Description
WRITTEN AND RECORDED BY COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE LORETTA LYNN. RELEASED IN MARCH OF 1960 ON ZERO RECORDS, A LABEL THAT WAS CREATED ONLY FOR LORETTA BY A LOCAL BUSINESS MAN FROM WASHINGTON STATE WHERE LORETTA WAS LIVING WITH HER HUSBAND DOOLITTLE AT THE TIME AND HE WANTED HER TO RECORD WHISPERING SEA BECAUSE IT REMINDED HIM OF HIS WIFE THAT HAD RECENTLY PASSED ( AT THAT TIME ) DOOLITTLE AND LORETTA SET OUT TO SELF PROMOTE THIS 45 ON THEIR OWN DRIVING TO ALL COUNTRY MUSIC RADIO STATIONS WHERE THEY WERE PLAYING THE OTHER SONG "HONKY TONK GIRL" WHERE IT PEAKED AT #14. THE STORY IS BEST TOLD IN HER BOOK OR BY WATCHING THE MOVIE "COAL MINERS DAUGHTER" AND FOLKS, THIS WAS NEVER DONE BEFORE THAT TIME IN HISTORY WHEN THIS WAS ACCOMPLISHED.
THIS RECORD WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF AS VINEY IS VERY SHINEY BUT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
RECORD WILL BE INSURED GIVEN THE PRICE AND WILL BE FIGURED IN SHIPPING PRICE.
NOW IT SEEMS I HAVE TO PUT THIS OUT THERE AS OF RECENTLY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ASKING TO RETURN HARD TO FIND CD'S, LP'S AND 45 RPM RECORDS AND PICTURE SLEEVES. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SWITCHING OUT THEIR WORN OUT SCRATCHED RECORDS FOR MINE AND OR RECORDING THEM. RECORD STORES IN THE DAY DID NOT EVER ACCEPT A RETURN AND NEITHER WILL I. ONE GUY RECENTLY TRIED TO CHANGE THE PRICE AFTER HE BOUGHT IT AND WHEN I DECLINED HIS GAME, THEN EMBELLISHED HIS STORY & GAVE ME A NEGATIVE, I WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY THIEVES AND SCAMMERS.
