Description
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 45 RPM VINYL RECORD
I'm listing more 45's, so please keep checking my auctions
and combine shipping on your wins.
Very rare, PRIMITIVE ROCKABILLY 45, issued in 1956. One side features some outrageous hiccup style vocals. Both sides are great, hard-rocking genuine rockabilly at its peak.
JUNIOR THOMPSON also recorded for the METEOR and BADD record labels; this record on the TUNE label is not numbered, but the matrix numbers in the trailoffs are SO-174 & SO-175. The TUNE label to my knowledge was located in Florence, Alabama, and this may be the first 45 they issued; it is certainly one of the earliest.
This record lists at $150-250 for a copy in excellent condition in Osbourne's 2004 price guide; this copy is not in excellent condition, but it plays through with no skips.
