Description

ONE OF A KIND CUSTOM ACETATE CUT IN 2005 - AT LAST BY ETTA JAMES & CRAZY BY PATSY CLINE.
At Last was originally pressed in late 1960 and is not available except as a custom record. The "At Last" album was included in The Rolling stone magazine's 500 Best Albums of All time. Crazy is the #1 requested jukebox record of all time.
I bought my Wurlitzer Victory 42 in 2004 but was having troubles finding records. In 2005, I found a fellow who cut custom records for not too much money. My original plan was to have twenty five two-sided records cut, but my wife objected (I had already spent too much on the jukebox). The titles that didn't get made included The Rolling Stones "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" & the Beatles "Back In the USSR". By the time I decided to order more records, the gentleman had passed away. Oh what could have been.
This custom acetate was on my jukebox from 2005 to 2019. It has smudges and could use a little cleaning.  "At Last" has a couple of  scratches and a couple of scuffs which do not affect the play. Record sounds great. 
Crazy has one long scratch that does affect the play. It has a rhythmic clicking sound that is most noticeable in the first 30 seconds. The scratch was a result of getting caught in the in the record tray return. Soon after the scratch occurred, I got a reproduction record set copy, and I stopped playing this copy. I just played it again to see how it sounded. Not nearly as bad as I expected. The record has a very full sound, and if it was my only copy, I'd be happy to play it.  
I have a lot of 78 rpm Reproduction Records (from incomplete reproduction sets) that I am selling individually. Also, five complete Reproduction sets, and several custom acetates (Pretty Woman is one) along with a few original acetate 78s (including a Pasty Cline). 
I will Combine shipping for $1.00 for each additional record up to a maximum of $8.00. As a bonus, the five bidders with the most records with have their records shipped in a custom box complete with original graphics as shown in the photos above (which box to be determine)
