Hello everyone,
I'm having another purge as I continue to downsize my collection of some 60+ years and, as a result, I will be listing many 78rpm jazz records over the coming weeks.
Most will be New Orleans and Swing recorded from the 1920s to the 50s. Detailed below are 33 Big Band Swing records. The artists are listed below but please study the pictures for further details.
Glenn Miller Benny Goodman Fats Waller One with ' His Buddies ' Charlie Barnet Tommy Dorsey Artie Shaw Woody Herman John Kirby Harry James Ray McKinley Billy May Danny Polo Pee Wee Hunt Ray Anthony A wonderful recording of Dragnet. Stan Kenton Gordon Jenkins
The overall condition being VG. A few grade as VG+ and EXC - and a few VG-. Only one [ Danny Polo ] is G++. I have a professional cleaner, a Pristine Vinyl ViVac RCS, and all have been cleaned on this machine. On many of the records just one or two small scuffs or superficial lines have meant a downgrading. All play true, the Polo disc has little distortion on occasion. They are all dead flat. There is in all cases some surface noise, which considering the age, is not unusual. Many 78s have this as a result of them being played on a wind-up gram with it's heavy arm and steel needle. Atmospheric, is what I prefer to call sound of nostalgia. None have any big or deep scratches, most imperfections are superficial.
All come in sleeves in very good condition. Some a shade better and some a little less. Some company sleeves, some brown paper ones and some retailers' cardboard ones with their names.
The records will be bubble wrapped and double boxed for dispatch.
If personal collection is preferred, payment is by cash only on collection. Thank you.
Please, feel free to ask questions or request further pictures.
Kind regards,
|Brian.
