I don't think any of our British friends have noticed this yet, as there are no bids placed.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350112294500

This is a 78 from the mid-50s, featuring Murry Wilson's "Two Step, Side Step" as recorded by country artist Bonnie Lou.  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.

item description:
"78 single by Bonnie Lou    - Two Step Side Step and Please Don't Laugh When I Cry.

condition good/fair, plays well with with no skipping or jumping, just a few crackles here and there as you would expect from records of this age.

Item will be well packed against the rigours of the postage system.

Please contact for non UK postage. thanks"

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.

Check out the Beach Boys Starline website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.

Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

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.
