1956 - RICHARD "LORD" BUCKLEY - THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS - NARRATION BY LORD RICHARD BUCKLEY / THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS - "HIP" TRANSLATION BY LORD RICHARD BUCKLEY - ORIGINAL RARE 7" RED VINYL - 45 RPM RECORD - PRODUCED BY LYLE GRIFFIN - RELEASED ON THE HIP RECORDS LABEL, VAN NUYS, CALIFORNIA - H-301-1/2 - SEE THE PHOTOS THAT HIPSTERS, FLIPSTERS AND FINGER POPPIN' DADDIES JUST MIGHT WANNA EYEBALL - CAN YOU DIG IT LARRY?

NOW FOR THOSE OF YEZ WHO DON'T KNOW ABOUT LORD BUCKLEY, HE WAS KIND OF A POET / COMEDIAN AROUND THE 30'S, 40'S AND 50'S. HE ACTUALLY PERFORMED IN A CHICAGO NIGHTCLUB AND AL CAPONE SAID THAT LORD BUCKLEY WAS THE ONLY PERSON THAT COULD MAKE BIG AL LAUGH. GOOD THING TOO FOR RICHARD, BECAUSE I WOULDN'T WANNA BE SOMEBODY THAT AL CAPONE DIDN'T THINK WAS FUNNY. IN 1969 FRANK ZAPPA RELEASED ONE OF LORD BUCKLEY'S CONCERTS ON HIS STRAIGHT RECORDS LABEL TITLED "A MOST IMMACULATELY HIP ARISTOCRAT" . YEAH, FRANK ZAPPA LIKED LORD BUCKLEY AND IF IT WEREN'T FOR FRANK IT WOULDA' TAKEN ME A LONG TIME IF EVER TO FIND OUT WHO LORD BUCKLEY WAS. . HOWEVER, I DO LIKE LORD BUCKLEY. HE WAS A UNIQUE PERSON AND THIS IS A VERY RARE ORIGINAL SINGLE.

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 59 YEAR OLD COLOR VINYL RECORD SINGLE AND STILL SOUNDS NICE. SOME BACKGROUND SURFACE NOISE AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT, BUT NOT OVERBEARING . YOU'LL FIND BOTH SIDES ENJOYABLE, NO CLICK, NO POPS, NO SKIPS. VISUALLY WHEN I MOVED BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD AROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB, EVEN THE VINYL LOOKS GREAT. I FOUND TWO LIGHT SURFACE MARKS ON ONE OF THE SIDES AND DIDN'T REALLY NOTICE MUCH AT ALL ON THE OTHER SIDE. ALTHOUGH I'M SURE WITH A 59 YEAR OLD RECORD THERE MUST BE MORE SOMEWHERE. IN ANY CASE, THERE'S VERY FEW, AND THOSE TWO THAT I FOUND LOOKED LIKE SCUFFS AND ARE NOT DEEP GROOVE SCRATCHES. THE LABELS HAVE A RED "SAL" STAMP ON THEM. DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, BUT NO WRITING AND VERY LITTLE NOTICEABLE WEAR. THE RECORD COMES WITH A COLLECTOR'S TYPE OF SLEEVE AND A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.
