ALWAYS INSIST ON ORIGINAL LABELS FOR TOP 40 HITS!
VERY RARE, OBSCURE 50'S ROCKABILLY DOO WOP SINGLE
HERE IS THE RARE ORIGINAL 1958 issue of "Teenage Martha" b/w "My Love, My Love" by ANDY WILSON on the BULLSEYE 45 rpm label, #1012. This record rocks with a Rockabilly. LITTLE RICHARD type bassline, and the vocals are strongly Doo Wop influenced. FANTASTIC sounding single! IMPOSSIBLE to find in this NM(-) condition.
TOP 40 INFO:
Released IN 1958, it doesn't show up on the top 40 charts. Possible over number 40. I don't even remember buying this, but it's in my collection, so now it's yours if you win. It rocks and sure had hit potential.
CONDITION OF RECORD & TEST PLAY RESULTS
We always grade our records conservatively using Goldmine as a guide, and we try to go a bit lower for a margin of safety. Thus, a record in factory condition is lowered from Mint to a NOS M-, and a used, NM record will be lowered to a VG++ or NM-. Many of our customers are pleasantly surprised to find that they purchased a much higher grade record! WE TEST PLAY OUR RECORDS AND OFFER AN MP3 FILE SO THAT YOU CAN HEAR THE ACTUAL QUALITY BEFORE YOU BID AND BUY.
