"LET'S ROCK (Rock And Roll Our Blues Away)" b/w I'M NOT CRAZY (I'm Just In Love)  

MEGA-RARE CACTUS CA-45-118, CHICAGO LABEL INDIE 2-SIDED MONSTER GUITAR ROCKER

THIS IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST 2-SIDER ROCKABILLY RECORDS EVER OUT OF THE MIDWEST, WITH MULTIPLE GUITAR BREAKS AND HOT PIANO BACKING ON 2 SIDES OF CLASSIC MEMPHIS/GENE VINCENT-INFLUENCED ROCK 'N ROLL! WHOEVER THIS GUITAR PLAYER WAS, HE'S A BARN-BURNIN' GENIUS!

THIS COPY IS OVERALL A SHINY BEAUTY EXCEPT FOR ONE UGLY LITTLE DEFECT AND A FEW SCUFFS: THERE IS A FINGERNAIL GOUGE OR SOME OTHER TYPE OF SCUFF THAT LOOKS ALMOST LIKE A SORT OF SURFACE 'CHIP' RIGHT AT THE END OF 'LET'S ROCK' AND A COUPLE OF SMALL CROSS-GROOVE MARKS ON 'I'M NOT CRAZY'. I HAVE PLAYED THIS ON MY HIGH-TECH TECHNIC'S TURNTABLE AT 1-GRAM AND IT SKIPS AT THOSE SPOTS. HOWEVER, I PLAYED IT SEVERAL TIMES ON MY TRUSTY 1960'S COLUMBIA FLIP-TOP 16-33-45-78 RECORD PLAYER WHICH HAS A LIGHTWEIGHT METAL OLD SCHOOL FLIP-CARTRIDGE TONE ARM AND IT NOT ONLY PLAYS FINE EVEN THE NASTY LITTLE GOUGE ONLY PRODUCED SEVERAL LIGHT TICKS AS IT PASSED AT THE END OF THE SIDE. 'I'M NOT CRAZY' DOESN'T EVEN REGISTER A TICK.  SO I'D SAY AUDIOPHILES WITH SUPER AUDIO GEAR BEWARE AND OLD-SCHOOL HI-FI GUYS JUMP ON IN.

THIS SINGLE IS A MUST-HAVE FOR ANY SERIOUS ROCKABILLY COLLECTION, AND GENERALLY A BIG-TICKET COLLECTIBLE.  AT WORST THIS IS A GOOD LOOKING SLOT FILLER COPY AND AT BEST ON THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT IT'S A GOOD PLAYER COPY THAT IN GENERAL LOOKS GREAT. STILL, SINCE IT HAS THIS SORT OF PLAYER UNPREDICTABILITY DEPENDING ON EQUIPMENT I AM SELLING THIS STRICTLY AS-IS.  

CONDITION:

• LABELS ARE BOTH NICE AND CLEAN, NO WRITING, NO STICKERS
• A-SIDE HAS NEARLY FULL GLOSS WITH SOME SUPERFICIAL SLEEVE MARKS AND ONE NASTY LITTLE GOUGE AT THE VERY END OF THE SIDE
• B-SIDE STILL SHINES WITH SHORT SUPERFICIAL SCUFFS AND HAIRLINES, WITH A FEW SMALL SCRATCHES
• SEE THE DESCRIPTION ABOVE. SOLD AS-IS

MEGA-RARE US ORIGINAL ROCKABILLY 2-SIDER!

LOOKS NICE OVERALL & PLAYS WITH ISSUES AS DESCRIBED, SOLD AS-IS
