DANCE TO THE BOP

********************************************************* 

 IN 1958 THE MAJORITY BOUGHT SINGLES,NOT BEING ABLE TO AFFORD THE MORE EXPENSIVE EPs WITH HARDLY ANY COPIES SURVIVING IN 2010, 52 YEARS LATER IN PLAYABLE CONDITION!

THIS ONE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME MOSTLY VISUAL SURFACE MARKS,SOME MINOR CLICKS,BUT NO DEEP MARKS AND NOT MUCH SURFACE NOISE AND IT HAS IT'S ORIGINAL PICTURE COVER.

 CAPITOL EAP1 985 

REALLY NICE LABELS WITH JUST FAINT INITIALS ON ONE OF THE PUSH OUT CENTRE. 

DECENT PRINT! PUSH OUT CENTRE INTACT! 

HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR!

APART FROM SOME SLIGHT SURFACE CRACKLE AND MINOR CLICKS ON ONE TRACK**,IT PLAYS VERY NICELY WITH NO JUMPS OR STICKS WHICH ARE SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH THESE DELICATE AND 52 YEAR OLD ITEMS.   

GENERALLY THE SOUND IS VERY CLEAR AND THE ACTUAL SURFACE NOISE IS MINIMAL TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE AGE AND THE FACT THAT MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE UNPLAYABLE OR IF THEY ARE DO NOT GIVE A DECENT SOUND.

THOSE OF YOU LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE A MONO SWITCH,WOULD PROBABLY FIND THAT"TOP END"MINOR "FIZZ"WOULD BE"LOST". 

THE VINYL IS FLAT,NO WARPS OR DENTS! 

THE VERY EARLIEST PRESSING!

NO OTHER PRESSING EXISTS BEFORE THIS ONE!

ONE OF THE VERY FIRST OFF THE UK PRINT RUN!!!!  

THE PICTURE COVER HAS SOME CREASES,A 2CM RIGHT EDGE TEAR AND IS VERY CLEAN AND BRIGHT, WITH JUST MINOR ULTRA FAINT AND TINY CATALOGUE NUMBER WRITING AT THE BACK LEFT EDGE BUT NO REPAIRS OR MAJOR STAINING!!!!

NOT A NASTY REPRO LIKE SO MANY AROUND!!!

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A VERY RARE EP-

THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!

AN EARLY 1ST EDITION WHICH WAS VERY LIMITED AND RARE TO FIND  52 YEARS ON AND AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANY GENE VINCENT COLLECTION!

IT IS MUCH, MUCH HARDER TO FIND THAN OTHER EPs OF THE ERA, WHICH  SOLD BETTER.  

IN 1958,SO OFTEN THE EQUIPMENT USED WOULD RUIN ANY DELICATE 45 RPM EP DISC WITHIN JUST A COUPLE OF PLAYS!!!

EVEN 78 RPM NEEDLES WERE SOMETIMES USED! 

ON AN OLDER DECK OR THE USE OF A MONO FILTER SWITCH WOULD PROBABLY MAKE AN EVEN BIGGER DIFFERENCE!

MINT COPIES TEND TO FETCH AROUND £75 SO A £15 START FOR A STRICTLY GRADED VERY GOOD CONDITION COPY IS WELL WORTH GOING FOR!

DON'T FORGET THE SOUND OF THIS RECORD IS TESTED WITH STRICT GRADING IN MIND!!

JUST COMPARE WITH OTHER COPIES ADVERTISED,TOTALLY WRECKED, EVEN STATEMENTS ADMITTING MAJOR JUMPS AND NASTY DEEP CLICKS-SUCH COPIES ARE OF NO INTEREST TO SERIOUS COLLECTORS AND ACT AS MERE"BETTER THAN  NOTHING"GAP FILLERS!

MAKE NO MISTAKE,THIS IS A VERY GOOD CONDITION EXAMPLE AND BEARING IN MIND IT'S SCARCITY IS FAR,FAR BETTER THAN MOST COPIES AND COVERS THAT YOU WILL SEE IN 2010! 

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME! FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED DEALER,  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE ESPECIALLY REGARDING THE 1950s AND 1960s!!!           

Copies of this EP were being sold in tiny quantities and so how many survive IN PLAYABLE CONDITION??!!!!!!

MOST THAT TURN UP ARE TOTALLY WRECKED. 

THIS ONE COULD WELL BE IN THE VERY FIRST FEW WEEKS OF ISSUE! 

In those early days with LIMITED exposure on Radio and TV, POP EPs were carefully considered and saved for items,many fans not getting THE TRACKS until they were reissued on LPs much later.  

 Vinyl is still the best way to hear GENE VINCENT and always will be!  

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TWICE TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

There is HARDLY ANY spindle wear!!!

EVERY COPY I HAVE SEEN HAS HAD SOME BUT THESE LABELS ARE QUITE STUNNING!!!!!! 

Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of major faults. 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "VERY GOOD"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTO!
