Description


Elvis Presley`s 2nd Album on the HMV label CLP 1105
Other copies of this album can be found on site that are easily reaching 300 and even 400 quid with sleeves that are repaired with sellotape, torn edges, missing laminate and parts of the cover non existent- BUT its the record condition that is more important than the sleeve.
This album i offer here is in fantastic condition for its 65 years! I have just listened to the whole album for the first time in many years Of the 12 songs which play perfectly with no clicks, jumps or skips is a collectors dream find
There is no background hiss, if there is, I sure never heard any, just good clean and clear sound
Both Labels are clean and complete with no markings and the dog is as white as could be with the Gold print being easy to read  Side 2 label the word MASTERS has a bit of discoloration on the gold print
The original Poly lined Inner Sleeve is also clean and tidy with the warning on the front around the center hole that you should `Check Your Gramophone Needle Regularly` etc. etc. etc. 
The Album cover is NOT the original as its thicker card than the original copy, which was thinner card It does have the half moon cutouts in the top and bottom fold-overs and has a high gloss finish back and front.
Does it matter if the Album cover is a reproduction?  This one is in mint condition and the sleeve notes can easily be read on the back 
The important thing at this price is the fact that the record is ORIGINAL and plays without skips or jumps with no scuff marks and little wear around the spindle hole 
This collectors item is for the the fan who wishes to replace a less desirable copy of this release that has a near mint Sleeve. Or a fan who wishes to own a near mint copy of the Album at a low cost despite the reproduction sleeve. Perhaps you will pick up an original sleeve at a later date
