Full item description

Alan Tam (the Principal) has countless classic hits,among which "Drunk on the Street" is considered a hidden gem by many fans and audiophiles. For seasoned vinyl collectors,while officially released versions commonly found on the market certainly have their listening value,the white label vinyl record of Alan Tam's "Drunk on the Street" is the true collector's rarity.

"White label records" were typically non-commercial promotional items (Promo Copies) distributed by record companies to radio DJs,media,or music critics before an album's official release. These out-of-print Cantonese promotional vinyl records were pressed in extremely limited quantities and were usually among the first pressings using the original metal master,often resulting in the fullest sound quality and dynamic range closest to the master tape. Therefore,in the second-hand vinyl record market,the value and appreciation potential of white label vinyl records are far higher than common retail versions. We specialize in top cash appraisal of out-of-print white label records,offering the most reasonable quotations that align with market trends for your valuable collections.

Four Key Factors Affecting the Buyback Price of "Drunk on the Street" White Label Records

Many sellers wonder how the buyback price of old vinyl records is determined. For high-value white label records like "Drunk on the Street," we have a strict and transparent appraisal standard:

We evaluate buyback prices based on the international Goldmine standard (M/NM/VG+/VG/G),comprehensively assessing the cover,disc surface,completeness of accessories,and playback condition. Learn more about the detailed grading standards

Why Choose Us for Your Rare Vinyl.

Tips for Preserving Vinyl Before Selling (to Ensure Best Valuation)

To maximize the buyback price of your old records,we recommend paying attention to the following daily preservation details before collection:

  • Store Vertically at All Times: Never stack vinyl records horizontally,as this can easily cause irreversible warping,severely affecting playback and value.
  • Control Temperature and Humidity: Humid climates can lead to yellowing of covers and mold on disc surfaces. Store records in a cool,dry place,away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
  • Avoid Improper Cleaning: If the disc surface has dust,please leave it as is for our professional handling,or only lightly brush with a professional anti-static carbon fiber brush. Never use ordinary tissue paper,tap water,or liquids containing chemical solvents to wipe,as this can damage the delicate groove tracks.

Drunk on the Street (Lyrics) Alan Tam

Drunk on the street,a wine bottle tossed into the air
As if to shatter love into pieces
Alcohol adds to the bitterness,feigning ease for now
Just wanting to avoid your lovely face

I retreat,deep affection is cold
I refuse,the arms still open wide

Forget this sorrowful silhouette,yesterday's laughter
Forget that touch of your tenderness
May the contact of hearts end from this moment

Forget these slightly wet eyes,the feigned laughter
Forget that look of your tenderness
If your heart has already changed,please don't tell me,who wants to hear it

Forget this sorrowful silhouette,yesterday's laughter
Forget that touch of your tenderness
