Description

Here's a super rare
1955
1st Press
BILL HALEY
'Rock around the clock' LP,
Decca DL-8225.
This is Bill's first full length LP and has his best hits, 50's rockabilly at it's finest!!  Bill was at the start of it all.. He is a rock and roll pioneer!!  He was right alongside Elvis, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Burnette.  At the time, Bill was the equivalent of the Rolling Stones and Elvis was The Beatles!!  The youth were all over it.  Almost a decade needed to pass before the Beatles and Stones even came around.
This album is in excellent condition.  The cover only has a 3.5" crease on top right corner which barely noticeable on the back.  The edges and spine are very solid, just very slight wear to the corners, no splits
.  I rate it EX+.  The vinyl played really nice,  I would say VG++/EX-.  Comes with original sleeve which is a rarity!  Most of these LP's got played out and trashed, the trick is to find one at least as nice as this one which is very difficult.
I pack very well using double box (take vinyl out
of cover
), describe items accurately and usually ship within 5 business days.  Please leave me a good positive comment so that I know everything is fine, I will reciprocate.
