JIMMY DALEY AND THE DING-A-LINGS Rock, Pretty Baby (Extremely
rare 1957 UK 7" vinyl single with intact original triangular centre, also
including Can I Steal A Little Love, Brunswick company die cut paper
sleeve. Both songs were taken from thefilm 'Rock Pretty Baby' that
was released the previous year. As a slice of rare Rock & Roll, it holds
its own against its peers, owing perhaps more to Gene Vincent than
Elvis. Condition wise, this copy doesn't look pretty and shows many
surface scuffs, so we ended up having to playtest both sides. During
play, there are no annoying clicks and background noise was
surprisingly kept at a minimum, certainly nothing that would greatly
spoil enjoyment. Visually, you would think G/G+, but this actually
plays to a nice VG level. Fifties vinyl was obviously tough enough to
stand up to a Rock 'n' Roll lifestyle!)
