Description
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!

THIS ALBUM, WHICH WAS ISSUED IN 10-INCH FORMAT, CONSISTS OF RECORDINGS PREVIOUSLY ISSUED ON SINGLES IN 1954 AND 1955, INCLUDING THE TITLE TRACK, AND “ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK”. ALTHOUGH AT THE TIME OF THIS ALBUM’S RELEASE IN EARLY 1955, “ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK” HAD NOT YET BECOME A MAJOR HIT. THIS WAS HALEY’S SECOND ALBUM, AND WAS ONE OF THE FIRST ALBUM-LENGTH RELEASES OF THE ROCK AND ROLL ERA, PREDATING THE RELEASE OF ELVIS PRESLEY’S FIRST ALBUM BY A YEAR.
