Memphis Slim

Travellin With The Blues

12" Vinyl LP

Storyville Records

Original UK Pressing

Catalogue Number : SLP 118

Mono

 

A nice Original UK 1st pressing of this rare 12" LP. 1964 Vinyl release of this Blues classic on the Storyville label, in Excellent condition.

Vinyl is in Excellent+/NM condition and looks like it has been played very few times. Despite having some imprint from the poly inner sleeve this vinyl still carries a beautiful sheen. I play graded it and there is not background hiss at all the record plays great with a deep and precise sound. The original labels are excellent and there is no surface wear, dirt, scuffs or warps.

The fully laminated flipback sleeve is graded Excellent/VG++. Laminate is excellent on the front and there are good colours. Bottom right of sleeve has a small rub/nic. Rear of sleeve is generally in excellent shape with no age discolouration.

A genuine and collectable CLASSIC BLUES LP 1st pressing from the UK and in great condition.

 

Please check my other auctions that I am listing for many more classic original UK and US Jazz and Blues records from a large and well looked after collection.

 

I have taken photographs and tried to describe the item condition to the best of my ability but please contact me with any further questions that you may have.

 

Records will be mailed in a strong corrugated cardboard cruciform style mailer.

 

I use the UK record collector grading guide as detailed below.

Records are visually graded unless stated as play graded

 

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:
 
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

 
As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
