ROCKABILLY JIM EANES STARDAY # 504 , I GOTTA KNOW

$

45

FROM THE COLLECTION OF FORMER RADIO DISC JOCKEY, AND ROCKABILLY ARTIST MR. RAY HUDSON

THIS IS A NICE ROCKABILLY 45 BY JIM EANES ON STARDAY # 504.

SONG TITLES:  I GOTTA KNOW, AND  THERE'LL COME A TIME

CONDITION: THE VINYL ON THIS ONE IS VG + +,   AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES ONE LABEL HAS SEVERE STAINS. THIS IS WATER DAMAGE FROM THE TORNADO .  THE 'A' SIDE LABEL HAS VERY SLIGHT SPOTS.

THIS IS ANOTHER GREAT EXAMPLE OF SOME OF THE RECORDS I AM FINDING IN THIS WONDERFUL COLLECTION.  PLEASE KEEP WATCHING FOR MORE GREAT FINDS.  I DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY ARE COMING, BUT I AM SURE THEY ARE.     

OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS I WILL BE LISTING RECORDS FROM THE COLLECTION OF ROCKABILLY ARTIST RAY HUDSON.  CURRENTLY THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY 11,000 45 RPM'S TO LIST.  THE VAST MAJORITY OF THESE WILL BE LISTED IN LOTS OF 10 TO 20 AND NO DOUBT THERE WILL BE SOME SLEEPERS IN THEM WHICH I WILL FAIL TO IDENTIFY.  WHEN I DO FIND ONE I WILL LIST IT SEPERATELY. 

RAY HUDSON WAS A RADIO DISC JOCKEY FOR 36 YEARS, AND HE RECORDED SOME AND TOURED FOR MANY YEARS DOING SHOWS OF HIS OWN.  HIS COLLECTION OF RECORDS WILL INCLUDE MANY PROMOTIONAL COPIES, AND MANY RECORDS THAT WERE NEVER PLAYED.  I WON'T EVEN TRY TO IDENTIFY THOSE.  I WILL TRY TO GRADE THEM VISUALLY.   MANY WILL BE NEAR MINT IN QUALITY, BUT SOME HAVE BEEN SCARRED FROM STORAGE AND MOVING AROUND.  AT ONE TIME RAY'S HOME WAS HIT BY A TORNADO, AND A FEW OF THE RECORDS THAT WERE STORED AT HIS HOME RECEIVED WATER DAMAGE.  THOSE WILL BE OBVIOUS FROM THE WATER MARKS ON THE LABELS.  IF THE RECORD WAS DAMAGED TO THE POINT THAT IT IS NOT WORTH THE TIME TO CLEAN IT, I WILL NOT LIST IT.

RAY IS VERY RELUCTANTLY PARTING WITH HIS COLLECTION.  THIS WAS HIS LIFE, BUT HE IS 83 YEARS OLD NOW, AND HAS DECIDED THAT HE SHOULD PART WITH THEM NOW RATHER THAN LEAVE THEM FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SORT AND DISPOSE OF.  HE HAS GREATLY ENJOYED HIS LIFE AND MUSIC, AND IT IS HIS HOPE THAT THE RECIPIENT OF THESE RECORDS GET AS MUCH ENJOYMENT FROM THEM AS HE DID.

AS WITH ALL MY LISTINGS I TRY TO PLACE A REALISTICALLY LOW STARTING BID, AND PLACE NO RESERVE.  SO TAKE A LOOK, PUT ME ON YOUR FAVORITES LIST, AND GET READY TO SEE SOME VERY FANTASTIC RECORDS.  I AM GOING TO TAKE THEM AS I COME TO THEM, AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I MAY FIND.  AT ANY GIVEN TIME YOU MAY SEE ALL COMMONS, AND THE NEXT TIME YOU LOOK YOU MAY FIND ALL HARD TO FIND ROCKABILLY.  I DON'T KNOW.  JUST COME ON JOIN THE FUN AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING.

As with all my listings I want you to be completely satisfied.  I will work with you to save on shipping costs by combining shipping on multiple purchases.  All my 45's will be packed in a 45 record mailer, and shipped according to your choice of media mail, 1st class, or priority mail.   I will charge $1.00 per mailer for handling cost to cover the cost of materials, otherwise the shipping cost will be as close to actual cost as I can estimate it. For example if you buy 5 single records and I mail them all in one mailer, you only pay $1. handling, and the weight will be about one pound.  If you win a lot of 15 and 5 singles I can put them in one mailer and the handling cost will be $1. and they will weigh under 3 pounds.  I will also refund your purchase price if you receive it and feel I have misrepresented the items. I will not refund shipping costs.  Just contact me and make arrangements to return the items in the same condition  as it was sent.

I HAVE MAILED HUNDREDS OF 78'S AND NEVER HAD ONE BROKEN, BUT INSURANCE IS YOUR OPTION. I WILL PROVIDE IT AT ACTUAL COST IF YOU CHOOSE.  I CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ITEMS THAT ARE MISHANDLED IN TRANSIT.
