Description: Gorgeous copy of the rare original 1959 pressing Ritchie Valens' second LP, Ritchie, on Del-Fi mono DFLP-1206. Original first pressing blue labels. This copy is truly lovely. The disc has a few light scuffs and superficial marks but really not bad at all. It plays near flawlessly, with maybe a moment or two of light crackle, but barely. Really a beautiful sounding copy. The cover is nice with a bit of wear, mainly a seam split at the top edge about halfway across, and a little section at the top of the back cover where the top layer of the cardboard has been cut, but not all the way through. Just the surface. Ghe corners are quite worn at the spine, but are still holding. A bit of light general shelfwear as well, but really overall this cover is pretty nice. Most early copies are way more worn than this. Truly this is a gorgeous original copy that sounds wonderful, hard for me to part with, and hard to top.
