Description
Coming out of Fargo, North Dakota is this outstanding Garage - Rockabilly group Ronnie Ray and the Playboys with Vulture / Mean Mama Blues. I will write more later about this one, but just wanted to get it listed right away in case someone needed a Christmas gift idea.
Thanks for taking a look and listen to my auction listing. This auction is for a very rare record from Ronnie Ray and the Playboys, who recorded the first significant instrumental song to emerge from the Fargo, North Dakota 60s music scene . That song “The Vulture” is the B-side to this single and will also be added into the embedded auction player. Ron Rekken, then a freshman at Concordia College, took a Playboys lineup that included Larry McCrehin, Pete Beck and Bruce Carney to the Circle-Dot Studio in Minneapolis and recorded “The Vulture” (a McCrehin composition) in October 1959. “The Vulture” was released in January 1960 and nearly edged out “Muleskinner Blues” by The Fendermen atop KXGO’s Fabulous Fifty Survey, settling in one week at #2.
Both collectors of 60s Garage Bands as well as Rockabilly Fans are going to want to add this record to their collection. I live just a few hours south of Fargo and have never before come across this record in ALL of the boxes of 45s which I have sorted through. Pull the most current (2008) Jerry Osborne Rockin' Records guide off the shelf and look this one up...yep, it really is that rare!
The overall condition of this record is VG++. If you are unhappy with my grading of this record, I offer a full money back refund (including postage) upon the record's safe return...so take advantage of the weak American dollar and bid with confidence.
I will be adding several more Rockabilly records this week to eBay, so please take a look at them. Why? Because if you win several of my auctions...I can ship all of the records to you in a cardboard record mailer for the low low price of just $4.00 (to anywhere in the world!).
