THE 5 ROYALES - PLAY FOR YOU
RARE ORIGINAL PRESSING - KING 616. Bought it from old warehouse stock in 1970. VVG condition.
If you are from the USA, Brazil or Asia, please check the shipping price before bidding.
I'm Selling My Collection: From 1970 - 1983 I was a rock critic in the UK and US - Sounds, NME, CREEM, Rolling Stone, etc. I also worked at EMI and Island, managed Generation X and The Go-Gos, run a club, been a DJ, ran labels...All the time, I collected records. Now I'm selling them.
EVERY RECORD & CD I LIST IS MINE - 99% of the time I got them when they were released. I really took care of them. I did my best to keep everything in perfect condition.??There's a lot of BS on eBay hyping up how rare the seller's records are and how perfect the condition is. I describe these records as honestly as I can. The discs are inspected in daylight. Please use the Zoom function on the photos to check for yourself.
ABOUT THIS RECORD:
EXTREMELY RARE! ORIGINAL PRESSING - KING 616.The Five Royales were a really big influence on STEVE CROPPER. One listen to guitarist LOWMAN PAULING and you'll know why. He's years ahead in his playing and cutting guitar sound.
I got this from Village Music in Mill Valley, San Francisco in 1970 - a really famous record shop in the US with an amazing selection. The owner would find warehouses filled with brand new stock leftover from the 50s. It's been kept in a plastic sleeve since the mid-1970s.
Played very few times. VVG condition.
CONDITION:
Record is 80%. A few light pressing marks [common in 50s discs like this] that don't affect play. A needle mark on Side 2 Track 5 & 6 - otherwise very clean. Perfect labels with no spindle wear. Heavy vinyl disc.
Cover is 80%. No marks. No wear on corners. A split along half of the bottom edge - a common thing with King sleeves. Some light dirt wear on the front from storage. Check the photo under the Zoom feature.
