Description

Info: This auction item is for a U.S. pressing of an LP that features some very rare performances by The Beatles (as well as by The Beat Brothers, a pre-Beatles band name!). Six of the tracks are Beatles-related, while the rest were performed by The Titans. It was released in 1964 on MGM Records (E-4215 Mono). The serial number on the back is E/SE-4215. The reverse side of this LP has the track listing and liner notes. The inner sleeve is generic and white.


ALWAYS a low-starting bid and NO Sales Tax!


Condition: The vinyl is Mint to Mint Minus. One of the labels has a scratch. Other than that, the vinyl has been kept in brilliant shape. The outer sleeve has pretty minor shelf wear considering the age and has no splits. The inner sleeve has no splits but has ambered considerably from the original generic white release. 


Track Listing:

Side 1: My Bonnie* / Cry for a Shadow* / Johnson Rag / Swanee River* / Flying Beat / The Darktown Strutters' Ball

Side 2: The Saints* / Rye Beat / You Are My Sunshine* / Summertime Beat / Why* / Happy New Year Beat

Tracks with an * are The Beatles-related tracks.


Keep an eye on my listings as I am posting lots of records here over the next several months!


Quality and Storage: Having played these records in my past, I don’t recall any of these records having issues such as being warped or having skips. I never loaned them out, never touched the actual vinyl and have always been a mint-condition freak. In the early days, to cut down on vinyl usage, I used to make and play an audio cassette version made from the vinyl.


As I cannot take an hour to list each item with every possible detail (but will do my best!), I will gladly answer any questions if there is anything specific information you need to know about the listing that I did not cover.


I have only lived in two places over the last 25 years and the records have been living in their own custom-made cabinets inside a non-smoking household. They have never been in storage or abused in any way.


If you are looking for something specific and I have it, I will list it for you upon request.


About Me & My Collection: I was the guitar player/writer in the progressive metal band, CASSLE. (You can find out more on our website.)  Being a huge music fan, I spent many years working in and around the record business in Los Angeles. The famed record chain, Amoeba Records, has been virtually frothing at the mouth to purchase my collection. Since I and a lot of the working world are between jobs right now, I thought it best to sell to the general public.


What the collection offers is lots of old records that were out of print and in decent shape to cut-outs and promo stamped versions, white label promos to immaculate records in store-bought condition to picture discs, colored vinyl, bootlegs and lots of imports from all over the world such as the high quality releases from Germany and Japan. Lots of titles with their original cover art and/or original labels, some in their original unopened shrink wrap! If I bought it new and it had any additional inserts... they will still be there.


Shipping: All domestic shipments for LPs are $4 to ship Media Mail. (Keeping in mind that eBay caps Media Mail shipments at $4 means that I typically lose money on shipping because I invested in special shipping materials to ship records safely!) $1 per additional LP in the same shipment up to maybe 5 items depending on the final size of the shipment. (Please try and notify me if you are bidding on additional items because I tend to pack and ship quite quickly and would prefer to wait so that I can accommodate additional items in the same box and apply a discount to you.) I will ship Priority Mail domestically if specified, but it will cost more. No returns unless I have have made errors on how I listed the item in question, so please e-mail me with any pertinent questions you might have!

I will ship internationally ONLY if you are patient to receive the item because it is a time-consuming procedure that I cannot do from home like I can for domestic shipments. Shipping costs outside of the US are not cheap and I might have to invoice you separately for those charges .
