Description
About This Record. See My Other RARE LPs (like Link Wray) for Sale! Sorry about my high starting price, but I paid lots for this and I hate to see it go . . . especially after hearing Dale's primal screams on some of the songs. This and Johnny Burnette and Link Wray are some of the best rockers from the late 1950's that just never turn up.
This is a first press original USA copy of Dale Hawkins LP released on Chess Records LP 1429 way back when in 1958 or thereabouts. Nice enough cover and vinyl. Please see the details below about the cover, vinyl, labels and everything else you might want to know.
PLEASE CHECK my Feedback which will show you my grading, Cover/Vinyl, of other LPs I have recently sold and what the lucky people who bought them think of them and our experience. The photos of the labels or cover list the songs and any possible details about the labels.
I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA and foreign buyers in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase). Comes cleaned on my KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaner and placed in a new dust-free sleeve for your grandchildren. And at least one plastic sleeves for moisture protection (for you and me).
Cover Condition: STRONG!!!!! Very Good (VG). Three (3) inch seam split on top seam from opening edge towards middle. Just light cover wear; no writing or stickers. 3 mild corner dings. Very nice as these things go. Would be Strong VG+ or EX- but for the top seam split. STILL NICE!! Please see all my Photos. I didn't take them for fun and frolic.
Vinyl Condition: Very Good (VG). Keeper copy as these things go. Looks more Very Good (VG) But Plays mostly EX or EX- but a few marks that make a few pops and there are some Very Good (VG) moments in a couple of songs; mainly there are some clicks and pops in Track B5 that has the Tarzan like screams at the beginning and end. Pretty quiet between tracks, but obvious paper marks and some light scuffs (no serious issues). NO major issues.
Labels. Near Mint (NM) labels. Please see photos of all labels.
Inserts: The LP comes cleaned on my KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Machine and in a new rice paper sleeve equivalent.
Packaging. I clean all vinyl on my KL Audio Ultrasonic Record Cleaning Machine and place it in a new innersleeve so the old dust does not reattach; but I also include the innersleeve that came with the LP if it is the original. I separate the vinyl in its new sleeve after cleaning from the cover, and place the cover and the separately packed vinyl in at least one if not two plastic innersleeves that help protect against moisture damage during this cool records transition to your record collection. I use sturdy carboard containers with real corners and pack with at least two insert stiffeners, and I place neon stickers on the front and back of the package indicating “Do Not Bend” and/or “Fragile” or something like that to help facilitate a safe passage.
Shipping and Payment. PayPal only. I ship promptly worldwide; sometimes the automatic eBay invoice does not have accurate shipping if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. . . . I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways, unless you live outside North America in which case I will refund you shipping one way unless I made a mistake which I sometimes do because I am only human.. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS: Please add sales tax!
