DISK: From a collector's vault, a classic Everly Brothers. This one is in pretty good shape, still pretty shiny with some small scuffs and scratches. Not much surface noise. Little crackles here and there when listening closely. Music is much louder. Here we are into the time of the American basic and unique sound of rock. In my opinion, its beyond the pop jazz band sound of the transitional Bill Haley, Teresa Brewer, Eddie Fisher stuff in the early phase (except Little Richard) and moved on to the pure rock sound by young people not just for them. Not blues, not soul, not R&B, not folk, not big band. Rock and roll.

My Qualifications: My representation of records is based on my reasonable, careful but amateur examination without magnification or expert knowledge. I tell what I have found by my research. So be forewarned that the record may not be exactly what I think it is or absolutely perfect in every way under expert magnified visual or expert audiophile listening scrutiny on a high-buck amp and turntable. I am just an intelligent and cautious guy reasoning out the clues and liquidating records as honestly as I can. Please understand, unless I say otherwise, that the records I am selling were not collected by me so I do not know their history. I am no kind of expert in music or records. I research each item on Discogs and, for 45s, Fosman's Dead Wax book, 45cat, and other sites for all the information in the post. If I have information from Discogs, Fosman or another seller's post that a record is a reissue, I indicate that. I listen to all 45rpm and 78rpm records and parts of any 33rpm that looks potentially damaged. I use an Ion turntable connected to my computer for 33 and 45. For 78s I have a three speed suitcase player with external speakers. I judge 45s and 33s according to Discogs standards and give the reasons for my rating so buyers can second guess me. 78s are judged on VJM standards. My quality ratings are not certified in any way. If the difference between an original edition and a reissue is indicated by a tiny detail not shown on Discogs, Fosman or by another seller, I may not discover that. Also, any record collector or dealer will tell you that published comments about record authentication are sometimes wrong, even in reference books. I sell in the belief that collectors of vintage records are more knowledgeable than me about what they collect and know what they are looking at. I am glad to answer any questions that could determine the authenticity of a version. Because collectors may know the true value of a record, while I do not, I start at a very reasonable price and let bidders set the true value, which is often much higher than I thought or much lower. If an item gets discounted and relisted several times with no bids, I discard it even though I originally thought it was worth something.
