  FRANKIE LYMON 

and THE TEENAGERS 

 1957 UK ISSUE EP!

THE LESS COMMON SECOND EP! 

Here is  a chance to own  a 1957 UK EP on the COLUMBIA Label.

THIS IS A FIRST PRESSING WITH THE PUSH OUT CENTRE FULLY INTACT. 

THIS COPY HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS! 

DON'T FORGET EPs WERE AROUND TWICE THE PRICE OF SINGLES AND SO IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A CASUAL PURCHASE TO MOST RECORD BUYERS IN 1957 WITH ALL THE DISTRACTIONS OF CHEAPER SINGLES TO CHOOSE FROM.

I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS EP FOR MANY YEARS AND I DON'T RECALL EVER SEEING AS GOOD A COPY BEFORE! 

THE EXPOSURE FOR THIS EP WOULD HAVE BEEN MINIMAL AND IN SOME CASES RECORD SHOPS WOULD ONLY STOCK A COUPLE OF COPIES OR EVEN ONLY GET IT TO ORDER.

VINYL  EQUIPMENT HAD ONLY BEEN AROUND FOR  ABOUT 5 YEARS AND WAS VERY EXPENSIVE WITH THE MAJORITY OF BUYERS ONLY OPTING FOR BREAKABLE 78s AS THEIR PURCHASE CHOICES!

THE PRINT RUN FOR AN EP WOULD PROBABLY BE A FEW THOUSAND AND THOSE THAT WERE SOLD SOMETIMES WERE RUINED WITH HEAVY PICKUPS AND EVEN SOMETIMES WITH 78rpm NEEDLES!.

I WOULD ESTIMATE ONLY A FEW DOZEN EXIST AS GOOD AS THIS AND WHEN DID YOU EVER  SEE THIS ON EBAY?? YOU SEE THE FIRST ONE BUT I AM CONFIDENT THIS IS THE ONLY ONE ON EBAY FOR MONTHS! 

MUSICALLY A GROUP WHOSE STYLE WAS COPIED BY MANY BOY AND GIRL GROUPS, LYMON BEING ONE OF THE FIRST CASUALTIES OF THE ERA, HE DIED OF DRUG ABUSE AGED JUST 26 IN 1968.

THIS IS A LOVELY SOUVENIR OF THE ROCK AND ROLL ERA AND A MUST HAVE FOR ANY EP COLLECTOR! 

IT IS IN VERY NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH A VERY QUIET SURFACE. THERE ARE NOT EVEN THE SLIGHTEST OF COVER REMOVAL MARKS AND IT STILL RETAINS IT'S ORIGINAL PVC BAG.

CATALOGUE NUMBER :SEG 7734

TRACKS:GOODY GOODY/BABY BABY/CREATION OF LOVE and MIRACLE IN THE RAIN.

Housed in an ORIGINAL picture cover.There is very slight ring wear and a tiny lamination peeling at the lead in edge otherwise it is in super order!

NO WRITING/RIPS/REPAIRS/SELLOTAPE ETC ETC.

ONE OF THE BEST COPIES I HAVE EVER SEEN!
