Description
RCA Victor 37-7880
This is a very rare piece of Elvis music. It is from my personal collection and for the serious collector. Issued in 1961, this 7" (Compact 33) single contains the following songs I FEEL SO BAD (matrix no# M2PI-2569-3S) and WILD IN THE COUNTRY (matrix no# M2PI-2570-3S). It comes with a special, colorful (red-white-blue) picture sleeve.
Concerning the condition: RECORD The record is very glossy on both sides with no warping. On side 1, there is a (not very noticeable), 6" scuff in the song grooves. On side 2, there is one minor scuff. I doubt if this record has ever been played. I do not play my records. Therefore I do not play-grade them, but I would consider this record in the "M-" category.
Concerning the condition: SLEEVE The colors are bright and vibrant. There are minor wrinkles across the top opening on both sides. There is moderate "ring wear" (from storing) on both sides; less on the "I Feel So Bad" side. The sleeve was folded crooked - noticeable at the left margin - (red/white) matchup ("I Feel So Bad" side). There is a 5" wrinkle/crease across Elvis' forehead, again - the "I Feel So Bad" side. There is a small (3/16") blemish surface tear at the top of the "red" on the "right" seam on the "Wild In The Country" side. Overall, I would consider the sleeve to be in the "VG++" category.
If you collect rare pieces, you will want this one. Good Luck!
