BILL HALEY and the COMETS
ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK
ORIGINAL DECCA DL 8225
CONDITION: VG played a very nice VG+ (no static just a light pop here and there) till the last track "Rock-a- beaten Boogie" whch has a scratch that on a newer record would be disasterous but because of the very Deep Grooves on this (earliest of Rock Lps) it just moderately loud pops through most of the song. It doesn't ruin the song but whereas I'd grade the rest of the LP VG+ I'd grade this track G+ three was no static behind the pops.
COVER: VG- remnants of what I assume was tape on back cover, & a little on the edges & the front, not quite sure why the tape was there as there were not splits where most of the tape was. There were splits at the top & bottom corner which I carefully & invisibly glue repaired.
TO SEE THE CUTS PLEASE CHECK THE FIFTH PICTURE.
WIKIPEDIA
Rock Around the Clock was the third album of rock and roll music by Bill Haley and His Comets.
Released byDecca Records in December 1955 it was, like the two albums that preceded it, a compilation
album of previously issued singles. Most of the album's contents had in fact been previously issued by
Decca earlier in 1955 on the album Shake, Rattle and Roll. Unlike the previous release, which was in the
10-inch format, the new album was a full 12-inch release and included additional tracks from 1955. It was
also the first Haley album to make the Billboard charts, and was one of the very first album releases of
the rock and roll genre to do so.
The recording was made in the Decca Records studio located in the Pythian Temple in New York City.[2][1

NM (Near Mint): Record and cover appear virtually unmarked.
VG++: Will play NM or just short of it. Will have just a very few visual marks.
VG+ : Used but not abused. Will probably have some relatively slight audible imperfections.
VG : Many only surface lines or may have a small scratch that doesn't skip.Background sound but still enjoyable.
Cover defects will be noted.
VG-: significant background sound from various defects but music always quite audible above it.
Cover has some damage that will be noted.
100% ACCURACY IN GRADING RECORDS IS A JOB FOR SUPERMAN!
At times defects will show up differently on different players. For instance,
depending on the weight that a tone arm is set at or the quality of the stylus
what is just a pop on one player can sometimes be a skip on another
SO IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, BEFORE RATING ME ,
Because although I may not be Superman, I'm certainly not Lex Luther.
