Description
Up for your consideration is an original 1962 pressing of "TWISTING WITH THE CADILLACS" on the Jubilee label, catalog number JGM 5009.
If you're a collector looking for a near mint copy of this record - well, this ain't it. (I mean, c'mon! For 99 cents?) Now if you're looking to pick up a relatively cheap copy of this doo-wop classic to fill a hole in your collection, then this listing might just be for you.
Let's start with the cover - this one's got everything (wrong, that is!): all three sides are taped up with clear cellophane tape, and there's a name (Art Russell) written in pencil in the "S" of "Twisting." There are also two small staple holes in the upper left corner, and the cover is dirty, worn and shows ring-wear.
I have actually played this record through - and this record plays better than I expected from my first visual inspection. Despite the numerous scratch and scuff marks, this record plays okay - sure, there is the expected surface noise, but the clicks and pops are relatively few and far between, with the exception of "Shock-A-Doo," (Side 2, track 2) which seems to have collected all the real problems - some major pops and several instances of recurring clicks from scratches. The record labels themselves are remarkably free from stickers and handwriting.
Here's your chance to pick up a scarce record for your collection at a reasonable price, then upgrade as opportunity and finances allow.
I am not a dealer! I'm just a guy who loves the sound of vinyl and the visual images and text that only a record cover can provide. This record - and the other records I'm listing right now - come from a friend; and I get the joy of listening through them as I put them up here on eBay for her, and the ones that don't sell, well, I get to include them in *my* collection. So it's a WIN for everybody!

If you look at my eBay rating, you'll notice I took a hit (negative feedback) some months back - my first negative *ever* in my 11 years here on eBay. In the middle of that particular auction, my attention became focused entirely on a family matter, and unfortunately, this eBay customer suffered for it. However, in the end, the customer was fully refunded *and* received the product. Please rest assured that this record - and any other item I put up here on eBay - is ready to be shipped within 24 hours of receiving your payment.

PLEASE READ - SHIPPING CHARGES
I’ll ship this Media Mail to keep costs down, but if you'd prefer another method, please let me know and we'll work it out. In the greater Boston area? We can make arrangements for pickup to save on shipping costs! Are you an Alaska or Hawaii or non-US bidder? Please contact me for an accurate rate, and to discuss payment options (additional charges may be needed for currency conversion if not using PayPal).
Also, you'll notice that my shipping charges are a little lower than most - that's because I don't try to make an extra buck from over-charging on shipping. You should know that the average cost for shipping an LP domestically via Media Mail is about $2.50. Yes, $2.50! The extra 50 cents from *my* $3 shipping charge goes toward the cost of the LP mailer, bubble-wrap, and the plastic protective sleeve that protects each of your winning bids. I guess that would be the "handling" we all hear so much about. Anyway, I thought you should know up front, how my shipping charges work.
