Description
This super rare record grades about E/E+ condition. Probably store stock. Comes with original Bullet sleeve..One of the last living classic postwar bluesmen and this is is his almost impossible to find first record in about mint condition!!!
Some years ago I met B.B. and showed this record to him and his road manager pulled out a big wad of cash and wanted to buy it on the spot...
However, I held on to it and here it is today to be offered to some lucky blues collector for Christmas.
Doubt if there are very many of these around and certainly not in this condition....Recorded 1949 in Memphis...
These are my grades ,E-,VG++,VG+,VG,VG-,G+......Highest to lowest for 78s.I only use E or E+ when the record looks new and unplayed or perfect....E- or indeed VG++ are usually very close to perfect and will be more than satisfactory to discerning collectors.
All 78s will be packed between 4 cardboard squares and boxed professionally with insulation to guarantee safe delivery.
Our excellent shipping and packaging will continue to be of the highest standard.
