Description
ORIGINAL 1957 U.K. LONDON AMERICAN (RE-S 1089) TRI - CENTRE E.P. BY ROY ORBISON TITLED "HILLBILLY ROCK".
THE TRACKS ARE:-
SIDE ONE - "YOU'RE MY BABY" / "ROCKHOUSE"
SIDE TWO - "OOBY DOOBY" / "GO! GO! GO!"
THIS IS A FIRST PRESS (MATRICES -1C, -1C) ORIGINAL U.K. ISSUE OF ROY ORBISON'S EARLY SUN ROCKABILLY NUMBERS. THIS IS THE ONLY SUCH COPY WE HAVE EVER SEEN, EVERY TRACK IS JUST GREAT, AND, IN IT'S WAY, THIS MUST RANK AS A PIECE OF EARLY ROCK 'N' ROLL HISTORY.
THE GLOSSY FULLY LAMINATED COVER IS COMPLETE, SHARP, AND HAS NO TEARS, TAPING OR EXTERIOR WRITING (THERE IS A SMALL NEAT DATE - "23RD NOV 1957" WRITTEN INSIDE THE COVER - ALL PART OF IT'S HISTORY). THERE IS SOME AGE DARKENING, LIGHT RING WEAR FRONT AND BACK, AND OVERALL IT IS GRADED NEAR EXCELLENT. IT BEARS THE DATE CODE "CP.57.7" ON THE REAR BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. OVERALL VERY PRESENTABLE FOR SUCH A RARITY WE FEEL.
BOTH LABELS ARE "CLEAN" AND GRADED VERY NEAR EXCELLENT. THE SHINY VINYL IS VISUALLY GRADED VERY GOOD (PLUS) BOTH SIDES AND PLAYS VERY WELL ALBEIT WITH SOME OCCASIONAL LIGHT SURFACE NOISE (IN BETWEEN TRACKS) - STILL VERY LISTENABLE.
WE ARE SURE YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED AND ALWAYS OFFER A FULL REFUND, EXCLUDING RETURN POSTAGE. PACKING FOR POSTAGE WILL BE TO A HIGH STANDARD AND WE WOULD RECOMMEND USING AN INSURED SERVICE DUE TO THE VALUE OF THE ITEM.
