@evankirk I know, Right! How can I pass stuff like that up? I forgot all about that record. I gotta dig it out and give er a spin....

Excellent stuff! I have "Blueberry Hill" by Fats Domino on a 45.

Wow...can't beat the free 78's!! Especially the Hank Williams! I find V-discs fascinating. I agree about the Rhino...I've heard it before. Not that great. Thanks so much for sharing your finds!!

I have been listening to Yesterday USA and they have been playing V-Disc every now and then. Those have to be rare and very collectable, I think they are great finds.

@AllAmericanFiveRadio Yah, The guy had 6 or 8 more at the convention, all in the $2 to $8 range. But he said he had dozens at the warehouse that were in much better shape, ranging from $5.00 to $50.00. If only I had unlimited funds.

It bothers me that the record spins at the wrong speed in the Blues Brothers movie!

Some great finds in there!

[78Revolutions]

@aldiakaroofus It sure does! Its being played on a simple 33/45 player, and the zoom-in shows a different record. it is a decca label, but not this record. It was a total fluke that I learned that when I happened to have BB on the computer and slo-mo'd the record scene.

Blueberry Hill! FABULOUS! Louis Jordan! Some GREAT free items!! WOW! Those Vdiscs are cool. Charlie at Platter World has some of those. GREAT demonstration record!! Gorgeous gold vinyl! I would have bought the demo record too. I have that Christmas Tree shaped vinyl! As well as a Pumpkin Shaped one from Rhino! Great stuff!
