ELVIS PRESLEY

Rock’n’Roll

1956 HMV

CLP 1093

Rare UK Debut LP from The King

Record:- GOOD – Plays Very Good

Record has loads of light marks/scuffs, some are very obvious but cannot be felt and don’t affect play. The record still sounds great. No obvious groove wear, the records has a decent sheen. Still sounds great. There is background crackle throughout and a couple of very light ticks on Blue Suede Shoes but the music still sounds great. A nice sounding original.

COVER:- FAIR

The original flimsy cover is present and useable but has tears/splits which have been repaired with cellotape some time ago, there is also some wear to the opening edge and some laminate lifting as usual.

GRADINGS

I use the UK record collector guide when considering gradings using a + or ? when necessary if a record/cover appears to fall between gradings as detailed below, please see below for details. They are based on my interpretation and are of course subjective. If I describe a quick test play it means I have checked in various parts to make sure there is not groove wear/significant distortion caused by poor equipment etc and/or checked scratches, I have not counted crackles.

I am very careful with my descriptions and in the majority of cases carefully clean and check each item and do not send out dirty records. But a reminder, if a record is graded at a lower grade it won?t get better in the post so please read the description carefully. Thanks

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.

(All records will have ultra-fine lines under direct light, even brand new ones. A record described as Mint would look like you just picked it up off the record shop shelf so may have very very light handling marks only)

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc.

Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
