Description

PLEASE EXAMINE ALL PHOTOS READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION AND ASK ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BUYING!

Superb copy. Billy Boy’s first hit single. There are many reproductions of this scarce 45 out there – – this is the original! Only one other original copy on eBay and a few on Discogs (all listed as only VG+ and about $150 each).

Condition Details:

• Vinyl: Nice thick disc with original gloss. This copy appears rarely played and has been exceptionally well-preserved. A few minuscule marks here and there visible under light.

• Labels: Very clean with sharp text. Minimal wear on “I Was Fooled“ side.

• Audio: Classic 1955 Chicago Blues at its finest.

Notes: This is a top-tier collector’s copy of a foundational blues record. The "I Wish You Would“ side is a legendary track later famously covered by The Yardbirds and David Bowie. Finding an original 1955 pressing with this level of original factory gloss is increasingly rare. An investment grade archival copy.

Includes the original plain green sleeve!

Shipping: Professionally packed in a dedicated record mailer with cardboard stiffeners.

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL PRESSING NOT A REPRODUCTION.
