Title: Murry Wilson song on British 78 on eBay Post by: Beach Head on October 25, 2008, 03:23:21 PM I don't think any of our British friends have noticed this yet, as there are no bids placed.

The seller obviously doesn't know the Beach Boys connection, so it's pretty cheap. I'd bid on it myself, except that the seller only ships to the U.K. and I'm stateside.

Title: Re: Murry Wilson song on British 78 on eBay Post by: absinthe_boy on October 27, 2008, 01:12:06 PM Such a shame, to my mind, that someone keeps a record sealed after all those years....kind of like the people who collect classic cars only to garage them in air conditioned rooms, wax them occasionally and never drive them.
First thing I did when I got hold of a sealed, relatively rare 23 years old (at the time) record a number of years ago....was open and PLAY it. Someone's going to get a bargain with the Murraly-related 78. Can't be bothered myself, I have a clutch of 78's I need to evaluate and possibly put on eBay myself.
