	$		470

ATTENTION 1950s GIRL SINGER AND RARE BRITISH LP COLLECTORS!

I HAVE JUST BOUGHT ONE OF THE BIGGEST AND BEST COLLECTIONS I HAVE EVER SEEN OF 1950s AND EARLY 1960s GIRL SINGERS LPs,EPs AND 45s.

MANY MORE TO FOLLOW FROM ME OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS ON MY EBAY LISTS!

HERE IS A RARELY SEEN GEM IN SUPERB STRICTLY GRADED NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION!

JOAN REGAN:"JUST JOAN".

THIS LP INCLUDES A LOVELY SELECTION OF 12 SONGS OF LOVE AND REFLECTIVE SADDER MOODS THAT ARE OFTEN REGARDED AS"TORCH SONGS"THAT ONLY EXPERIENCED AND TALENTED BALLAD SINGERS CAN HANDLE-JOAN REGAN RECORDED NOVELTY POP MATERIAL AS WELL HAVING A NUMBER OF BRITISH HIT SINGLES BUT DECCA RECORDS GAVE HER THE LUXURY OF A 12 INCH LP AS AN EARLY CONCEPT LP IN 1956,ONE OF THE FEW BRITISH GIRL SINGERS WHO DID THIS AND WITH LUSH,TENDER ARRANGEMENTS BY JOHNNY ROBERTS WITH SOME OCCASIONAL SAXOPHONE SOLOS. IT WAS NOT A BIG SELLER-PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A YEAR OF ISSUE AS DECCA ISSUED HUNDREDS OF LPs EVERY YEAR WITH ONLY THE BIGGEST SELLERS REMAINING IN PRINT FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN SOUGHT AFTER WORLDWIDE-POSSIBLY NOT ISSUED OUTSIDE THE UK-ALTHOUGH AN AMERICAN PRESSING MIGHT EXIST AS SHE HAD JUST ONE MINOR #55 AMERICAN HIT SINGLE IN 1955.THIS IS A VERY NICE COPY THAT HAS HAD A FEW PLAYS BUT STILL VERY WELL CARED FOR AND THE BEST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN MANY YEARS SO DON'T MISS OUT!

AN ORIGINAL 1956 1ST PRESSING ON THE DECCA  LABEL LK 4153-VERY THICK VINYL! 

A FEW VERY TINY AND FAINT SURFACE MARKS IN STRONG LIGHT BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND GLEAMING SURFACES!

MY  STRICT NEAR EXCELLENT GRADING IS DUE TO SOME SLIGHT DISTORTION AT A FEW OF THE SOUND"PEAKS"POSSIBLY DUE TO BEING PLAYED WITH A HEAVY PICKUP OR JUST THROUGH A NUMBER OF PLAYS,HOWEVER THIS IS WITH MY TREBLE CONTROL FULL ON TO HEAR IT,AT IT'S WORSE-ADJUST THE TREBLE SLIGHTLY OR USE THE MONO SWITCH IF YOU HAVE ONE AND THIS MINOR FAULT IS MINIMAL-VERY FEW SELLERS MENTION THIS SORT OF SITUATION.THERE ARE NO CLICKS,STICKS,JUMPS AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE CRACKLE-CLEARLY A COPY THAT HAS BEEN CHERISHED AND THE SOUND IS WARM.

NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS! SOUNDS GREAT!

A COPY THAT HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS! 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN DREADFUL CONDITIONS AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH 1950s LPs!  THIS MAY BE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO UPGRADE YOUR EXISTING COPY IF YOU HAVE ONE!

SOME COLLECTORS MAY NOT KNOW THAT IN THE 1950s MOST LPs WERE EXPENSIVE(USUALLY FOUR THE PRICE OF SINGLES)WITH THE MAJORITY ONLY HAVING SMALL PRINT RUNS AND MINIMAL SALES-SOME SHOPS ONLY OBTAINING THEM TO SPECIAL ORDER-VERY FEW REMAINED IN PRINT FOR MORE THAN A FEW MONTHS RESULTING IN GENUINE SCARCITY OVER 50 YEARS LATER!

MANY BUYERS WERE STILL STICKING WITH 78s!

THE FULLY LAMINATED COVER HAS SLIGHT CREASES MAINLY AT THE EDGES,A FEW SPOT AGE STAINS AND JUST A LITTLE LAMINATION PEELING AT THE FRONT BUT NO RIPS,WRITING OR REPAIRS.

THE ORIGINAL PVC INNER BAG IS INCLUDED.

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD EXPERTS/DEALERS.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "EXCELLENT"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.
