52

 This auction consists of the complete set of Time-Life History Of Big Bands vinyl record collection. This is a factory sealed collection. None of the 29 volumes in the set have ever been opened and all volumes are still sealed in original shrink wrap.  Each volume include 2 records, these are remastered half speed audiophile recordings. There are a total of 58 records. I recently acquired these a local estate sale. I am offering them as/is as found. They all look to be in excellent condition, obviously they are still sealed. The records are in mint condition. This is a rare opportunity to get the whole collection at once. I tried to copy some information as to the separate volume song titles and performers but ebay won't allow it. I did manage to get a picture of each volume. The tan covers on the left are what you are bidding on (the black are the cd versions - not included). More information can be found at bsnpubs.com/warner/time-life/14bigbands/14bigbands.html - google this and you can get all of the titles and performers.

Includes: Glenn Miller * Artie Shaw * Gley Gray * Duke Ellington * Tommy Dorsey * Benny Goodman * Harry James * Charlie Barnet * Woody Herman * Count Basie * Stan Kenton * Les Brown  * Jimmy Dorsey * Louis Armstrong * Gene Krupa * Bob Crosby * Lionel Hampton * Jimmie Lunceford *
