OTHER ISSUES ACCESSING ANYTHING ON MY WEBSITE, PLEASE TELL ME so I can
remedy it, and help you see what you want to see. If it is needed, I can send you the needed information via email.
ALL List #93 DOCUMENTS have now been updated, with all sold items now removed!
PUNK RECORD LIST HAS NOW BEEN ENTIRELY UPDATED!
"VINYL VAULT" (ARCHIVES) now have a 40% discount, formerly 30%.
"OUT-OF-SEASON" ORDERING METHODS are in effect until the new upcoming list in spring 2020.
ALL BUYERS please write first, and I'll tell you what I have (including
shipping). If you are a CANADIAN/OVERSEAS buyer, I make sure that the weight of your order doesn't go
"A LITTLE OVER" a weight "increment", which can add much more postage for the sake of one or two cheap records.
AND PLEASE, ALWAYS, include your POSTAL (SHIPPING) ADDRESS ON YOUR ORDER. IT WILL EVENTUALLY BE NEEDED (TO SEND RECORDS). PEOPLE DO MOVE, and I want to be assured that your records are being mailed savely and will not get lost.
FRANK MERRILL///SATURDAY NIGHT RECORDS, 1333 West Devon Avenue - PMB 501, Chicago IL 60660 U.S.A. *NEW ADDRESS*
I've
been renting post office boxes for 49 years, almost nonstop - a short
hiatus in 1970 only. The Post Office has always left
A REMINDER about box rent, at every P. O. Box I've had since
1969. The Chicago Post Office is an entirely
different matter, though: First they never left me a notice that
my box had expired (which they are required to do) so I didn't know;
then I had to get a NEW P. O. BOX and some of THAT mail was sent back
for no reason. Therefore I am not confident I will get your
mail at the Post Office, so FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, I
AM DESERTING THE POST OFFICE. I rented a private mail box at a
UPS Store (thus the PMB, which is required in the address), and I am
much more confident I'll get my mail reliably again.

[CLICK HERE] ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS, TIPS, SUGGESTIONS - I'VE DISABLED THIS LINK UNTIL 2020. In the "off season" the instructions are to simply write to me and tell me what you want, and I will respond.
PLEASE, ALWAYS, PUT *SHIPPING ADDRESS* on ANY mail/email.
This is CURRENT for 2019/early 2020: ALL LISTED RECORDS ARE NOW 30% DISCOUNT, except for some RED items (at full price, no discount) as noted on various documents!
[CLICK HERE] HORROR, MONSTERS, HALLOWEEN -
This is a large section. Not as large as in 2018, but still large
because I put together all novelty records left over from lists prior
to #79, as well as some from elsewhere as I sorted other stuff.
[CLICK HERE] WAR, VIETNAM, OIL CRISIS, HOSTAGES, SOLDIERS/PEACETIME, COLD WAR, ETC.
There was enough interest shown in these in 2018, that I am continuing
with this section. IT MAY NEVER BE THIS LARGE AGAIN but I guess that
depends whether I eventually list the stuff in my collection (which is
100% available).
[CLICK HERE] COUNTRY AND WESTERN (pre-1965)...AND TRUCKIN' (all eras) - You
will see a LOT of Fifties, and definitely you'll have fun here if you
collect this genre. Except for the TRUCKIN' records, almost everything is older
than 1963.
[CLICK HERE] MOVIE/TV MUSIC, PERSONALITY - This section is fairly small, but there are some pretty strange PS items in here, etc.
[CLICK HERE] POP, EASY LISTENING, JAZZ - This is probably the smallest section of this genre that I will ever run on any list...but still look.
[CLICK HERE] NOVELTY OF ALL TYPES, TRIBUTES, POLITICS, BREAK-INS, BEATLES, ETC. - If
you also consider the separate HORROR and WAR sections above to be
novelty, I have no doubt this section is one of the largest lists of novelty
ever put on a sales catalog in world history. Some were "filed" there for decades and they
turned out to be good instrumentals, etc. and usually those
were moved to Nonchart. THE BEATLES NOVELTY SECTION includes plenty of garage, surf, etc. You
can have a LOT of fun here! This section retains the usual categorical headings.
which I've been using on the last ten lists or so. If
you have a want list
for categories in this heading (EXCEPT Beatles and Break-Ins, where
I've now or last year listed my entire collection), please send
it. I have *at least 20,000* novelty records that will NEVER be listed, so please go ahead and ask.
[CLICK HERE] "FIRST" (ORIGINAL) LABELS FOR "HOT 100" CHARTED HITS - This section is shrinking, because now it’s entirely repeated records – WITH SLASHED PRICES!!! What
you couldn’t afford last year, you can probably try now. (And the listed prices are also discounted 30% now.)
[CLICK HERE] "BILLBOARD-CHARTED" RECORDS/ARTISTS **ALL CHARTS EXCEPT COUNTRY...TONS OF SOUL!!** - EVERYBODY SHOULD LOOK! THIS
MAY BE THE BEST LIST OF CHARTED HITS ON A SALES CATALOG IN HUMAN
HISTORY. More than 3,500 titles are listed on here! Almost
all of is "MINT STUFF" earlier than the 1970s! Some rather surprising rare records actually
charted, especially when I added in
SOUL/R&B and BUBBLING UNDER.
I’ve kept this section extraordinarily
heavy with Bubbling Under, for those collecting that chart. Not giving label/number
(because you already know it, generally) allowed me to list an
additional 3,000 titles. This section will always be large on all
future lists!
[CLICK HERE] HUGE NONCHART SECTION - sold items have now been removed.
Note that nearly all records ARE DISCOUNTED 30%. Some records in
RED are NOT discounted, as described on the document.
[CLICK HERE] CHRISTMAS AND OTHER HOLIDAYS AND CELEBRATIONS - This is one of my large section! I've never listed most of these before, because parts of my COLLECTION
are on it, F through M. If
you have a want list
for categories in this heading, please send it, because I have a few
thousand Christmas records which will NEVER be listed.
####################################################################################################
ALL
RECORDS in the "PUNK" selection BELOW **WILL NEVER BE ON ANY PAPER CATALOG**, and NO DISCOUNT ON THESE.
[CLICK HERE] PUNK/NEW WAVE/POWERPOP/ALTERNATIVE - More than 1,100 listings. THIS SALE LIST HAS BEEN ENTIRELY REPRICED as of late 2019, with nearly all prices reduced.
####################################################################################################
"ARCHIVES DISCOUNT SECTION"///more than 20,000 RECORDS FOR SALE///DISCOUNT is NOW 40%:
NONE OF THESE ARE ON PAPER CATALOGS, and will not be unless I have later duplication.
[CLICK HERE] GOSPEL AND RELIGIOUS 45's -
You will find about 500 or 600 records in this section. Contrary
to my usual approach, THESE are listed by LABEL instead of by artist.
[CLICK HERE] THE VINYL VAULT: 45RPM ARCHIVE, ALL TYPES!! - This link will take you to a page which has LINKS to AROUND 20,000 MORE RECORDS of all types!
No
additional documents have been added to the Vinyl Vault section since
2016. A premium Charted section may be added in 2020. These documents "closely" reflect what
is here, probably around 90% are available now.
As I intend to offer vintage records only until around 2022, the
enormous work required to reflect 100% what's available is no longer
warranted, and this is also the reason I have increased the discount
percentage from 30% to 40% in this enormous section.
