Description
Here's an ORIGINAL 45 of Junior Thompson & The Meteors - Raw Deal / Mama's Little Baby. VERY SCARCE single on the legendary Meteor label, and one of the most scorching double-sided rockabilly discs you're bound to come across.
CONDITION: The record has many light scuffs, but no deep scratches that would affect tracking. Some light surface noise is audible, but this record is an absolute pleasure to listen to. There does not seem to be any excessive groove wear, at least not to my ear. This copy has held up surprisingly well over the years, and it still has a lot of play left in it! The labels have some minor wear (rubbing) as is shown in the photos.
Hear the audio sample to decide for yourself. I excerpted parts of both sides and am presenting it here as one combined file. NO CLEAN-UP has been done to the audio signal (i.e. no noise reduction, click/crackle removal, etc.) Only a basic fade-out at the end of each audio excerpt!
If you have any questions, please contact me before bidding. My aim is to describe the item as well as possible, but a return can be arranged if for some reason the winning bidder is unsatisfied. With this record, though, that shouldn't be a problem.
Last note: I am a record collector myself, and I will miss this record. I hope wherever it goes next, it goes to a good home.
