Ostensibly, along with Duane Eddy’s "Have Guitar…" album, this was one of the first two or three Rock & Roll albums ever recorded in TRUE STEREO. And, what a glorious LIVING STEREO it is! From the opening holler of the Gospel-laden "When the Saints go marchin’ in" to the closing SHOUT of their self-titled mega-super-ultra-uber-monster hit (covered by practically everyone in the Universe, and beyond), this majestic, wide-channel stereo recording sucks you into the world of its own; you will feel that you are in some strange space, surrounded by three VERY spiritually-sounding voices.  The Isleys, of course, were barely of legal age when this album came out (actually, Ronald was only 16), but their professionalism, good judgment, maturity and perfect sense of timing - all their trademarks - were absolutely obvious and at display even at this early stage. The songs are: When the Saints - St Louis Blues - Yes, Indeed - How deep is the ocean - Ring-a-ling-a-ling (Let the wedding bells ring) - Rock around the clock - He’s got the whole world in his hands - That lucky old sun - Respectable - Without a song - Shout (parts 1 & 2) . Even the mono version of this album is perversely hard to find in good condition, let alone as LIVING STEREO version. And, of course, there’s the cover: the classic cover which can easily be framed and displayed as a work of modern photo art (a great example of photo chiarroscurro, if you wish). Miss it now, and you SHOUT later!

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VERY GOOD+(+) . CAUTION: The vinyl is NOT MINT or NEAR MINT, but is nevertheless in a very nice and clean condition. There are some surface marks and abrasions, mostly light and superficial, although some may be longer than 1.1/4 inches (1 inch = 2.5 centimeters)

(b)          The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(c)             The record has a "deep groove" (an indent in the label about 1/2-inch from the edge of the label, which on SOME labels is associated with very early or first pressings).

(d)            The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(e)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD++ (VG++).

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 2   (front side) and 4 (back side)

-         Back cover has circular tarnish (grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record),  probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.

-         Cover shows some light yellowing on back side, apparently from aging  (nothing significant).

-         Minor shelf wear noted on the seams (nothing significant)

-         Cover has one corner slightly worn / dinged / bent.

-         Cover has a partially split top seam (between 1 and 2 inches  / 2.5 to 5 centimeters)

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-        No cut-out (drill) holes.

-        No cut-out corners

-        No saw-marks or indents

-        No writing

-        No stamps

-        No peel-off marks

-        No stains

-        No mold or mildew spots

-        No stickers or labels

-        No water damage

-        No razor marks, scratches, pressure marks, lines, streaks, or  cuts.

-        No warping

-        No wax, glue, paint or liquid drops on the cover

-        No glue traces or wax residue.

-        No bar codes

-        No RIAA stamps or stickers.
