THE ROLLING STONES, SELF TITLED DEBUT ALBUM, UK DECCA LP, 1964, EARLY MONO PRESS

The Rolling Stones – Debut Album

This is the debut album by The Rolling Stones, released by Decca Records in the UK on 16 April 1964. Recorded at Regent Sound Studios in London over the course of five days in January and February 1964, it was produced by then-managers Andrew Loog Oldham and Eric Easton.
Although this record has been well played and has a lot of marks it plays better than it looks. It’s an early mono pressing of The Rolling Stones debut album released on Decca Records in 1964. Although I have graded the vinyl as "good" it actually plays very well with only a few clicks here and there. There’s certainly nothing that spoils your enjoyment of the music, it still sounds great!

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM:
MINT: I very rarely use the mint grade. Only records that are still sealed or records that even under the strongest of lights are completely unmarked. Also covers that are unmarked/uncreased in any way and still look brand new.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is no 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, discoloration, 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.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler. Payment strictly by PayPal only. Postal discounts available for multiple purchases - Please email for details.  859 (GS 7.0.21 (859))
