Description: This is California R&B doo wop group The Jewels (featuring Rudy Torrence) singing "Hearts Can Be Broken" on Imperial 5351 from 1955. This doo wop record looks VG++ with minor surface markings but plays in NM condition and comes in an Imperial Records company sleeve. The picture sleeve is custom sleeve that was made in Canada or England and is in MINT condition. This is a one-off sleeve that was not mass produced. This item comes in a clear, resealable, poly-vinyl protective sleeve with a cardboard backer separating the record from the picture sleeve. If "Hearts Can Be Broken" sounds a lot like "Hearts Of Stone", that's because Rudy Torrence wrote both songs. While The Jewels had no luck with "Hearts Of Stone" it was eventually covered successfully by Otis Williams and The Charms and likewise by The Fontane Sisters. U.S. postage and handling is $4.75 on this item. International customers should email me first for a shipping quote. I grade in direct sunlight or under a high intensity lamp to assure the most accurate grading possible. However, you have my unconditional guarantee that I will take the records back if you think that the records are not as stated. My reputation is what has kept me in business for 45 years. If you win multiple auctions, I will combine packaging to save you as much postage as possible. I ship with sturdy cardboard packaging to protect your records. Please review my feedback from previously satisfied customers. I have been buying and selling records for 45 years now and as of February 2024 I am celebrating 25 years on eBay.
