78 rpm: Elvis Presley The Truth About Me Gold Flexi Disc US 1956 78 rpm Rainbo Vinyl

TITLE: THE TRUTH ABOUT ME

ARTIST: ELVIS PRESLEY

CATALOGUE: RAINBO RECORDS

ORIGINAL US IMPORT RAINBO GOLD 6 3/4" FLEXI DISC. THIS 78rpm INTERVIEW DISC WAS ISSUED FREE WITH THE US MAGAZINE 'ELVIS ANSWERS BACK'. THE MAGAZINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE.

VINYL: GOOD / VERY GOOD - THE FLEXI IS STILL ATTACHED AT THE CENTRE AREA TO THE ORIGINAL CARD BACKING ISSUED IN 1956. THERE IS SLIGHT RISING AT THE SIDES BUT WHEN THE NEEDLE OF YOUR 78 PLAYER TOUCHES DOWN ON IT THE RAISED AREA DOES FLATTEN DOWN. THERE IS A SLIGHT CREASE IN ONE AREA OF THE GROOVES BUT THIS DID NOT ON MY PLAYER GENERATE ANY DISTORTION IN SOUND. A LITTLE AGEING CAN BE SEEN TO THE PLAYING SIDE TOO BUT THE GOLD COLOURING IS STILL CLEAR AND VIVID. GIVEN THE NATURE OF THIS FLEXI THOUGH THE SOUND QUALITY IS OBVIOUSLY NEVER GOING TO BE AS GOOD AS A STANDARD VINYL DISC - BUT THERE'S NOTHING AUDIBLY THAT RUINS OR DEEMS THE FLEXI UN-LISTENABLE.
