GRAAL RECORDS AUCTION (#157)

Dear collectors,

Our New Auction is now running.

Closing Date will be Thursday 14th May 2026 at 20h00 GMT.

We apply the 10% rule which allows you to win a record under the maximum offer :

if you are making a 150 euros offer on a record and that the offer below yours is of 100 euros, you will win the record for 100 euros + 10 % (10 euros),

so 110 euros instead of 150 euros, your maximum offer…. In case of two equal bids, the earliest offer sent will win the record…

24 hours before closing date, we will show on the auction page the current leading bids for each record (and not the highest offers) …

Send your offers by email. This is a serious auction, bid with confidence.

Scorcher (SS 1011)  USA  1983   EX

what a tune !! Dean Fraser at his debut career, when he was not yet known as a saxophonist, but as a singer…

his two first songs were concrete castle king and a few goes a boasting,

which was recorded a few years after CCK, probably in the late 70’s for calvin cameron from the Uhuru label.

Though, the Uhuru pressing of this title is from the mid/late 80’s so that this issue is the first known print.

this is deep roots music !
