V/A - Teenage Treats 5, 6 and 7 LPs

With this post the Teenage Treats series is completed. Your mission, should you chose to accept it, is to acquire original copies of all the records featured in this series. 10 LPs, 12 songs each means you'll only need to find 120 records (a few less actually, since there are some repeats). You can find track lists and the original sources for each here. Good luck!
