patricia Posted July 2, 2005 Report Posted July 2, 2005 (edited) The Blues, featuring Ray Charles - This is really early stuff, from the fifties I think, on HURRAH records. Ray Charles - This is an interesting record. Three tracks, I Can See Clearly Now, Let It Be, How Long Has This Been Going On. What's interesting is that although this is a 12" record, it plays on 45RPM!!! At first I thought that it sounded kinda draggy. Then I realized it was the speed I was playing it on. NICE version of Let It Be, so it must have been recorded in the sixties. The label is Midsong International Records. Strange I thought. Edited July 2, 2005 by patricia Quote
wolff Posted July 2, 2005 Author Report Posted July 2, 2005 (edited) Where are the best sources for Speakers Corner and Classic lps? I know the Trumpet has the latter, but they are on the pricey side. ← Most places charge $30, but I use Red Trumpet for 2 reasons. They have been completely understanding regarding Classic Records spotty quality of late and take returns without a hastle. They also have sales once every couple months. Right now they are having a 10% off 4th of July sale, and often they will have a $4 off items over $20-25 sale. Plus, free shipping for purchases over $50. So, I pay $26-27 each, with free shipping. Still pricey, but the best I've found. What titles are you thinking about? Edited July 2, 2005 by wolff Quote
