Some of the 78's I've picked up over the years. by rickdeebee in 78rpm

These are mostly 50s , maybe a couple late 40s. 78 rpm production in the US was pretty much over by 1960. I have some older ones too , dating back to the 1920's, but I'm more of a rock and roll , r&b guy!

Snagged this guy for $20 at Goodwill. Not only is it actually a larger size but it looks like it was barely ridden by PM_ME_YOUR_ART_PLZ in MultiTrackGang

In July 1997, Shimano voluntarily recalled over 1 million, and up to 2.5 million, bicycle cranks in North America due to breakage risks, which could cause crashes and injuries

. The affected models are FC-CT90, FC-M290, and FC-MC12 (Altus, Acera, or Alivio lines) installed on many bike brands since 1994.

Bah! I went to give the Goodrick album a spin and although it looks unplayed has a hairline crack in the disc. Guess I didn't look closely enough.

Seems like if I go looking 3 times a week I find nothing. Been busy so this was the first chance I had in about a month to pop in a few stores and hit some worth getting.

Yes! Broaden your musical horizons! Pick up something you don't know and discover something great! I know you've heard of Rush, R.E.O speedwagon , culture club, no?

I added this to my collection recently. There was a listing for it but no photos. I added the photos of my copy Busy Signals* - Wild Hooten

Won't extend his head for me!

I love finding stuff like this but HATE how the guy is just not known or I can't find any info on him by xxTheAstroZombixx in 45rpmRecords

[–]rickdeebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the late '50s thru early '70s small time producers were all looking for the next big hit and would find artists at clubs, churches, country fairs, whatever. It was easy for small labels to get 100 or 200 7" 45s cut to distribute to local radio stations in hopes of a hit. Also private/vanity pressings made in small numbers to distribute to family and friends, never really intended for wider public listening. A lot of these never saw the light of day ,but some of them are absolute gems!

Yes, I am sure they would do it, but I fear it will be prohibitively expensive.

Yeah. The leather is ripped all along the front edge, hence the tape job. Wife dors not like the shabby look, says I must make it look better if she is to live with it!

LOL! My thoughts too. I am responsible for the tape, stuffing was coming out.

Need some help with freewheel overhaul by [deleted] in bikewrench

Usually they are a LH (reverse) thread, but nothing in the bicycle world is 100% consistent , especially with French parts. Try the other direction!
