Description
JACKIE LEE COCHRAN - RUBY PEARL / MAMA DON'T YOU THINK I KNOW
Rare original US 1957 rockabilly 7" single, sample copy on DECCA, 9-30206
Matrix Numbers : Side 1 45 9715 3 Side 2 45 9718 3
Jackie Lee Cochran's only single - rare and sought after
Both sides of the vinyl have retained some of their original sheen but there are many surface hairlines and mild scuffs. Nothing obvious below the surface or immediately "feelable", however, so overall good+.
The labels are both good, with writing on both labels (see photos).
The audio quality is good+. There is mild background crackle/interference, more noticeable on side 2, and some very mild background clicking on side 2 but certainly still playable and side 1 is a good listen.
Comes in original Decca outer sleeve which itself is in excellent condition - no tears or splits and still fully functional.
If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.
If this record interests you then take a look at my other listings for more 50's, 60's and 70's classic vinyl.
A bit about myself : I have been collecting vinyl for more than 45 years and have amassed a huge collection covering a varied genre, but mostly of 1960's and 70's origin. Most of my records were originally bought by myself for my own collection, but over the years I have embellished my collection by buying records from a variety of sources : friends/acquaintances, car boots, auctions, and even through putting up a "vinyl wanted" notice in my wife's shop! I never intended selling any of my records but now I am retired and a combination of space requirements (caused partly by duplication) and a need to help fund my retirement has prompted me to "rationalise" my record collection and sell many of my much loved gems. My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I'll sort out the problem. I offer a "no quibble" refund policy.
On the subject of postage, I take great care in the packaging of all items, using a proper vinyl cardboard mailer along with at least two cardboard stiffeners. I take great care in removing the record from the outer sleeve in order to prevent sleeve damage in transit. I do NOT profiteer from postage costs. I DO take great care in minimising all risk thereby ensuring, as far as possible, that your purchase reaches it's destination in exactly the same condition as when I post it. For this item postage & packaging will be Royal Mail 1st class : UK £1.50, continental Europe £3, and Rest of the World £5. I do discount post & packaging costs for multiple purchases. Good luck with your bidding. Richard
