WELCOME AGAIN TO MY CONTINUING RECORD COLLECTION CLEAROUT.

I HAVE JUST TAKEN IN A HUGE COLLECTION FROM A FRIEND (OVER 3000 ITEMS) WHICH I WILL BE SELLING OFF OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. THE BULK OF IT IS 50s/60s STUFF INCLUDING BEATLES, STONES & LOADS OF ELVIS.

THIS LOT IS FOR 50 SINGLES ALL FROM THE 1950s & 1960s 

ARTISTS INCLUDE: BUDDY HOLLY, BOBBY VEE, DUANE EDDY, BOBBY DARIN, PAT BOONE, ROY ORBISON, CAROLE KING, THE RONETTES, TROY SHONDELL, CHRIS MONTEZ, THE VENTURES, DEL SHANNON, JOHNNY TILLOTSON, JOHNNY BURNETTE, BILLY FURY, BRIAN POOLE & THE TREMELOES, THE SHADOWS, DAVE CLARK FIVE, RICKY VALANCE, BILLY J KRAMER, SHANE FENTON, SWINGIN' BLUE JEANS, MANFRED MANN, JOHN LEYTON, CRAIG DOUGLAS, EVERLY BROTHERS, SEARCHERS, CONNIE FRANCIS, PAUL ANKA, THE ALLISONS, TOMMY ROE, THE SUPREMES, THE BACHELORS & OTHERS

LABELS INCLUDE: TOP RANK, LONDON, BRUNSWICK, FONTANA, MGM, PHILIPS, CORAL, DECCA, RCA, STATESIDE, WARNER BROS, HMV, PARLOPHONE & COLUMBIA

 4 DISCS HAVE THE CENTRE MISSING AND THERE IS THE ODD ONE WITH WRITING/STICKERS ON THE LABEL. THERE ARE FOUR E.Ps INCLUDED WITH THIS LOT.

OVERALL CONDITION IS VG-/VG/VG+. THERE WILL BE THE ODD ONES WHICH ARE A BIT WORSE AND, LIKEWISE, THE ODD ONES WHICH ARE A BIT BETTER. I HAVE PLAYED ALL OF THESE THROUGH (BOTH 'A' & 'B' SIDES) ON MY AUTOCHANGE PLAYER AND THEY ALL PLAY THROUGH WITH NO STICKS OR JUMPS. THERE IS A BIT OF SURFACE NOISE BUT NOTHING THAT INTERFERES WITH THE MUSIC TOO MUCH. I HAVE WIPED EACH RECORD OVER WITH A DAMP RECORD CLEANING CLOTH TO REMOVE DUST & FINGERPRINTS BUT IF EACH ONE WAS GIVEN A PROPER 'WET' CLEAN IT WOULD UNDOUBTEDLY IMPROVE THE SOUND.

VISUALLY THE RECORDS HAVE SURFACE MARKS/SCUFFS, HAIRLINES & LIGHT SCRATCHES. ANYTHING BADLY DAMAGED OR THAT WILL NOT PLAY THROUGH PROPERLY HAS BEEN REMOVED. ALL RECORDS ARE SLEEVED WITH QUITE A FEW IN THEIR ORIGINAL COMPANY SLEEVES.

AN IDEAL COLLECTION FOR JUKEBOX OWNERS, PARTIES OR STACKING UP ON YOUR OLD DANSETTE TYPE RECORD PLAYER

50 CLASSICS FROM THE SWINGING SIXTIES   

I WILL POST THESE VIA COURIER. POSTAGE WILL COST £7.50

COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY HOUSE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF SALISBURY
