Description

   Dance Album of CARL PERKINS

original & EXTREMELY RARE 1959 UK LONDON LP HA-S 2202

 You never see this record for sale. Reissues occasionally turn up, but never the original.

   

VINYL IN strong EXCELLENT CONDITION
SLEEVE IN VERY GOOD(-) CONDITION

Side One matrix: AYL-1146-1B

Side Two matrix: AYL-1147-1B

THIS IS NOT A RE-ISSUE! THIS IS A FIRST ISSUE, ROUNDED FLIPBACK COPY!

A very good-looking record, there are very light surface marks in evidence only and absolutely no major problems at all, the record playing superbly. The labels are similarly EXCELLENT with no writing, no damage, and light spindle wear making this quite a beauty. The original flimsy 50s sleeve is in respectable condition, with tape staining to edges, some tape still present, but given the flimsy nature of these sleeves, it has survived in strong condition. As with Elvis' HMV albums, they usually turn up with splits/tears or even sections missing. This sleeve is complete and largely undamaged. Certainly respectable, given the rarity and nature of the sleeve.

  

TRACK LISTING

BLUE SUEDE SHOES/MOVIE MAGG/SURE TO FALL/GONE, GONE, GONE/HONEY DON'T/ONLY YOU

TENNESSEE/WRONG YO YO/EVERYBODY'S TRYING TO BE MY BABY/MATCHBOX/YOUR TRUE LOVE/BOPPIN' THE BLUES

The son of a tenant farmer in Tennessee, the singer-guitarist was among several rockabilly performers to emerge from Memphis' famed Sun Studios whose fast-paced tunes and twangy lyrics would influence dozens of rockers to come, including the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Eric Clapton. At the same time that Perkins was helping launch rock music from his country roots, Chuck Berry's machine-gun guitar licks were reinventing the Blues as rock and roll. The two are acknowledged as perhaps the key figures in the birth of rock music in the late 1950s. John Lennon once said ``there was no music before Sun (Studios),'' and the Beatles would record three Perkins songs after meeting him at a 1964 recording session -- ``Honey Don't,'' ``Matchbox,'' and ``Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby'', all contained on this album.
