Description
Setting the stage:
I started to “build a record collection” of sorts about 20 years ago. I was motivated to buy vinyl because of a record player I received as a gift. What I quickly found out was that the vinyl records market is very dense and convoluted. Despite my love for music and all of its versatility, I didn’t have much direction. I simply bought what I liked to listen to, and I ended up with a “collection” of original records (i.e. first pressing) and reissues. Some purchases were of new records and some purchases were of used records, but for the last 20 years or so (subject to release date), all of the records I am offering have been in my possession. In total, I’ve accumulated just over 100 records for my “record collection”. Ultimately, these records have been collecting dust sitting on my shelves. I’ve opened and unwrapped some of the records and others are as is. Have I listened to them all? No way. I would estimate I’ve listened to about 25 of the records and some of them even a few times. Any of these records can become part of your collection now. I will be posting them in batches because compiling a discography, cataloging, and photographing all these records has been much more difficult than buying them and enjoying them. By now you can probably tell I’m not very technical with the record jargon. I’ve dedicated an immense amount of time to compiling the most accurate information to provide you about the records I am offering. I believe all of the records are in good condition at a minimum. I purchased them all from reputable record stores and not at garage sales or flea markets. That being said, I am happy to answer questions on the higher dollar items ($50+), I won’t take pictures and fulfill a bunch of random requests for the low dollar items, I just don’t have the bandwidth. In the end, I believe you will be very satisfied with your purchase. Please make sure and check out my other lots, there will certainly be something up your alley. I have priced all the items to reflect their current condition. If you disagree with my assessments please do not make the purchase. All sales items are final and I will not accept returns. Now onto the good stuff…
PRICES FOR THIS RECORD RANGE FROM $230-$450.
Frank Sinatra️:
Frank Sinatra, the Chairman of the Board, was more than just a singer—he was the defining voice of the 20th century. With unmatched charisma and phrasing, Sinatra reinvented pop vocal performance, leaving behind a legacy that influenced generations. Known for both his suave stage presence and emotional depth, his catalog spans swing, jazz, and classic balladry, creating timeless standards still revered today. Collaborating with legends like Nelson Riddle and Count Basie, Sinatra’s career was filled with innovative milestones. His work transcended genres, blending orchestral sophistication with swinging rhythm sections. He wasn’t just a singer—he was a storyteller, and Sinatra at the Sands is one of his most electric chapters.
Sinatra at the Sands :
Sinatra at the Sands is a landmark 1966 live album capturing Frank Sinatra in his prime, performing at the legendary Sands Hotel in Las Vegas with Count Basie & His Orchestra. Arranged and conducted by a young Quincy Jones, this set bursts with energy, wit, and that signature Sinatra swagger. From “Come Fly with Me” to the heartfelt “One for My Baby,” this album is a masterclass in live performance.
