Here's a beautiful copy of this 1955 double-sided smash. I'm particularly fond of the Haley-penned B side rocker ("Rock-A-Beatin' Boogie"), though "Candle" is pretty catchy itself. Note: This copy comes in a vintage Decca Records factory sleeve. The labels are Mint with a small numbered sticker on the "Candle" side. The vinyl looks almost untouched. I'm tempted to grade the audio pristine Mint, because it's very close on both sides; Near Mint is conservative.
