FROM WIKIPEDIA :

Ann Richards (October 1, 1935 - April 1, 1982) was an American jazz singer. She was born Margaret Ann Borden on October 1, 1935 in San Diego, California. Richards, who began taking singing lessons at ten and was self-taught on the piano, appeared on the West Coast music scene in 1954. She had a short stint with Charlie Barnet's band, and was later brought to the attention of Stan Kenton by songwriter Eddie Beal. Richards was with Kenton's band for a few months in 1955, and the two were married.[1] The admiring Kenton helped her secure a contract with Capitol Records. She was paired with conductor Brian Farnon and arranger Warren Baker for her debut album, 1958's I'm Shooting High. A duet album with Kenton, Two Much, was released in 1961. Kenton and Richards had two children, Dana and Lance, but separated in 1961.[2] Richards created scandal when she posed for the June 1961 issue of Playboy, subsequently signing a contract with the low-end label Atco Records. The cover of her 1961 album Ann, Man! was taken from the shoot. Richards committed suicide on April 1, 1982 in Hollywood, California, dying at age 46 from a gunshot wound.[3]

I WILL BE OFFERING ALL KINDS OF GOODIES THIS YEAR.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO CHECK "OTHER AUCTIONS BY SELLER"!

MY GRADING SYSTEM IS : 
I work on the 10 point grading system (see below). 
There will be a blue number representing shape besides the listing/Year in blue.   (Ex: 1967  7/8)
All gradings are visual and I only play records in special situations
10 : MINT (still sealed (LP's only) or unplayed (shown by zero spindle wear).  PERFECT CONDITION!!!)
9 : NEAR MINT/M- (opened LP or slight handling wear.  ALMOST PERFECT BUT NOT...)
8 : Above VG / Below M- (Slight wear(ring/seam), slight paper scuffs that do not effect play and little to no spindle wear)
7 : VERY GOOD  (slight needle wear/slight scuffs/slight scratches/slight cover discoloration and or seam wear).  Small seam splits starting.  Some slight ticks that don't take away from the listening experience.
6 : Above G / Below VG (slight needle wear/mild scuffs/ mild scratches/ mild cover discoloration and or seam wear). 
Plays with slightly noticeable ticks but still enjoyable!!)
5 : GOOD (Needle wear/scuffs/scratches/cover discoloration and or seam wear). 
Plays with noticeable ticks but OK!!)
4 : Above POOR / Below G (OK LP.  Listed as a play copy until a clean one comes)
3: POOR (Seam splits/heavy writing on cover/scratched and scuffed ... BUT STILL PLAYS but sound like bacon sizzling)
2: Really trashed (Only listed if it is super super rare and can fill a void.  $500 record or more.  Could be cracked but plays.)
1: Hurts to look at (Should be thrown away or given to Goodwill.  "Used for target practice"/Original owner should be ashamed!!).
These records will not be sold.  They will be used for landfill.
