Description
This is somewhat of a rarity – a 1956 UK 1st press (and only UK press) copy of the eponymous LP by Big Bill Broonzy, on the Philips label.
A classic example of traditional southern US country blues, this copy has a VG sleeve with bottom edge/corner wear and some discolouration to the adhesive; but a solid spine.
Non-polylined (and so I’m assuming non-original inner) has a small tear in one side.
The disc itself is visible VG+ with lots of usage marks and light scrapes, but nothing feelable with a finger.

GRADING SYSTEM:
1. NM: Record/sleeve will be near-perfect or have maybe very minor scuff/s from being handled a few times or from the inner sleeve (potentially played once or twice).
2. EX: Record will have some minor scuffs and possible more noticeable marks preventing a NM grading; a record that was played very little and has been taken care of.
3. VG Plus: Record will have noticeable scuffs and light scratches from being handled and played, but nothing too deep as to affect playback. May have light background noise in quieter areas but still no major issues; a record that has been played and enjoyed but not abused.
4. VG: Record will have scuffs and scratches from being handled and played, causing noticeable background noise and some disturbances/pops but still enjoyable overall; still a good quality record that can be enjoyed with life left.
5. GOOD / FAIR / POOR: Record will have scuffs and major scratches. Can still be played but will have background noise and most likely major distractions such as sustained pops or skips. Records with this grade are used for rare albums or ones that would be best used only for display.
