Terry Noland – Self-Titled Rock ‘n Roll-Rockabilly Vinyl LP – Buddy Holly

$

40

Terry Noland and Buddy Holly went to the same high school in Abilene, TX.  They learned to play guitar together, and got their start together working with Norman Petty in Clovis, NM.  They had similar styles, with both writing, singing, and playing guitar on country driven rock ‘n roll.  They even recorded together.  This was Noland’s debut album, and you’ll hear Buddy (uncredited) playing guitar on several tracks.  This is a classic piece of vital rock and roll history.  The album was released on Brunswick in 1958, number BL 54041.  This is the original release of the album.  The vinyl still has its bright original luster though with multiple light surface scratches and paper scuffs.  Fortunately, as with so many of these 1950’s pressings, these barely impact play.  It plays beautifully with just very light background noise throughout.  The vinyl grades VG.  The album cover shows a hint of ring wear and light corner and edge wear including a thin two inch split in the middle of the bottom seam and a three inch split on the open side of the top seam.  There is a name written on the back.  The cover is in beautiful condition with a frame-worthy photo of the artist.  The cover grades VG+.

Grading Information

I use four grades in my grading:  NM, VG+, VG, and G.  The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition.  My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve.  The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or two small defects.  It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static.  On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album.   Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading.  Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there.  That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen.  In this case the vinyl will be graded VG.  Very occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G.  This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy. 

Shipping Information – Combined Shipping

Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates.  Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. Canada shipping rates have gone up dramatically. The first album will be shipped for $16.  Additional albums will be shipped for $4 per album, with up to five albums able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping.  At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost. 

The Canada cost determination also applies for all other International shipping, except that the first album is shipped for $23 and each subsequent is just an additional $5.00. 

All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening.  The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve.  I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments.  If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day.  Payment by PayPal is preferred.
