(C45s)Way Down Yonder in New Orleans/ Fractured by Freddy Cannon
Label: Swan 4043 Year: 1960
Condition: M- $16.00

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy. On this, Cannon's second biggest hit (after "Palisades Park"), the company somehow managed to mis-spell the guy's first name on the 45 labels. Here, he's "Freddie" rather than "Freddy". Curiously, the picture sleeve that came with some copies of the release spelled the first name correctly. Note: These beautiful copies have Mint labels. The vinyl grades Near Mint to reflect faint signs of storage wear. The audio, as is typical for this vinyl pressing, is noisier than I'd like, falling near the bottom of the Near Mint range. Most of the time, no surface noise is audible; but it does appear during the quiet moments... not bad, but not flawless, as I'd hoped. (Honestly, after having handled numerous copies of this pressing over the years, I believe part of the problem is bad vinyl... I think this may be sub-standard grade wax. That problem affected various pressings and labels during the 1950s and 1960s, in particular; Philles is a problem label given the prevalence of poor-quality vinyl it used, for example.)
