Please check my other auctions for great deals on VINYL RECORDS... I have a bunch  coming up in the next few days !

I have obtained somewhere in the ballpark ( it was incredibly difficult to count - this number is an estimation) of 4120 LPs from the 50s - 70s. Most of them ( probably around 75%) are country, bluegrass, and rockabilly from the 50s - 60s. Every Grand Ole Opry star is well represented. Multiple Sun Records from Memphis with Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash. Bunches of albums on STARDAY,  GUSTO, and KING labels. Scores of independent releases. This collection reminds me of walking into the old Ernest Tubb's Record Shop in Nashville years ago. The type of records that lined the walls of that establishment in the 60s - that is the records you will find here. Basically, if a singer ever wore a rhine-stoned Nudie suit, their albums are here. 100s of records from the heyday of bluegrass. There is also some jazz, gospel, folk, soundtrack, film score records.

This collection was put together by a audiophile / musician for over 60 years. They were well cared for, and kept clean. Nearly all of them (probably around 95%) have POLY PLASTIC record protectors. They were kept for decades in a climate controlled home.

I am going to piece out this collection over the next couple of years - add me to you favorite sellers!

Records will be well packed in professional record mailer for shipping.

PLEASE feel free to contact  me if you have ANY questions.

I have done my best to accurately grade the records according to the chart below. I USUALLY GRADE AT LEAST ONE STEP LOWER THAN WHAT IT ACTUALLY APPEARS TO BE IN ORDER TO AVOID CUSTOMER DISSATISFACTION. PLEASE   READ THE CHART BEFORE BIDDING.
