Shake, Rattle and Roll/ You Know I Love You

Here's another item off my personal bucket list... a beautiful original pressing of this great 1954 hit for Joe Turner "and his Blues Kings." Note that Dave Marsh ranks this one way up on his list of the 1001 greatest singles ever made, and it deserves every single digit of that rating. Rolling Stone ranks it highly in its list as well. By the way, Atlantic didn't get around to putting this on an LP until 1957... 3 years later, so this counts as a non-album single. Note: This copy comes in a vintage Atlantic Records factory sleeve. It has beautiful, Near Mint labels (see scan). The vinyl looks strong EX to me, with some light scuffing and tiny scratches, and the audio grades likewise with enough surface noise to keep it from a Near Mint grade. Altogether highly enjoyable!
