**Payment for USPS Priority Shipping within 24 hours of end of auction guarantees expedited Priority shipment by 7pm Eastern time Dec. 19th.* -------------------------- Details and pricing for this item are based on information in the reference book "Jerry Osborne's Rockin Records." If you have any questions, Please contact me. I go the extra mile to provide deadwax information because I want to make sure the item I'm selling is the Exact item you want. --------------------- The original "Motley Crew" ! "Honking at Midnight" will be definitely be part of my New Year's Eve mix !
Factory-stamped original pressing of this Classic R &B instrumental with unforgettable repartee "Honking at Midnight" b/w a different flip side you don't often see, the doo-wop ballad "What Can I Do" on "DC" Records #45-0435, released 1961.
Hard to find "Honking" in this near-flawless condition!
Both sides have "Sheldon" factory-stamped in cursive lettering in the deadwax (run-off groove).
"Honking at Midnight" (DC 528) plays Near-Mint -- no audible flaws. Deadwax also has DC 528 etched in it, though sloppy and hard to read.
"What Can I Do" also plays Near-Mint -- a couple of crackles during the last 3 seconds of fading out at the end are the only audible flaws. DC 527 is etched in the deadwax.
Label on "Honking" side is VG+ due to writing. Label on other side grades EX.
**Sound-clips of both songs in their entirety are available upon request.** Contact me through eBay's 'contact seller' link.
All vinyl records are play-graded on a professional model Technics SL1200-MK2 turntable.
All photos are of actual item for sale.
