ELVIS PRESLEY"ELVIS IS BACK"1960RCA STEREO 1ST PRESSING

	£		42
	$		56

AN ORIGINAL 1960 STEREO 1ST EDITION ELVIS PRESLEY LP IN EXCELLENT CONDITION+ THE VERY RARELY SEEN"STEREOPHONIC"INNER!

THE VERY FIRST ELVIS STEREO LP FROM 50 YEARS AGO WHEN HARDLY ANY POP FANS WERE BUYING STEREO OR EVEN KNEW WHAT IT WAS!

THE FIRST UK STEREO LPs WERE ISSUED IN 1958.

TO START WITH, ONLY EASY LISTENING,CLASSICAL AND JAZZ MUSIC WERE ISSUED IN THE NEW FORMAT AND WERE VERY EXPENSIVE WITH MANY SHOPS NOT STOCKING THEM,ONLY OBTAINING TO SPECIAL ORDER.

REMEMBER YOU HAD TO BE QUITE WELL OFF TO BUY THE EARLY STEREO EQUIPMENT!!!!

YOU COULD NOT CONVERT THE EXISTING MONO RECORD PLAYERS OF THE TIME! 

VERY SELECTIVE POP ARTISTS HAD STEREO ISSUES AND IT WAS NOT UNTIL THE MID 1960s THAT DUAL MONO/STEREO RELEASES CAME OUT.

INFACT SOME LABELS CONTIUNED WITH A MONO ONLY POP LPs POLICY UNTIL THE END OF THE 1960s! THIS WAS ONE OF THE VERY FIRST POP/ROCK AND ROLL STEREO UK LPs!!!!! 

THE PRINT RUN FOR STEREO LPs,ESPECIALLY TEENAGE AIMED WAS EXTREMELY SMALL.

THOSE THAT DID SELL WERE OFTEN PLAYED ON POOR EQUIPMENT, SO OFTEN MONO EQUIPMENT IN ERROR,RUINING THE DELICATE GROOVES FOREVER!!!!!

VERY FEW SURVIVE, 50 YEARS LATER!!!

THE FIRST DECENT COPY TO BE SEEN ON EBAY OR ANYWHERE IN MONTHS FROM A RELIABLE POWER SELLER AND LONG TERM COLLECTOR!  

ELVIS PRESLEY

"ELVIS IS BACK"

RCA SF 5060"LIVING STEREO"GROOVED LABELS.

1D/1D MATRIXES-EARLIEST POSSIBLE!!! 

SUPERB EXAMPLE HOUSED IN A CLEAN  GLOSSY GATEFOLD COVER WHICH APART FROM NEEDING STICKING DOWN WHERE THE GLUE HAS DRIED OUT AT THE BACK EDGE!

THERE IS ALSO A LITTLE LAMINATION PEELING AND A COUPLE OF CREASES TOP LEFT CORNER.

NO WRITING! NO STAINING!NO REPAIRS!

THE STEREOPHONIC INNER WAS ONLY INCLUDED ON THE EARLIEST RCA STEREO RELEASES.

IT ENDED ABOUT 1962, REPLACED WITH A MORE GENERAL"HANDLE WITH CARE"TYPE.

IT HAS THE PINK PRINTING AND IS THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL AND CORRECT ONE USED!

I HAVE IN THE PAST SEEN SOME DEALERS USING THE DECCA"BLUE"STEREOPHONIC INNERS WHEN THEY OBVIOUSLY DON'T HAVE THE CORRECT ONE-JUST LOOK AT MY FEEDBACK AND WHAT ELSE I HAVE TO SELL-ALWAYS THE ABSOLUTE CORRECT INNERS USED ON ALL OF MY LPs!

IF I DON'T HAVE THE CORRECT ONE, I WILL STATE AS SUCH!

YOU RARELY EVER SEE THIS PINK PRINTED STEREOPHONIC INNER ON ANY LPs,LET ALONE AN ELVIS PRESLEY ONE OF 50 YEARS AGO!!! 

AN ALBUM THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN RARE IN STEREO,ESPECIALLY IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT 50 YEARS LATER IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS GOOD AS THIS ONE!

THE MAJORITY WERE PLAYED ON RADIOGRAMS,PORTABLE PLAYERS AND EVEN THE MOST CAREFUL FANS WOULD HAVE PLAYED IT DOZENS OF TIMES,THIS COPY HAS HAD HARDLY ANY PLAYS AT ALL!

GLEAMING SURFACES WITH ONLY A FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE-JUST THE ODD"POP"HERE AND THERE!

A SHORT LIVED 15 SECOND SURFACE"PATCH" SOUNDS AT THE START OF SIDE TWO.

REPEATED PLAYING/CLEANING MAY REMOVE IT!

THIS COPY HAS CLEARLY NOT HAD MANY PLAYS!   

 OUTSTANDINGLY QUIET VINYL!

NO HORRIBLE"DISTORTION FIZZ"!

I LISTEN WITH THE TREBLE ON TO HEAR SUCH POTENTIAL GROOVE DAMAGE!!!  

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN UPGRADER/ULTIMATE COPY -THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.

MUSICALLY ELVIS PRESLEY WAS A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON SO MANY AND THIS HAS SOME GREAT TRACKS PROVING THERE WAS LIFE AFTER HIS SPELL IN THE U.S ARMY,DESPITE JOHN LENNON'S FAMOUS QUOTE!.

IMMACULATE VOCALS,GREAT BACKINGS WITH RCA's FAMOUS RECORDING QUALITY-THE STEREO SEPERATION AND ALL ROUND WARMTH IS MAGIC!.

THE TRACKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

MAKE ME KNOW IT

FEVER

THE GIRL OF MY BEST FRIEND

I WILL BE HOME AGAIN

DIRTY,DIRTY FEELING

THRILLS OF YOUR LOVE

SOLDIER BOY

SUCH A NIGHT

IT FEELS SO RIGHT

GIRL NEXT DOOR WENT A WALKING

LIKE A BABY

RECONSIDER BABY

FROM A RECENTLY PURCHASED COLLECTION OF MAINLY TOP QUALITY LPs OWNED FROM NEW BY A FORMER DECCA EMPLOYEE(RCA WERE PRESSED UP BY DECCA)WHO HARDLY USED HIS LPs AND STORED AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT IN A CUPBOARD FOR NEARLY 50 YEARS!

THERE ARE A FEW ULTRA MINOR/SEMI FAINT SURFACE COVER REMOVAL MARKS BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE OR AUDIBLE SIGNS OF USE-NOT EVEN ANY CLEANING WAS NECESSARY! AMAZING!!! 

AN ELVIS COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

I HAVE NOT FOUND SUCH BREATHTAKING QUALITY FOR AN ELVIS STEREO LP OF THIS VINTAGE FOR QUITE SOMETIME.THEY ARE SIMPLY NOT TURNING UP AS FREQUENTLY AS THEY DID,EVEN FIVE YEARS AGO.MOST HAVE NOW LEFT THE UK FOR THE COLLECTIONS OF JAPAN,AMERICA AND THE FAR EAST NEVER TO RETURN TO THE SELLING MARKET.

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A MUSICALLY BRILLIANT LP LIKE THIS ONE IN ALMOST AS NEW CONDITION!

NO CLEANING WAS NEEDED,THE SURFACES GLEAM,NO FINGERPRINTS,PATCHES OR BAD STORAGE ISSUES,NO WARPING,NO SCUFFS,NO SCRATCHES,NO FADING etc.

THERE ARE A FEW ULTRA FAINT"WISPY"COVER REMOVAL MARKS BUT THESE DO NOT SOUND.

PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTO OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABELS AND THE COVER!

NO WRITING,NO REPAIRS,NO RIPS,NO SPLITS,NO SPILLAGES,NO STAINS,HARDLY ANY LAMINATION PEELING,JUST A FEW EDGE,CORNER CREASES.

THE BACK EDGE NEEDS GLUING DOWN.

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE ELVIS/POP FAN OF THE EARLY 1960s.AN LP WAS USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

THOSE THAT DID BUY THEM WERE OFTEN SCARED OF HAVING THEM STOLEN OR BORROWED WITHOUT RETURN AND WOULD WRITE NAMES ON THE COVER-JUST COMPARE WITH ANY OTHER SIMILAR LPs ON EBAY.THE MAJORITY HAVE WRITING,SELLOTAPE REPAIR OR WORSE STILL DRAWINGS AND DOODLES ADDED.

THIS IS ABOUT THE BEST I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS AND YEARS.

CHECK OUT YOUR COPY-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE GOT AND WILL YOU REGRET IT LATER?

IF NOTHING ELSE THIS IS A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

I AM SURE TO REGRET NOT KEEPING IT BUT THAT'S LIFE!

THE HOUSE IS FULL AS IT IS! 

THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A HI-FI BUFF AND BEING AN ENGINEER AT DECCA HAD THE BENEFIT OF GETTING THE BEST AND INDEED IT IS HIGHLY PROBABLE THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF THIS RECORD TO APPEAR ON EBAY FOR YEARS DIRECT FROM SOMEONE WHO WAS IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THIS IS GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

A VERY NICE THICK PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE IS IN  EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER ,EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!/NO DISTORTION!

A COPY THAT HAS BEEN PLAYED ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES,POSSIBLY AS FEW AS 4-5 HAVING SPOKEN AT LENGTH TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER,SELLING DUE TO DOWNSIZING AND A HOUSE MOVE!!!!

Just how many were preserved like this one FROM A RELIABLE INDUSTRY SOURCE ??!!!!!!  

The STEREO mixes are Superb and full of bass, with a natural warmth from those VERY EARLY STEREO LP days OF AROUND 50 YEARS AGO!

In 1960, many were using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

The early STEREO 1960s equipment was quite often a bit basic and it was suggested to play LPs at between 5 and 8 grammes, which of course after a few plays would produce on later plays that nasty"film of fizzy distortion"so often IGNORED by sellers and in MY LISTENING GRADING is ALWAYS LISTENED OUT FOR WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON AND PLAYED TWICE TO ENSURE THE BEST AND MOST ACURATE GRADING!!!! 

 To find immaculate copies all these years later is getting almost impossible!FACT!

THEY ARE SIMPLY DRYING UP! 

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear ELVIS and always will be!  

GREAT WIDE RANGE SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

There is NO spindle wear.  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues,inferior USA issues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS IF YOU HAVE ONE AT ALL AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

ORIGINAL SUPER RARE STEREOPHONIC INNER SLEEVE!!  

THE LP ITSELF AS USUAL WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS! 

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!

HARDLY ANY STEREO ROCK AND ROLL LPs OF THIS VINTAGE SELL FOR LESS AND I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW GOOD THEY ARE.DO NOT BE SURPRISED IF THERE IS FRANTIC BIDDING AT THE LAST MINUTE.

DON'T LEAVE IT AND REGRET IT LATER!!!!!!!!!!!THIS MAY NOT BE REPEATED FOR A LONG TIME!
