Lou Ragland " I Travel Alone " Amy Issue
For sale Lou Ragland " I travel alone " RARE AMY issue . £450 This record would normally be around £900 mark , however the label has lifted slightly at the bottom [ see scan ] and there is some cue burn at the start , plus a little hiss as the record plays .The flip side " Big Wheel " plays perfectly and the label is clean .I've attached a sound file from the actual record , so you can listen to it . If interested , please PM me .Paypal at eddie@hubbard09.freeserve.co.uk or cheque , cash etc .Best wishes ,Eddie lou_ragland.mp3

Rare Uk Albums
Following on from the UK '45's thread ,as an album collector I'd be interested in what are considered the rarest and best UK albums ? Two to throw into the hat from my own collection " Chartbusters USA " a great compilation of Okeh sides on UK Columbia , includes Walter Jackson " Where have all the flowers gone " and The Artistics " This heart of mine ". My copy came from John Abbeys collection when his ex -wife discarded them to a junk shop. Also Major Lance " The Rhythm of " UK Columbia , never seem to see this around , bought mine off Brian Rae at Wigan for £10 in the 70's .Any more suggestions , there must be loads ...........Cheers ,Eddie
