ORIGINAL MINT BROOKLYN DOO WOP  (VOCAL GROUP HARMONY) 45 - FASCINATIONS - Since You Went Away b/w I'm Gonna Cryy.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY     WE URGE YOU TO COMPARE OUR PRICE WITH ANY OTHERS SELLING THIS RECORD BEFORE SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY.     MY HUSBAND, WORKING WITH AL BROWNE, PRODUCED THIS 45 IN 1972. BOTH SIDES WERE RECORDED IN 1959 AND WERE UNRELEASED UNTIL THIS PRESSING.   WHO WERE THE FASCINATIONS?  THE ANSWER IS THAT NO ONE KNOWS. THE BOX CONTAINING THE MASTERS FOR THE RECORD DID NOT IDENTIFY THE GROUP AND ALL AL BROWNE REMEMBERED WAS THAT THEY WERE A RACIALLY MIXED GROUP. WHEN MY HUSBAND PRESSED THE RECORD, HE GAVE THEM THE NAME "FASCINATIONS." THEY HAVE NO CONNECTION TO ANY OTHER GROUP  USING THAT NAME.
BOTH SIDES ARE PURE BROOKLYN STREET- CORNER RECORDINGS. IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THEM, YOU CAM LISTEN TO THEM ON YOUTUBE.
  THE RECORD BOOKS (IN THE LAST EDITION OF KREITER'S PRICE GUIDE) FOR $40; THAT MAKES IT ONE OF THE HIGHEST VALUED COLLECTOR PRODUCED RECORDS FROM THAT TIME PERIOD. WE HAVE SOLD A COPY FOR AS MUCH AS $90 AND ONE MAJOR DEALER HAD IT PRICED AT $150.   THE RECORD IS IN MINT CONDITION; NEVER PLAYED.
