Description
ATTENTION FRANK SINATRA AND CLASSIC ALBUM COLLECTORS! HERE IS AN ESSENTIAL GEM! FRANK SINATRA:"SONGS FOR SWINGIN' LOVERS". EMI PRESSED CAPITOL SILVER PRINT WITH GREEN LABELS:LCT 6106+1N/2N MATRIXES.
LATER ONES HAD THE RAINBOW RIM DESIGN AND THE COVER DESIGN IS THE EARLIEST WITH A YOUNGER LOOKING FRANK LOOKING UP. THE MORE COMMON LATER ONES HAD HIM LOOKING DOWNWARDS IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION!
NOT ESPECIALLY RARE BUT TO FIND ONE IN SUCH BRILLIANT CONDITION IS HARD-57 YEARS LATER-HOUSED IN A SUPER CLEAN FULLY LAMINATED COVER+FLIPBACK AND EVEN THE CORRECT ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOUR RECORD" WORDING!
THICK VINYL AND NATURALLY SOLID MONO!
THIS WAS A MASSIVE SELLER SO MUCH THAT IT EVEN MADE THE SINGLES CHART IN THE UK,TWO YEARS BEFORE THE UK HAD AN ALBUM CHART! THE COMBINATION OF FRANK'S SINGING AND NELSON RIDDLE'S SWINGING BACKINGS ARE TIMELESS AND SOUND FANTASTIC ON THIS LP!
THIS IS A VITAL RECORD FOR ANY SERIOUS COLLECTION OF IMPORTANT RECORDS-DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO BID FOR AN UPGRADER STANDARD LP! THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY AND ULTRA FAINT SURFACE MARKS. HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE-EVEN INBETWEEN THE TRACKS! NO JUMPS-NO STICKS-NO DISTORTION! STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION! VERY FEW COPIES SURVIVE, 57 YEARS ON-THE MAJORITY IN THE HAND OF PRIVATE COLLECTORS WHO WON'T SELL! REMEMBER THAT IN 1956,MANY FANS WERE STILL STICKING WITH 78s AND MOST COPIES SOLD WERE PLAYED ON HEAVY EQUIPMENT WITH MAJOR DAMAGE! HOUSED IN THE FULLY LAMINATED+FLIPBACK COVER WITH A TINY AMOUNT OF LAMINATION PEELING AT THE LEAD IN EDGES BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS. THE BRIGHTNESS AND LACK OF STAINING IS AMAZING. £12 STARTING PRICE.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
SHARP,CLEAN LABELS!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
