ATTENTION 1960s BLUES/R&B COLLECTORS! HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 MONO 1ST ISSUE OF THE COMPILATION LP: "ELMORE JAMES MEMORIAL ALBUM" WHICH INCLUDES 14 TRACKS -MANY BEING INFLUENCIAL TO THE BRITISH BLUES AND R&B/BEAT GROUPS THAT FOLLOWED ESPECIALLY FLEETWOOD MAC! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS FOR THE TRACKS ON THIS ESSENTIAL 1965 ISSUED LP ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION!
THIS IS A 1ST PRESSING ON THE ISLAND PRESSED "ROUGH TEXTURED" SUE LABEL:ILP 927 IN SOLID MONO AND VERY THICK,HIGH QUALITY,100% FLAT VINYL! BACK IN THE MID 1960s,THERE WAS MINIMAL ATTENTION,PROMOTION AND SALES FOR THIS LP,WHICH WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE!
LOCATING A REALLY NICE ORIGINAL UK MONO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS GLEAMING SURFACES WITH JUST A COUPLE OF WISPY,COVER REMOVAL TYPE SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT AND THAT IS BEING MEGA STRICT! WOW! WHAT A FANTASTIC RECORD OF GENUINE UPGRADER STANDARD! IT PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY WITH NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS.I STRUGGLED TO HEAR MUCH SURFACE NOISE AT ALL! CLEARLY A COPY THAT HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS IN 50 YEARS! A BLUES RECORD COLLECTORS DREAM COMING TRUE FOR ONCE! STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION! MOST WOULD STATE MINT! NO SPINDLE WEAR.CLEAN LABELS WITH N O STAINING,WRITING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT!
THE LAMINATED FRONT+FLIPBACK COVER HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES AND SOME STAINING AT THE FRONT AND BACK EDGES AS WELL AS A TINY REF.NUMBER IN PEN AT THE BACK TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER BUT THERE IS NO OTHER WRITING,NO RIPS OR REPAIRS. EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS.
PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £30 STARTING PRICE BEARING IN MIND IT'S SERIOUSLY RARE STATUS-ESPECIALLY IN THIS HEART STOPPING CONDITION FROM JUST ONE CAREFUL OWNER SINCE 1965! MORE GREAT LPs FROM ME ON EBAY INCLUDING ANOTHER ELMORE JAMES SUE LABEL LP ENDING FROM ME ON EBAY FOR AUCTION,5 MINUTES BEFORE THIS AUCTION ENDS WITH ONLY ONE TRACK DUPLICATED ON IT.
FOR PEACE OF MIND AND AS THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND,I WILL ONLY SEND THIS LP SPECIAL DELIVERY OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR IN A SAFE,SOLID PARCEL BUT PERSONAL COLLECTION FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH IS WELCOME AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
LOOK AT MY FEEDBACK FOR SIMILAR RECORDS SOLD FOR TOTAL CONFIDENCE!
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
Checkout my feedback of over 18,000 comments of my standards and service many from some of the world's most respected collectors and dealers.Always adding quality Records, cd's and related items to ebay several times a week. Customers from all over the world regard my ebay selections as the #1 for QUALITY,VARIETY AND SERVICE.
UK Customers are very welcome to collect ebay winnings by prior email arrangement. 12 years on ebay and many more before as a keen collector! Thanks for looking and good luck.
