This site is dedicated primarily to the Sun Record Company of Memphis Tennessee. Here, I will attempt to provide information about vinyl and other recordings issued by that company and its successors, related companies and licensees.
I am an avid collector of recorded music. In addition to Sun Label related records, I also collect:
1. Recordings by American Humorist Stan Freberg;
2. Recordings of Roy Orbison;
3. “Flexi” Discs on, for example, the “Americom” or “Hip Pocket” labels;
4. The 8 LPs and 24 EPs in the "Boyfriend/Girlfriend - Petty Girl" Series from Decca Records; and
5. Recordings of Robin Lee a/k/a Roger Schenzel, Rock 'N' Roller from central Wisconsin.
I have devoted portions of this website to each of those areas of interest.
To view additional pages under the "Home" page, click on "Home" above. An additional page title will drop down. Move your cursor over it and to the right and the titles of additional sub-pages will appear. Click to select and view any of these.
To view available Sun Records, Freberg, Orbison, Flexi-Disc, Petty Girl or Robin Lee Spreadsheets, navigate to the appropriate tab with your cursor and click. A number of clickable options will be presented, as well as the option to see any other available page of Spreadsheets.
The information contained and presented in this Website has been gathered by me over more than 10 years as I have attempted to increase my knowledge of the Sun Record Co. and related and successor record labels, as well as my other areas of interest.
Some information was initially obtained from existing (but, sadly, incomplete) websites I was able to find. I don’t know if any of those sites still exist. I don’t recall their site addresses so cannot even give them any credit they may deserve.
I have attempted to be as accurate as possible in interpreting, assembling and entering this information into my various spreadsheets as I considered, at that time, I was doing this strictly for my own benefit.
After some time, I realized that the information I had collected and assembled might be of interest to others and therefore determined to set up a Website to make it available.
I must caution that I cannot guarantee the absolute accuracy of any of the information I have gathered and assembled. I have not even seen or handled any copies of some of the very scarce and collectible records in the lists I have published on this site. Information provided has been gleaned from descriptions and comments of others and I cannot vouch for the accuracy of that information. I only seek to report what I have seen.
As I thought about the website I also decided to offer interested parties some or all of the “sales” information I have gathered on a large number of eBay auctions that I have monitored over the years. When it comes to Auction results, the information I have gathered and can provide to you is taken from the Internet after the auction is complete. I, of course, would have no knowledge of whether the parties completed the sale or not, or if either party complained or requested or received any consideration if they were unhappy with the transaction in any way. If you are interested in any portion or all of this information, please contact me so we may discuss how it might be made available to you.
If you have any comments, corrections, additions, or constructive criticism to offer, please email me at Vynilphreak@gmail.com. All information submitted in a kindly spirit is welcome. In any event, I would like to hear from you so I may get some idea of the type of audience this site is appealing to.
