January 12, 2026 Record of the Day

“Stormy Weather” by the Five Sharps is considered to be the most collectible Doo-wop record. Released on Jubilee Records in 1952, the record received some airplay but was soon relegated to the dustbins of record stores. But find one in the dustbins or anywhere else and you have found a record worth up to $20,000.00 today. Only 78’s, as shown here, are originals. All known 45’s are counterfeits.

(All issues, re issues and counterfeits of every record are described in detail in Mighty John’s “Record Appraisal Guide,” available in the left hand column.)
