OK, BACK TO SOME GOOD 45s OF VARIOUS MUSICAL STYLES FOR A WEEK OR TWO - This is a reasonably priced ORIGINAL 1960 U.S. Atlantic Records 45 RPM record in its original stock Atlantic Records company sleeve containing the tunes titled 'Bumble Bee'/'My Time Will Come' from R&B pioneer Lavern Baker. It is Atlantic Records catalog number 2077, and is a GUARANTEED 1960 ORIGINAL, NOT A 'REPRO' REPRODUCTION AND NOT A 1970s ERA 'COLLECTORS PRESSING'!! Lavern's version of 'Bumble Bee' is the original recorded version of this tune, which later appeared on a UK EP by the British Invasion band The Searchers, who also had a hit with the song in the U.S. when it was issued as a single over here in 1965. Condition of record is conservatively a real nice high VG++/NM- with all original gloss and just a very few extremely light and small surface marks which only show up under strong light, cannot be felt, and do not affect play. Records also has an extremely slight and almost non-existant slow warp which only becomes apparent when the record is placed on a turntable, and which also has absolutely no effect on play. Record plays through nicely with a tiny bit of light surface noise. Labels have some wear around the center hole and a little bit of contact wear as can be seen in my accompanying image, no other real flaws worth mentioning. This 45 would make a choice addition to any 'Mod' R&B dance record collection! Winning bidder pays $3.00 first class mail postage or actual priority mail postage within the U.S. I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE - First class international airmail postage to the UK or anyplace in Europe is $7.50, Canada $4.00 - Please e-mail me for postage rates to other areas outside the U.S. WINNING BIDDER PLEASE DO NOT SEND CASH - IT PROBABLY WILL NOT GET HERE! I will give an immediate refund (less shipping) upon return of the 45 if winning bidder is dissatisfied for any reason. Good luck!
