Description

THE SENSATIONS – “LET ME IN / MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC”
Label: Argo Records – LP-4022
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Mono
Country: USA
Released: 1962
Genre: Soul, Doo-Wop, R&B
Style: Vocal Group Harmony 💿 DESCRIPTION Authentic 1962 Argo gray-label first pressing with deep groove and matching etched matrix numbers. Excellent example of this rare early soul LP, housed in its original laminated jacket. Later pressings on black label (post-1964) are far more common — the gray label is significantly rarer and highly sought after in this clean condition.
Original 1962 first U.S. mono pressing on Argo (Chess subsidiary). Classic Philadelphia vocal group featuring Yvonne Baker, produced by Kae Williams. Includes their hit singles “Let Me In” and “Music, Music, Music” — both strong examples of early 60s crossover soul-doo-wop excellence. 💎 CONDITION VINYL: VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) COVER: EXCELLENT (EX)
bright and clean front cover, vivid color photo with minimal corner wear, light age toning along edges, no seam splits. 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS
