Description
VINTAGE 78 STUDIO RECORDING BY 1950'S ROCKABILLY GUITARIST/SINGER, GAR BACON. 2 SIDED, 2 SONGS.
I WILL BE OFFERING A COLLECTION OF RECORDINGS FROM THE ESTATE OF 1950's / 1960's ROCKABILLY PERFORMER GARWOOD BACON. "GAR" BACON IS BELIEVED TO HAVE PERFORMED UNDER VARIOUS NAMES DURING HIS CAREER AS A SINGER, GUITARIST AND COMPOSER: NAMES INCLUDE GARWOOD BACON, WOODY BACON, BILLY WOODS, TOMMY WOODS, LES VEGAS & BILLY WOODS, BOBBY BAKER, AS WELL AS POSSIBLY ONE OR TWO OTHERS. HIS BIGGEST HIT WAS THE 1957 ROCKER "THERE'S GONNA BE ROCKIN TONIGHT". TO MY KNOWLEDGE HE PERFORMED MAINLY IN THE GREATER PHILADELPHIA-SOUTH JERSEY AREA. HE RESIDED IN RIVERTON N.J.
THIS COLLECTION INCLUDES SEVERAL RECORDINGS THAT I CAN FIND NO INFORMATION ON. THERE ARE 78 RPM STUDIO DEMO DISCS OF SOME OF HIS KNOWN RECORDINGS, AS WELL AS OTHER STUDIO DISCS THAT WERE APPARENTLY UNPUBLISHED. I AM NOT CERTAIN IF THESE 78 DEMOS ARE VINYL, AS OPPOSED TO ACETATES. SOME ARE MORE PLIABLE THAN OTHERS.
THERE ARE MANY 45'S IN THIS GROUPING WHICH WILL BE LISTED AS TIME PERMITS. SOME OF THESE TITLES CAN BE FOUND ON YOUTUBE, AND OTHERS I CAN FIND NO INFORMATION ON. OTHER RECORDS IN THIS COLLECTION IN WHICH GAR BACON IS NOT THE PERFORMING ARTIST WERE FOUND TO BE EITHER WRITTEN OR COMPOSED BY HIM, OR OTHERWISE COLLABORATED ON IN SOME WAY BY HIM, AND THUS WERE PART OF HIS PERSONAL COLLECTION.
I AM NOT A RECORD DEALER, DO NOT OWN A RECORD PLAYER, AND HAVE NOT LISTENED TO ANY OF THESE RECORDINGS. I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE ANY OBVIOUS FLAWS, MARKS, OR CONDITION ISSUES AS THEY ARE APPARENT TO ME. I WILL ATTEMPT TO GRADE THEM ALONG THE GENERAL GUIDELINES THAT APPEAR IN THE GOLDMINE STANDARD OF GRADING, BUT I CAN MAKE NO GUARANTEES AS TO HOW THEY WILL ACTUALLY PLAY. I WILL FULLY DESCRIBE EACH RECORD AS I AM INDIVIDUALLY LISTING THEM. THEY APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN WELL CARED FOR PRIOR TO MY RECEIVING THEM. SOME OF THESE RECORDS ARE IN MULTIPLES, AND SOME APPEAR TO HAVE NEVER BEEN PLAYED, WHILE OTHERS ARE IN VARYING DEGREES OF USED/HANDLED CONDITION.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE LISTED RECORDS OF ANY TYPE ON EBAY. DEPENDING ON HOW THIS GOES, I HOPE TO BE EVENTUALLY LISTING THIS ENTIRE COLLECTION. ALL RECORDS WILL BE SHIPPED IN BAGS UNLIMITED RECORD MAILERS WITH CARDBOARD FILLERS.
AGAIN, PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THESE RECORDINGS ARE NOT PLAY GRADED: ANY MARKINGS WHICH MAY AFFECT PLAY WILL BE NOTED TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.
