Fleetwood sports LPs - any collectors?

Post by Citizen »

Some of you might remember Fleetwood Records out of Boston as a custom-recording outfit that, among other niches, produced documentary albums about various sports teams from about 1967-81. The company also did some auto-racing LPs and other miscellaneous albums, but it was best known for titles that covered successful seasons of various pro and college teams. It was hard to miss their ads if you read Football Digest and similar magazines of the era.

I have a handful of these, and they are pretty fun to listen to if only to hear the original radio calls from memorable games. Anyone else?

I've tried to list the sports LPs (with catalog numbers) that Fleetwood released in its heyday. Some might be missing, so corrections and additions are welcome.
