Description
HERE'S the inimitable LOUIS ARMSTRONG (AND HIS ORCHESTRA), in his runaway best-selling 1931 hit record, "I'LL BE GLAD WHEN YOU'RE DEAD, YOU RASCAL YOU," featuring his widely imitated vocal*. Louis' famous theme song makes its first appearance on the flip, "WHEN IT'S SLEEPY TIME DOWN SOUTH." Louis is in his usual great form on both sides, fueled by Swiss Kriss and Reefers!
This original 1931 "Electric" OKeh 41504 is in quite serviceable V++ condition.
*See the young Sammy Davis, Jr. in his 1933 short, "Rufus Jones for President" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DICgr6m7HOA. 5:00!
*****
These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing! My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value. I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all. If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will! Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.” I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
