Description

PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.


OFF-THE-CHARTS RARE two-sided 45 rpm 7" metal acetate from Ral's very first studio recording at MBS Recording Studio on South Wabash Avenue right here in Chicago (Ral being a Windy City native) on January 3, 1958 with the legendary cover of Little Richard's Miss Anne on one side and a dynamite, smokin' cover of Buddy Holly's Oh Boy on the reverse, both credited to Ralph Donner & his Rockin' Five!!!  This acetate was included in a jaw-dropping collection I purchased from a music industry veteran and is in amazing VG+/VG++ condition with NO writing on the labels and the artist and title text hand-typed.  You've seen Miss Anne on Kicksville's compilation of hideously rare "Raw Rockabilly Acetates Volume 3" but I can't find any record of the original MBS acetate ever coming up for sale or auction.   Now's your chance to own it so don't sleep rockabilly collectors.   This is most certainly a once in a lifetime opportunity.  I've been collecting rockabilly for 40+ yeas and anyone that follows my auctions knows I own some 45s to die for but this acetate is unquestioningly one of the crown jewels in my collection.  This is what separates elite collectors from the novices,  


NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
