Description

This is a rare original MONO pressing of the excellent ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK LP by BILL HALEY AND HIS COMETS on Decca Records (DL-8225) from 1955.  An absolutely essential early rock 'n' roll album from this legendary artist.  The vinyl is in VG- condition with lots of light visible surface marks and wear and some audible surface noise (light crackle); not for the most demanding audiophiles, but an enjoyable copy without skip or other anomalies that sounds better than it looks thanks to a quality pressing.  The cover is in VG+ condition with a few minor scuffs, dings, and original retail store sticker along the bottom edge of the back side, as pictured.  Don't pass this one up!
