Description
A word about freight: No matter what Ebay says, we charge $ 5.90 for media mail and $7.00 for priority mail for domestic shipping. Overseas is $15.50 for first lp and $3.00 for each thereafter, if you get over 4 lps then the rate goes up to $4 each, because we have to ship priority mail. When you place a bid on this item, you acknowledge this. They do not take into account, the box price nor any other expense in mailing (petrol, employees etc). This is our rate period. We've had a few complaints about this, but we are in business to make a profit (god forbid). Thanks for understanding. Also, if you do not register your parcel if ordering overseas (An additional $10.50), we cannot be responsible for loss. Thanks for understanding. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THIS SHIPPING RATE PLEASE DO NOT BID!!!
THIS ITEM MUST BE PAID FOR WITHIN ONE WEEK OF THE AUCTION ENDING.
What you are bidding on is a very very old, USA pressing of the ZUZU BOLLIN: WHY DON'T YOU EAT WHERE YOU SLEPT LAST NIGHT. The 10" is an original pressing from the early 50's. This is some of the rarest Texas blues ever. Only two singles made and we got em both.
Two 78s in the early '50s and a 1989 rediscovery album don't add up to much of a recorded legacy. But Zuzu Bollin's contribution to the Texas blues legacy shouldn't be overlooked -- his T-Bone Walker influenced sound typified postwar Lone Star blues guitar.
I grade the 78's visually inasmuch as I don't have a 78 player to play them. 1-10 ten (10 will be new and unplayed)(6-7 will be VG to VG+). Anything above a 5 is worth having in my opinion. 1-5 they are marked and scratchy, but still may play ok. Bear in mind most of these are nearly 70 years old and they won't look like they came off the store shelf.
Condition = 6-7
