Description

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ignore the Item Condition: Acceptable printed across the top of the eBay page.
The true condition will be listed in the description box below.

Description of item:

This record has only been played one time on one side.
The reason it was played was to detect any pops or clicks. I did not hear any.
There's 2 faint small scratches caused from a wrinkled envelope
causing part of the record to be exposed while it was in storage.
It's a beautiful record!
This is a extremely rare record hardly ever showing up
for sale or auction.
Circa 1959-62?
Does anyone have info on this artist,record label?

Hear a sample below.
Listen for the very odd sounds of the backing group.
Sort of sounds like chickens clucking.
How could you NOT like this song!?

Stone Brothers Records #45-103/45-104
"That's what I dreamed" (written byBaron/Stone)
"It's a sin to tell a lie" (Rock/Soul version of the 30's classic)
_________________________________________
I believe Stone Brothers only released 2 singles
if my memory is correct. I do not remember the
other release or artist.
_________________________________________
Ralph Preston with Jerry Merrit's Band.
I do not know if this is the Jerry Merritt Band that played
with Gene Vincent and others. Note the single "t" in Merrit.
_________________________________________
Pressed in Hollywood, Calif.
Probably recorded between 1959-62.
Note the Pre Zip-Code address.

Record Grading:

SS. Still Sealed & unplayed.
UNPLAYED. Usually store stock records I have
more than 1 copy of that I know haven't been played.
M. I never grade anything MINT
NM . Nearly flawless, nice shine and clean
labels. May have a "BB" hole in the label.
VG++ . Very nice record, not quite NM.
May have a light surface scratch not
affecting the sound or maybe a light name
written on the label.
Otherwise a very collectible record.
VG+ . Not quite as nice as VG++
but still a good record.
G++/VG-. Has some problems, scratches
and scuffs and probably an inferior label
with soil and wear.
G-/Fair/Poor. Usually worn out. I will only offer
records in this condition if they are extremely
rare.
