Description
HERE IS A VERY NICE COPY OF THE RARELY SEEN 1ST BRITISH ROCK AND ROLL 10" LP:TONY CROMBIE AND HIS ROCKETS:"ROCKIN' WITH THE ROCKETS" FROM 65 YEARS AGO IN 1956.
THERE WAS VERY LITTLE SALES OR ATTENTION FOR THIS LP WHICH WAS DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION. MOST 10" LPs OF THIS VINTAGE THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION.
IT'S THE EARLIEST GOLD PRINT AND "GROOVED" COLUMBIA LABELS WITH THICK AND FLAT VINYL.33S 1108 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1N/1N MATRIXES AND THE R T RAISED PRINT TAX CODE ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL.
THE RECORD HAS SOME VISUAL LIGHT/FAINT SURFACE MARKS BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE. NO LOUD CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS.JUST A FEW ISOLATED FAINT "POPS" MAINLY IN BETWEEN THE TRACKS AND THAT IS BEING STRICT.GREAT SOUND!
SERIOUSLY AND STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION.
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL "TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOUR RECORD" POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "BRIT.APT APPLIED FOR" TEXT AND THE FULLY LAMINATED+FLIPBACK COVER.
THE COVER HAS A TINY PIECE MISSING AT THE FRONT LEAD IN EDGE AND A COUPLE OF SMALL TEARS AT THE FRONT LEAD IN EDGE+SOME SMALL EDGE CREASES AND A LITTLE MILD "AGE STAINING" AT THE BACK BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS.THIS COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO GET THIS LP! IT'S THE FIRST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN OVER 20 YEARS!
THERE IS A £75 STARTING PRICE. PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
POSTAGE:UK SPECIAL DELIVERY ONLY ON THIS RARE LP. £8. EUROPE SIGNED FOR ONLY £15 REST OF THE WORLD £25.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
