Description
HARRY JAMES AND HIS ORCHESTRA (VOCAL CHORUS FRANK SINATRA) "FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART" B/W "MELANCHOLY MOOD" BRUNSWICK 8443 "VG-".
BOTH SIDES ARE RATHER DULL AND DIRTY IN APPEARANCE WITH NUMEROUS LIGHT SCRATCHES PLUS A FEW BELOW-SURFACE SCRATCHES. HOWEVER, THE SOUND QUALITY IS QUITE PLEASANT FOR A 66-YEAR-OLD RECORD. BOTH SIDES PLAY THROUGH WITHOUT SKIPS OR STICKS. THERE ARE NO WARPS, CRACKS OR CHIPS. THE SCANS GIVE FAIRLY ACCURATE PICTURES OF THE LABELS.
AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, THIS IS FRANK SINATRA'S FIRST RECORD AND THE ONLY ONE ON THE BRUNSWICK LABEL. HARRY & FRANK MADE A LOT OF RECORDS TOGETHER AND SEPARATELY ON COLUMBIA THROUGHOUT THE 1940's, BUT THIS IS WHERE "OL' BLUE EYES" DEBUTED ON A MAJOR LABEL.
THIS IS AN HISTORIC RECORDING BY (ARGUABLY) THE MOST IMPORTANT SINGER OF THE 20TH CENTURY OR PERHAPS ALL TIME. I'M NOT OFFERING THIS COLLECTOR'S ITEM AT A LOW-BALL BID WITH A SKY-HIGH RESERVE. THIS TIME THE BIDDING STARTS AT MY LOWEST ACCEPTABLE PRICE. IF IT DOESN'T SELL, I WOULDN'T MIND KEEPING THIS IN MY FAMILY, SINCE WE ARE ALL BIG "CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD" FANS.
AS ALWAYS, SATISFACTION IS GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK. CHECK MY FEEDBACK PROFILE AND BUY WITH CONFIDENCE.
SHIPPING & HANDLING FEE IS $5.00 WITHIN THE USA INCLUDING MANDATORY INSURANCE ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM. INSURANCE MAY BE VERY COSTLY OUTSIDE THE USA. FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT chartson@earthlink.net
