CHICAGO BLUES FUNK SOUL 45: LITTLE OSCAR I Tried/The Message SUPREME BLUES

LITTLE OSCAR I Tried/The Message, SUPREME BLUES 1018. Both sides mid- or uptempo and funky  with wah-wah rhythm, horns, and good lead blues guitar. “The Message” is a political/social plea for togetherness and understanding: “Rich complain about the poor doin’ wrong, y’all,  listen, what do they know about  being hungry/Rats on the floor, roaches in my food, Mama’s in the kitchen singin’ the low-down blues.”  The Supreme Blues label was an enterprise of Chicago DJ E. Rodney Jones and his son. Mint unplayed copy from distributor stock.

See grading codes below.

I have many more records listed at Bluesoterica.com (Mail Order page) and if you are in Kansas City, see my bins at Holy Cow Market & Music, 3109 Gillham Road, Sundays from noon till 5:00 p.m.

Combined shipping available on multiple purchases. 

GRADING:

LPs, EPs and 45s are graded M (mint), NM (near mint), VG+, VG (very good), VG-, G+, G (good), G-, F (fair), and P (poor). A VG+ record may have some visible scuffs and light scratches and plays well with little surface noise. Scratches on records graded VG and VG- may be deep enough to feel with your fingernail, or there may be scratches throughout that cause surface noise. On records in the G+, G and G- range the level of the music is still above the surface noise caused by scuffs and scratches. Surface noise is as loud as the music on records graded F and louder than the music on P records. 

Jackets graded VG+ have only slight wear; jackets graded VG are more worn but still intact unless defects are noted. G jackets show definite damage and F and P jackets are probably falling apart. Splits, markings, cut corners, and other defects will be noted.

[+ and – denote in-between grades. Grades with a slash in between indicate the condition of Side A/Side B.]
