Description
The first 45 pressing of Lloyd Price’s first record! A very important early r&b record which influenced many later artists including Elvis Presley and John Lennon. Really beautiful copy, retains original smooth pristine glossy surfaces on the vinyl. Clean, bright undamaged labels. Nicest copy I have seen and the highest grade copy currently available anywhere. Play tested sounds great! This will be your final upgrade. Includes the original company sleeve. An investment in music history! Please email me any questions before buying and I will answer promptly. See my grading scale below.
My Visual Grading Scale—
Mint: A new record. I will rarely if ever use this grade.
Near Mint Gem: My highest grade. A truly beautiful record approaching mint condition. Will satisfy the most discerning collector.
Near Mint (NM): Appears almost unplayed. May show slight signs of handling or sleeve wear but no scratches or scuffs. Retains original gloss. Labels will be near perfect. A very high grade record that will satisfy almost any collector. The highest grade I will normally use.
Excellent (Exc): May have a few very light unfeelable scratches or scuffs. Retains much of it’s original gloss. A high grade record that will satisfy a demanding collector. Labels will show very little wear.
Very Good Plus (VG+): Will have several light unfeelable scratches or scuffs. May retain some original gloss. Labels may show light wear. Still a very collectible record.
Very Good (VG): Quite a few light scratches or scuffs or other issues and possibly a few feelable ones. Labels may show a fair amount of wear. Record will appear a bit worn. Still a collectible record that will satisfy undemanding collectors.
Good (G): Record will have many scratches (some deep), scuffs or other issues. Labels may show heavy wear. Will appear very worn. The lowest grade I will ever offer.
