You are looking at what we firmly believe is the earliest known Rock'n'Roll 7" record and the earliest known EP, possibly the earliest known Rock picture sleeve - all rolled into one.  If another earlier Rock specimen of this nature exist, it can ONLY be another Bill Haley & the Comets record. This beauty actually predates BOTH Elvis Presley's "That's Alright Mama" by a few weeks AND the earliest known Johnny Burnette Rockn'n'Roll Trio 7" single by more than a year. If this is not a piece of Rock'n'Roll History, we surely don't know what is.  By rights, Bill Haley should be, ahem, hailed as the Man Who Invented Rock'n'Roll (with apologies to Jackie Branston & Ike Turner, whose 'Rocket 88' is more an uptempo Jump Blues than a real Rock'n'Roll)

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted below, ALL records are graded visually, NOT play-graded!)

(d)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS STRONG VG++. A few light abrasions  ARE VISIBLE, but they appear fairly  insignificant relative to the overall condition of the vinyl, and are only moderately visually distracting. For most part, the vinyl looks impeccable, without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(e)           Stereo copies of this EP record are NOT known to exist.

(f)            Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER (PICTURE SLEEVE)

THE SLEEVE IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD++ (VG++).

-         Front sleeve has a few yellowish dust speckles scattered here and there (these tiny spots are not overly obtrusive or distracting)

-         Sleeve shows some  yellowing on both sides (particularly the back), apparently from aging.

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE SLEEVE
