Title: Re: The Great Ben E. King Post by: davethebirdman on May 03, 2015, 02:36:01 pm For the first time in five years or so I changed all the records on my Wurly 1900 in honour of the great man himself. Had to search through 4,000 45's ands then print up new labels. Best part of as whole day. Glad I did though. Title: Re: The Great Ben E. King Post by: Creighton on May 03, 2015, 10:56:26 pm Dave,
What a fun day. That is a strong collection of 45's. Creighton |
