Description

PLEASE NOTE:-  For 45s and EPs my description will look different, as with 45s especially there is FAR less to describe and it does not warrant the descriptions that my LPs get.
Good luck if you decide to bid - and please take a look at this AMAZING item below:-


RARITY:-   Extremely rare with a double tax coding.  Why?  Because this allows us to date this 45 EXACTLY.  It was first released in the UK in March 1957 on the Gold Print HMV label.  In June 1957 the labels were changed to 'Silver Print' instead and the Tax codes on the run off grooves were changed from RT to XT.  In June 1957 ONLY - the RT tax code was DIRECTLY OVERLAID with the 'new' (at the time) XT tax coding.  Both Tax Codes are readily visible on the run off grooves!  After June 1957 the RT tax code was removed leaving the common XT tax code ONLY.  And this is pretty important as this 45 remained in print throughout the rest of 1957 and most of 1958!  So this 45 only missed the Gold Print labels by a matter of days only - and can be dated EXACTLY to June 1957 only 4 months after the release date!  

And even MORE importantly - this 45 has EXTREMELY early 1/T 1/T Mother & Stamper codes!  This clearly shows that this 45 was one of the first 2700 copies ever made, and would have missed the Gold labels by only DAYS only!  This 45 is quite literally the EARLIEST & RAREST HMV Silver Pressing of this 45 ever made!!!!

COUNTRY:-  UK

MONO/STEREO:-  MONO

PRESSING:-   JUNE 1957 PRESSING - 1N/1N MATRIXES, OVERLAID RT/XT TAX CODING, AND EXTREMELY EARLY 1/T 1/T MOTHER & STAMPER CODINGS!

ARTIST:-  ELVIS PRESLEY

TITLE:-  ALL SHOOK UP / THAT'S WHEN YOUR HEARTACHES BEGIN

CAT NUMBER:-  45-POP 359

LABEL:-  HMV

DATE:-  1957

SIGNS OF PLAY:-  BARELY ANY!

LABELS:-   EX+ (An absolutely SUPERB set of labels!)

RECORD GRADING:-   The record is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition!  It has NO scratches, NO hairlines, only 2 VERY light scufflines (that are completely NON SOUNDING!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!  The record plays with NO skips, NO pops, NO distortion, NO groovewear, NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!  The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better!  An absolutely BRILLIANT record and VERY strictly graded indeed! 

SLEEVE:-  An ORIGINAL Beige HMV Company sleeve with Red Print.  I do not know if it is original to the record or not - but it is original and from the period.  Perfectly sound structural condition with NO splits, NO tears and NO writing!  It is probably original to the record, but I remember years ago someone said there were many different issues of company sleeve for each year in the 1950s and 60s - and it is something I have no interest in studying.  So please treat the auction as for the record only - and the company sleeve as a free bonus.  Because I refuse to get into a conversation about a company sleeve that is freely available anywhere and everywhere if it isnt the right condition/year.

DEFECTS OUTSIDE OF THE GRADE GIVEN:-  N/A

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy!  Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords.

PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt.   MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):-  Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.  Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002.  However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever.  However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out.  Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself.  On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!).  I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs!  And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.  THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER!  No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged.  Any questions - please ask!
