About Vee-Jay Records (Chicago 1950’s-1960’s)- Vee-Jay's biggest successes occurred from 1962 to 1964, with the ascendancy and the distribution of early Beatles material because EMI’s autonomous US company Capitol initially refused to release Beatles records. Vee-Jay's releases were at first unsuccessful, but quickly became huge hits once the British Invasion took off in early 1964, selling 2.6 million Beatles singles in a single month.
Please see all photos for conditions. Fair Offers are welcome. Has been stored in a dry and smoke-free environment, in it’s cardboard sleeve for years.
