Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "High Fidelity" (mono) vinyl LP, Capitol T-2357, near-mint vinyl in a near-mint cardboard jacket with the word "PROMO" hole-punched into the upper corner. Don't know how the marketing folks at Capitol could have gotten much more straightforward than this: No need to wade through the fine print of 70-ish songwriter Jimmy McHugh's back-of-the-jacket palaver about "muted violins . . . candlelight, moonglow, and dreams for two" to get the unmistakable message: Buy an album called "Warm and Willing"; chill down some martinis, warm up the turntable, and someone who looks a lot like the young lady giving you the come-hither look on this jacket will slip out of something comfortable (already half accomplished) and happily join you in some reproductive behavior. (Hey, you think they were going to try and sell this thing by putting a big picture of balding frogface band leader Norrie Paramor on the jacket? I suppose they could have gone with the featured vocalist, opera singer Patricia Clark, the Glasgow soprano who voice-doubled the arias for Heather Sears in Terence Fisher's 1962 film "The Phantom of the Opera" (Herbert Lom as The Phantom, Ian Wilson as The Dwarf.) But believe us, this cover girl ain't that Patricia Clark. (In fairness, McHugh's "I'm in the Mood for Love" is a pretty good song -- though Julie London's 1955 version might have been more to the current point. (Jerry Lewis also sang it to Stella Stevens in "The Nutty Professor," 1963, though the classic version is probably still that of Little Rascals Darla and Alfalfa, 1935.) States "Produced for the U.S.A by Dave Dexter, Jr." . . . when he wasn't busy slicing up and playing "Mix-n-match" with selected tracks from various Beatles albums. So -- having rejected Eric Burdon & The Animals, Eric Clapton & The Yardbirds, Graham Nash & The Hollies, AND the first four Beatles hit singles, this was the kind of English music Mr. Dexter and Capitol figured Americans would go for? Nice cover girl, though -- uncredited, as usual. Reduced from $32. Cover photo of uncredited vixen by George Jerman (illustratore).…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Atlantic 45 rpm vinyl rock 'n roll / R&B "single," 45-1144, vinyl near-mint but with the labels moderately soiled. Originally the Harlem Queens, the Bobbettes' first lyrics for "Mr. Lee" made fun of the teacher, who they didn't like, at PS 109 in Spanish Harlem. Atlantic executives insisted on more upbeat lyrics (Hey, it was 1957. These days, they worry about Buffy or Riff Randell blowing up the whole damn school) and their first release became their biggest hit, reaching No. 6 on the Billboard Pop singles chart and spending four weeks at No. 1 on the R&B chart. (Although we still think "The Harlem Queens" was a better group name.) This disc now reduced from $21.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 10-inch "Long Playing" (mono) vinyl LP, Capitol H-513 with purple labels, vinyl "very good" or better," which demonstrates that Capitol (and Miss Morse) were offering rock 'n roll records before anyone had even settled on a name for the genre. Here, Ella Mae (who was featured on Capitol's first-ever release, "Cow-cow Boogie") offers "Have Mercy Baby," "Rock Me All Night Long," Jesse Stone's "Money Honey," four others. Vinyl plays through nicely with an occasional click or pop. This is early rock 'n roll with no audible guitar -- main instrumental backing is by piano and acoustic bass with an occasional wailing sax. Miss Ella Mae can really belt them out, however -- even if it's hard to keep a straight face when a set of back-up singers that could have been working for Johnny Mann or Sing Along With Mitch contribute their occasional scripted "bop-shoo-wop." Grade the jacket, with some tape adhesions near the top edge, "very good" as well. This 10-inch album has been known to catalog at $400 -- we started at $26, now reduced to $10.50.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl gatefold stereo Calypso record album, Recording Artist Sparrow, Calypso Carnival RA 1005 S, "very good" vinyl in a near-mint gatefold cardboard jacket. Apparently the final album of the late pianist/ band leader Bert Inniss. Guitarist/vocalist Sparrow offers "Treat She Nice," "Bois Bande," a new version of "Congo Man," "Half-Baked Duck," "Shake de Ting," etc. Reduced from $87.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Pair of RCA Victor "Red Seal" 10-inch, 78 rpm shellac (we presume) records in original cardboard album, discs 10-1412 and 10-1413, near-mint records in a very-good cardboard jacket with some modest soiling and rub to corners. The Cantata was featured in the short-lived 1942 patriotic Broadway review "Of V We Sing." The show ran two months, closed, and the piece slipped into obscurity until revived by Merrill (of the Metropolitan Opera, but nonetheless a Dodgers fan), here, in 1948. George Kleinsinger (1914-1982) is better known as the co-author (along with Paul Tripp) of "Tubby the Tuba." Reduced from $75.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 10-inch, 33-1/3 rpm, long-playing vinyl record (Christy's first and most celebrated), near mint vinyl in a very-good-plus original cardboard jacket (to which someone has penned the tiny number "2984" in blue ink to bottom corner of rear panel), Capitol High Fidelity (mono) H516. Inner "Insert This End" paper sleeve is also original. A tiny amount of rub near top of jacket front panel; see scans. The unusual offerings include "Lonely House" (credited to Kurt Weil-Langston Hughes); "I'll Take Romance" (Oscar Hammerstein-Ben Oakland); "A Stranger Called the Blues" (Mel Torme-Robert Wells); "I Should Care" (Weston-Stordahl-Cahn), three others. Jazz vocals / vocalist. Catalogs $60; here reduced from $32. …

No Binding. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Not a book but a 10-inch, 78 rpm record, Capitol No. 163 from 1944, the shellac in "very good" condition. The "Barrelhouse Boogie" stylings of Ella Mae Morse -- who was featured on Capitol's first-ever release, "Cow-cow Boogie" -- often crossed over into proto-rock 'n roll, though we wouldn't apply that term to this outing. ("Invitation to the Blues" is credited to Roberts-Fisher-Gershwin; "The Patty Cake Man" to Roy -- not Louis -- Jordan, who we believe also co-wrote "I'm Gonna Move to the Outskirts of Town," which is the blues, surely.) Reduced from $16.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm Stereo vinyl LP. Vocalion VL 73781, very-good-plus vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket which has been opened but which still wears its original shrink-wrap. Apparently a 1968 stereo re-release of his 1959 "Big Songs for Little People," featuring "Over the Rainbow," "When You Wish Upon a Star," etc. Reduced from $25.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "High Fidelity" (mono) vinyl record album, Columbia Masterworks gray label "six eyes" ML 5088, near mint vinyl with previous owner's address label to the label, in a "good" cardboard jacket which still retains its original gloss and would have graded much higher save that previous owner slapped a piece of masking tape along the top edge, and then wrote his name to verso in red marker. The doe-eyed Ms. Greco sings in French -- including L'Ombre, Les Dames de la Poste, Tu me dirais, Les Cloches, Dieu est negre, Coin de rue, etc. -- while rather literal English translations of the lyrics appear to rear of jacket. Reduced from $20.…

No Binding. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is not a book but a 10-inch, 78 rpm, heavy shellac record, Victor Orthophonic Recording 22079, in very-good-plus condition. Released in both a silent and a talkie version, the 1929 film "The Trespasser" (produced by Joseph P. Kennedy!) was a hit for Swanson, garnering her an Academy Award nomination, but unfortunately her only really successful talkie till "Sunset Boulevard" (1950.) RCA purchased the Victor Talking Machine Co. from Eldridge Johnson for a reputed $40 million in 1929 (Johnson put his profits into book and manuscript collecting, bless him), and records bearing the designation "Radio-victor Corporation of America" (later RCA Victor) appeared for only a limited time. The "VE" on the label stands for "Victor electrical" recording, which replaced acoustic recording in 1925. Reduced from $25. …
