GENE VINCENT Gene Vincent & The Blue Caps (Incredibly rare 1957 first UK issue 12-track mono LP on the Capitol turquoise label, featuring Gene cranking out wild & raw, no nonsense rock n' roll like no one's business, including an occasional standout ballad like Unchained Melody, what a record! We have never been able to track down original Gene Vincent albums. Here is our first turquioise label example of this classic album with the original sleeve, fully laminated with scalloped flipbacks of the era. The laminate is nice & clean & the colours are beautiful & strikingly vivid. This is a one owner copy. The flipbacks are secure & the front panel appears as good as you will ever find it. There is some faint corner scuffing, not unreasonable, with all text clearly legible including along the pinched spine. The laminate has started to naturally peel away at a few edges, mostly just from the back opening. Nearly sixty years of age & still a beaut, there is a lovely deep sheen both sides of the vinyl. We have professionally cleaned the record & it grades Excellent with minimal sign of play. Highest recommendation T811)
