December 14, 2024 Record of the Day

Among the many one-hit wonders of the early Rock N Roll era was Phil Phillips. His giant hit “Sea of Love” reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1959 and spent 3 months on the Billboard top-40. The song was used as the theme for the 1989 Al Pacino movie, “Sea of Love.” Most copies of the single were sold on Mercury records in 1959 and worth up to $40.00. However, the original release was on the Khoury’s record label and worth up to $750.00 today. Both versions are shown here.
