Description
A REALY EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS MEGA RARE ROCKING 78 FROM SISTERS ANN AND LILLIAN STOREY
BAD MOTORCYLE
HAVE A LISTEN HERE - STOREY SISTERS-- BAD MOTORCYCLE 1958
The Storey Sisters aka The Twinkles (Philadelphia, Pa)
TWO gals from PA released this great rocker (firstly on Peak in 1957 as the Twinkles and then) on Cameo Parway in 1958. The? great Philly dj Jocko Henderson would use the term "bad motorcycle" as a complement if he liked something.
This great female rocker made number 45 in the US charts but never made it at all in the UK!!
it was the fore-runner to such great female hits such as "da doo ron ron" and "leader of the pack" but unlike those - this really rocks - with a fantastic guitar break and a driving rhythm.
Tracy Ullman also did a cover of this - but I haven't heard it to comment...

BID NOW!
NOTHING IN THIS WORLD IS FREE, BUT TO BE ABLE TO LIST THIS RECORD PROPERLY THE MIGHTY EBAY INSIST I OFFER "FREE" POSTAGE ON THIS ITEM TO LOCATIONS IN THE UK.
IN REALITY 1st CLASS POSTAGE IN THE UK COSTS £5, AIRMAIL SMALL PACKET POSTAGE TO EUROPE COSTS £8 AND POSTAGE TO ANYWHERE ELSE COSTS £12.
THAT MEANS THAT THE "PRICE" OF THIS RECORD ALREADY INCLUDES £4 WORTH OF POSTAL CHARGES (ON WHICH EBAY TAKE A PERCENTAGE CUT)!!
THIS IS A GREEDY AND RIDICULOUS MOVE ON EBAYS PART!! AND MEANS AS YOU START ORDERING SEVERAL RECORDS FROM ME THAT HAVE BEEN PRICED IN THIS WAY UK CUSTOMERS WILL BE PAYING FOR THE POSTAGE 2, 3 OR MORE TIMES OVER ..... THAT IS WHY MANY OF MY OTHER LISTINGS HAVE THE "FREIGHT" OPTION WHERE I CAN OFFER POSTAGE DISCOUNTS FROM THE START.
UNFORTUNATELY "FREIGHT" ITEMS HAVE NO EXPOSURE ON NON UK EBAY WEBSITES SO FOR CERTAIN RECORDS I AM FORCED TO GO DOWN THIS RIDICULOUS "FREE" POSTAGE ROUTE... SORRY!!
IF YOU, TOO, FEEL THIS IS SILLY PLEASE EMAIL EBAY AND PROTEST TO THEM.....
10" 78 RPM RECORDS NEED CAREFULLY PACKING, AND I CLAIM TO HAVE THE BEST PACKAGING IN THE WORLD FOR DISPATCHING THEM!!
THE GREG'S GREAT'S SYSTEM CONSISTS OF A SPECIALLY DESIGNED INNER BOX MADE OUT OF 1" THICK POLYSTYRENE, WHICH THEN GOES INSIDE A DOUBLE CORREGATED STIFF OUTER CARDBOARD CARTON. THE BOXES CAN TAKE UP TO 21 RECORDS,
USUALLY FOR MAILING OVERSEAS, I RECOMMEND NO MORE THAN 7 IN A BOX, OTHERWISE IT GOES OVER THE AIRMAIL SMALL PACKET MAXIMUM WEIGHT OF 2Kgs WHICH CAUSES A LARGE HIKE IN POSTAL RATES.
I SEND OUT ON AVERAGE ABOUT 30 PARCELS A WEEK AND DISPATCH IS NORMALLY DONE ONCE A WEEK - SO IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR RECORD WITHIN A WEEK IN THE UK, PLEASE DON'T BE TOO SURPRISED - YOU MAY HAVE JUST PAID FOR IT THE DAY AFTER I'VE DONE THE PARCEL RUN!! - ON THE OTHER HAND YOU MAY HAVE HIT IT LUCKY, AND GET THE PARCEL WITHIN A DAY OR TWO!!
IF YOU REALLY HAVE AN URGENT REQUIREMENT FOR THE RECORD - BIRTHDAY PRESENT, WEDDING, FUNERAL etc PLEASE TELL ME - (BECAUSE I CAN'T READ MINDS!) I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET IT OUT FOR YOU URGENTLY.
IF A RECORD ARRIVES CRACKED OR BROKEN DESPITE MY BEST EFFORTS WITH THIS FANTASTIC PACKAGING I WILL REFUND THE MONEY IN FULL. - JUST SEND ME A QUICK SCAN - IF IT IS A VERY RARE RECORD I MAY ASK YOU TO SEND IT BACK OTHERWISE IT WILL BE YOURS TO KEEP OR DISPOSE OF.
