Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "Hi-fi" (mono) vinyl jazz vocal album, Liberty LRP 3105. very-good-plus vinyl in a "good-only" cardboard jacket which shows considerable wrinkling from dampness to right side of the front panel (stamped "Promotional /…Not for Sale" in red to verso.) Miss London offers Rodgers & Hammerstein's "That's For Me," Rodgers & Hart's "Nobody's Heart," Noel Coward's "Mad About the Boy," the Gershwins' "My Man's Gone Now," and producer Bobby Troup's "Well, Sir," and "Just the Way I Am." London (1926-2000), a favorite WWII pin-up girl and 1945 graduate of the Hollywood Professional High School, was discovered by talent agent Sue Carol (wife of actor Alan Ladd), while working as an elevator operator. (Honest.) Known for her sultry, smoky voice (literally -- she was a chain smoker), she was named most popular American female vocalist for 1955, 1956, and 1957 by Billboard magazine. Subject of a 1957 cover story in Life magazine, she was quoted saying, "It's only a thimbleful of a voice, and I have to use it close to the microphone. But it is a kind of oversmoked voice, and it automatically sounds intimate." London performed her million-selling 1955 hit "Cry Me a River" in the 1956 film "The Girl Can't Help It" and the recording gained later attention in the films "Passion of Mind" (2000) and "V for Vendetta" (2006), though Miss London will of course always be best remembered for her 128 episodes as Rampart General Hospital's Chief ER Nurse Dixie McCall in the TV series "Emergency!" (1972-1979), a role in which she was cast by her ex-husband (and executive producer) Jack Webb, playing opposite her then-husband, jazz musician Bobby Troup (producer of this album), who lent his talents as emergency room physician Dr. Joe Early. Reduced from $12. Color photography by Garrett-Howard (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Not a book but a 12-inch, vinyl, 33-1/3 rpm "Long Play" (monaural) LP, RCA Victor LPM 1192, white dog at top of label, near-mint vinyl in a very-good or better cardboard jacket. Features "American Patrol," "PEnnsylvania 6-5000," "In the Mood," "Tuxedo Junction,"…"St. Louis Blues," "Moonlight Serenade," "King Porter Stomp," five others. As these tracks were recorded 1939-1942, the original releases will of course have been on 78 rpm shellac. People in their 40s and 50s grow nostalgic for the music to which they danced when they were in their teens and twenties. But those who danced to this music between 1937 and 1960, if they're still with us at all, are now 75 or older. Which means the stuff is now plentiful in thrift shops and estate sales, rendering the "catalog values" of such vinyl, themselves, exercises in nostalgia. Elvis values are also falling; your Beatles records will likely be next. One of these years someone will make a movie and a follow-up TV show about "the home front" in the early forties, and the jitterbug will again be all the rage . . . for a while. Take heed: By then, most of this vinyl will be gone. Reduced from $21.

Jacket verso advertises that these eight "Blues Fox… Trots" were also still available as of the 1950 release date as a set of four 78s, "Package CP-509." Herman "and his Orchestra" (the Thundering Herd -- along with many other expensive Big Bands -- disbanded in 1946, though Hal Webman's jacket notes here report these cuts were actually recorded "between 1939 and 1941") offer eight cuts with "Blues" in the title. "Dupree Blues" is credited to "White," though in fact "Dupree Blues" was almost certainly by Blind Willie Walker; Georgia White's song is usually listed as "New Dupree Blues." Herman, best known as a singer and clarinet-player, here offers a couple of solos on alto sax on "Blues on Parade." Arranger Joe Bishop (whose "Blue Prelude" is also offered here) on flugelhorn. This jazz LP catalogs $70; now reduced from $35.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: 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 g…otten 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 (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: 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. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "New Orthophonic" High Fidelity (mono) vinyl record album, RCA LPM-1753, near-mint vinyl in a near-mint cardboard jacket (redhead in a red leotard does some kind of fan dance on the cratered surface of the moon -- faint tidema…rk barely visible at lower left corner of jacket rear panel.) Given the "Lost in Space" graphics, we're surprised to find the musical lineup features such standards as Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine" & "Night And Day," Johnny Mercer's "That Old Black Magic," "Nature Boy," "Poinciana" and "It Had to Be You," with the addition of "Te Quiero Dijiste." But hey, it was 1958 -- everybody was still waiting for some better psychedelics, right? (Reduced from $31.).

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: 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. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Not a book but a hard-to-find original 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm vinyl LP record from 1959, very-good-plus vinyl (some track wear) in a very-good cardboard jacket. Rear of cardboard jacket moderately soiled, and someone has placed a 4-inch black "X" with grea…se pencil at top right. Front of jacket lovely with full original luster; depicts the red-haired Miss Russell smoking in bed. Disc retains its original soft plastic inner wrapper. Tracks include "The Thrill Is Gone," "You've Changed," "Prelude to a Kiss," "Caravan," "Lonely Town," and of course Willard Robison's "Don't Smoke in Bed." Miss Russell had some early singing success in wartime films of the 1940s but was then, curiously, relegated to dubbing the singing voices of a number of other Hollywood actresses. She was also a success on TV's "Garroway at Large" in the early 1950s, yet this announces itself as her first LP. (There would eventually be three.) Not a book, but a long-playing high-fidelity (mono, monaural) 33-1/3rd rpm vinyl record from 1959. (Copies have sold recently Online from $52 to $132.) Here reduced from $62.
