4 vintage 33 1/3 LP records of Glenn Miller's stomping swing tunes which defined the Big Band era.
Collection includes:
The Marvelous Miller Medleys - RCA 1958 LOP-1005 Glenn Miller plays selections from The Glenn Miller Story and other Hits - RCA 1960 LPM-1192 RE2 Glenn Miller Collector's Choice - Harmony Records HS 11393 (crease in right top corner of cover, some foxing on back bottom cover The Glenn Miller Orchestra returns to Glen Island Casino - RCA 1968 LSP-3880 (stamped on back "For Promotion only")
All the records and covers are in generally good used condition with no major visible flaws in the vinyl. The previous collector did have some quirks - he wrote his name on the back every cover along with what I am assuming is the date he bought the album. He also made notes on some of the covers about the music, who the soloists were, where it was recorded, particular qualities of the piece that they liked. It's like having some custom extra liner notes. They also underlined certain phrases in the printed liner notes for emphasis - maybe this was a music teacher taking details of what to play for students - or a super fan? Just know that while they are in good shape, there is some writing on the covers (see photos for details).
