Description

WELCOME AGAIN TO MY CONTINUING RECORD COLLECTION CLEAROUT.

I STILL HAVE HUNDREDS OF RECORDS TO SELL OVER THE COMING MONTHS COVERING MANY STYLES FROM ABBA TO ZZ TOP.

I HAVE A FEW ODD 78s TO SHIFT INCLUDING SOME ELVIS ONES AND A FEW OTHERS.

THESE WILL START AT 99p. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT DUE TO THE FACT THAT THESE RECORDS ARE VERY FRAGILE THEY WILL NEED TO BE PACKED VERY WELL, HENCE THE POSTAGE PRICE WHICH INCLUDES PACKING MATERIALS THAT I HAVE TO PURCHASE ESPECIALLY TO SEND THESE. I AM NOT HERE TO MAKE MONEY ON POSTAGE COSTS. POSTAGE DISCOUNTS FOR MORE THAN ONE RECORD PURCHASED.

ALL OF THESE HAVE BEEN PLAYED ON A LENCO GOLDRING DECK AND I WILL REPORT BELOW ON SOUND QUALITY AS THESE OFTEN PLAY BETTER THAN THEY LOOK. AS ALWAYS, I OFFER A FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH ANY ITEM.

THESE WILL BE LISTED ONE TIME ONLY SO, IF YOU SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE, PLEASE MAKE A BID AND DON'T MISS OUT. ANY NOT SOLD WILL GO TO THE LOCAL CHARITY SHOPS.

IF YOU REQUIRE MORE INFORMATION FOR A PARTICULAR ITEM PLEASE E MAIL ME. THANKS.

HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAD PREVIOUSLY LISTED THIS ITEM BUT WAS UNHAPPY WITH THE DESCRIPTION SO PULLED THE LISTING. HERE IS THE REVISED VERSION

TITLE: TALLAHASSEE LASSIE/YOU KNOW

ARTIST: FREDDIE CANNON

YEAR: 1959

CAT NO: JAR 135

ADDITIONAL INFO: RECORD HAS SURFACE MARKS/SCUFFS AND SOME OBVIOUS SCRATCHES. PLAYS THROUGH OK ON BOTH SIDES. NO SKIPS/JUMPS. A FEW SCRATCHES CAN BE HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND NOW AND AGAIN ON THE 'A' SIDE BUT THE MUSIC PRETTY MUCH OVERPOWERS MOST OF THEM. THERE IS A LITTLE MORE NOTICABLE BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE 'B' SIDE AS IT A PARTICULARLY 'LOW-FI' RECORDING BUT NOTHING TOO DRASTIC. THE RECORD ITSELF IS A VERY EARLY VINYL PRESSING AND NOT THE USUAL SHELLAC. VERY HARD TO FIND THIS AS A 78RPM PRESSING.

I'M NOT GOING TO ATTEMPT TO GIVE THIS A GRADE AS THERE WILL ALWAYS BE SOMEBODY WHO DISAGREES WITH ME. SUFFICE TO SAY IT HAS DEFECTS ALTHOUGH NOTHING TOO BAD, IT PLAYS THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITH NO SKIPS OR JUMPS AND IT'S VERY RARE.
