Description
ELVIS PRESLEY SELF TITLED DEBUT LP ULTRA RARE 1956 ORIGINAL INDY MONO LPM-1254.
LP has been hand cleaned and ultrasonically cleaned; original cover has been hand cleaned, as has the
plastic inner sleeve.
VERY RARE original Indianapolis LPM-1254 pressing of Elvis' earth-shattering debut from March 23, 1956 on RCA's deep groove black label with large Nipper The Dog at the top, pale pink and green lettering and logo box on the cover (Presley is in neon green on later pressings and the logo box is black), the sixth song on the side A label, Just Because, is erroneously credited to P.D. (this was corrected on the 1956 Indianapolis repress to Bob Shelton/Joe Shelton/Sid Robin), "NEW ORTHOPHONIC" HIGH FIDELITY to the right of the center hole and Elvis' name in small print above it on the labels, Camden, New Jersey address in the lower label rim text!!!
LP looks and plays at a Very Good grading (using Goldmine Standard Grading). The entire LP has been played on a high-quality turntable and sounds very good. There are no skips. It has several scratches and plays w/some background noise and very few pops. The ORIGINAL Cover is a Good grading. The top is fully split and the bottom is 2/3 split. The spine has a small split at the top. There is a small amount of writing on the spine, and a small amount of writing on the back lower right corner. There is a tear on the cover, front and back, at the opening. The inner sleeve is a generic sleeve (not the original sleeve). See photos of LP, cover, and sleeve to view specifics.
This was the shot heard 'round the world when released to an unsuspecting public 70 years ago and remains one of only a handful of LPs seismic enough to have changed the entire musical landscape. One of the most important and influential LPs in the entire history of recorded music and an incredible piece of rock and roll history.
LP matrix side A: G2 PP1282-3S A1; side B: G2 PP1283-1S.
