Description
Plays great in-spite of hair line scratches, some minor background noise not distracting from the music heard mostly between tracks. Sleeve is split on spine and top, front is glossy back is slightly dirty. Please see pictures. Both record and sleeve have been thoroughly cleaned. Records are visually graded based on Goldmine standards, some are test played to assure distortion free playback. I am happy to offer combined shipping for LPs paid for in the same order, and shipped to addresses within the US, shipping is $4 for the 1st LP, and $1 for each additional. Please wait to be invoiced if combining shipping. All records are removed from covers (unless sealed) and shipped in generic sleeve and sturdy record mailers to ensure safe arrival. Thanks. Inducted into Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 (Performer).
Frankie Lymon - Real Name: Franklin Joseph Lymon - September 30, 1942 – February 27, 1968) was an American Rock and Roll / Rhythm & Blues singer and songwriter.
He was best known as the boy soprano lead singer of the New York City-based early rock and roll group, Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers. After Lymon went solo in mid-1957, both his career and those of the Teenagers fell into decline. At age 25, he was found dead in his grandmother's bathroom from a heroin overdose. Lymon is buried in an unmarked grave in New York but his tombstone is at Clifton Music in New Jersey. His life inspired the 1998 film, Why Do Fools Fall In Love?.price rating
