Up for sale is.....

        a less common format of

 FRANK SINATRA singing

 Goodnight Irene / My Blue Heaven

on Columbia 7-inch vinyl

33-1/3 rpm microgroove ZLP

 Columbia 1-718

Issued in July, 1950

This 7” single/mono 33-1/3 RPM format was relatively short-lived for Columbia.

The same Sinatra recording was one of Columbia’s first 7” vinyl 45 RPM releases, announced on August 12, 1950 in Billboard magazine.

 ZLP 3247 Frank Sinatra w Mitch Miller Orch/ Goodnight Irene.

(Ledbetter, Lomax)

 

ZLP 2737 Frank Sinatra w George Siravo Orch/ My Blue Heaven.

(G. Whiting, Donaldson)

 The disc features a ‘rumble strip’ for better traction.

Genre: Jazz, Pop

Style:  Vocal, Easy Listening

This vintage record plays without any skips, but with typical surface noise and light ‘pops’.

The record would benefit from a cleaning (I’ll leave that up to the new owner).

The paper sleeve is not the original.
