Description

SUN #224 CARL LEE PERKINS 78 RPM RECORD  -  LET THE JUKEBOX KEEP ON PLAYING/GONE GONE GONE

You are bidding on a very nice example of an early Sun Record out of Memphis, Tennessee. The legendary Sun label owned by Sam Phillips where Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash,Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Charlie Feathers, Billy Lee Riley, B.B. King and countless others walked across the threshold at 706 Union to make some killer recordings. Before Sam was knocking out Country and Rock-a-billy records he was listening to some great Gospel and Blues.

This is a great example of a country/bopper from Carl Perkins which dates from 1955. It's one of the tougher Suns to find on Perkins if you disregard his release on Flip. Sure wish I could have been there when this stuff was recorded..wow! Perkins was a great guy.

LABELS- O.K. Shows some wear but no writing, tears, stickers or other distractions.

PLAYING SURFACES-  Numerous scuffs, scratches and  slight greying. Someone loved this record and it was used but not abused. This played completely through on both sides with minimal surface noise and no skips or pops.  Nothing obtrusive. As with many Suns it plays better than it looks. No cracks, chips, labels or other distractions.  I would call this record a VG- in 45 terms due to the way the surface LOOKS, but it still sounds great.  Keep in mind that I'm a collector, not a grading expert. This is a very nice piece for theCountry/Rockabilly  collector or Sun Completist! If you don't like it send it back and I'll refund your money plus postage. I'll hang it on the wall next to my Perkins autograph and be happy as a clam.

NO RESERVE and the starting bid is 99 cents! You tell me what they are worth. Sure would love to keep the whole collection, but if you saw the basement, garage and storage area you would tell me to downsize. Also have dreams of buying my daughter an early Gibson "A" style mandolin for her birthday so it's time to raise some funds!!!

I prefer to ship USPS priority mail but am flexible.

Please pay within 24 Hrs. of auctions end.

We will ship overseas but the buyer will pay all costs.
