jacket notes james hamilton (1 Ergebnisse)

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Illustrations: Dave Willardson (illustrator). Not a book but a two-record set of 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm stereo vinyl LPs, Chess 2CH 60023, near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus gatefold cardboard jacket (which has been neatly clipped to bottom corner) listing Chuck's 1955-1966 Chess Records discography to centerfold. (Record describes itself to jacket as "stereo," though as some of these cuts are apparently original recordings from 1957-58 we have our doubts that they were all originally RECORDED in stereo.) Disc labels state "all selections are written by Chuck Berry" but jacket rear panel more correctly states all selections by Chuck Berry EXCEPT five selections including "Driftin' Blues" (Charles Brown, Moore, Williams), "Down the Road Apiece" (Raye), "Merry Christmas Baby" (Baxter, Moore), etc. A few of these 24 cuts are a bit obscure ("Run Rudolph Run"? "Jaguar and the Thunderbird"?) but these discs do offer "Carol," "You Never Can Tell," "Sweet Little Rock and Roller," "Little Queenie," etc. Reduced from $18.
