Description

ARTIST:  Jack Hart and His Dance Band
LABEL:   Celebrity 4384
TITLES:  I'm Singing My Way 'Round The World / Stein Song
CONDITION:  E-, few light scuffs and light scratches, plays fabulously. While this is the 'lesser copy' that previously changed hands amongst elite British jazz collectors, in my opinion I don't think it really needed to be upgraded! This copy is on my Youtube channel, exponent_of_sock, and I didn't have to do that much to make it sound great!
DESCRIPTION: Extremely rare and hot side which is essentially a Elizalde outfit featuring Jack Hart, Norman Payne and Les Norman, who plays a great alto sax solo, Arrangement most probably by Fred Elizalde, The outfit was put together for the 1930 ill fated 'The Intimate Revue' which gained notoriety as the shortest west end run of all time, lasting just one night. this issue, recorded March 1930 features the most beautiful hot Bix like solo from Payne and a fine Alto sax performance.

78 GRADING:  We use the universally recognized VJM (Vintage Jazz Mart) 78 rpm system in grading our 78s with some streamlining as noted,  eliminating some of the hair splitting on records graded V- and below (G+, G, G-, F).  

E+

Highest grade used. A record that might have minor handling marks but has no visible signs of wear.  N, N- and E+ records will all be graded as E+.


E
Record has slight signs of handling and use but groove wear should be barely detectable and grooves should still be glossy and black. 

E-
Light groove wear with grey rubbing and light circular gray grooves starting to appear, but record should still retain glossy black grooves for almost all of the surface.

V+
Grey wear, handling and groove wear more apparent, but much of the groove area will still have black.

V
Record is approaching an overall grey surface with uniform wear, but will still play well even though the level of surface noise and distortion could be distracting.

V-
Record has wear throughout, and was subject to continual playing to wring more sound out of it, so even the grey is in a more advanced state of deterioration with groove walls disappearing.

P
This grade generally indicates poor condition on a good title.
