts. Overall the sound is brilliant, easily overpowering any background sound most of the time.  No groove distortion and no skips. Sounds really present and clear. The cover has the usual se splits (I have never even seen a copy without them), on the top for about 1/4 of the way from both sides, leaving the middle of the seam intact. The spine is completely split, and the bottom seam is intact. The artwork is excellent and has barely the slightest scratch. Looks just amazing. A really fine copy, considering how bad most copies are.
