BILL HALEY AND HIS COMETS - SHAKE , RATTLE AND ROLL - DECCA DL 5560. HERE'S A SWELL COPY OF ONE OF THE FEW BONA FIDE 10" RECORDS FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF ROCK AND ROLL. THIS COPY HAS THE GREAT COVER AT A NICE VG++ WITH JUST A BIT OF WEAR (AS SEEN IN THE PIX). THERE'S A BIT OF LIFT TO THE WRAP PAPER TRHC AND A PRESSING CREASE BELOW THIRTEEN WOMEN ON THE COVER. BACK COVER HAS VERY SOFT RUBBING, TWO LIGHT PINKISH (INK?) MARKS IN THE CIRCLE AND 23 WRITTEN LIGHT IN PENCIL. EASY TO REMOVE IF YOU'RE INCLINED. APART FROM THAT THE COVER GLISTENS AND IS ROCK SOLID. GREAT SPINE!!!!! THE LABELS ARE VG+ WITHA LOT OF LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS, NO TEARS OR STAINS. THE VINYL IS A DECENT VG+ WITH SOME MARKS AND SCUFFS, NO SCRATCHES. PLAYS BETWEEN VG+ AND VG++ WITH SOME OCCASIONAL LIGHT NOISE APART FROM THE INHERENT 10" NOISE. SUPER COPY WITH GREAT FIDELITY AND A JUMPIN', ROCKIN' DELIGHT TO LISTEN TO!
