Description
Little is known of the CREOLE CROONER. He made a handful of Columbia records in the late '20s and then vanished. That this is a nom du disque for Norman Clark, who was equally shadowy and who also disappeared before 1930, isn't much help. He sings, quite pleasantly:
"LIL' OL' HOME" and "STAY OUT OF THE SOUTH."
The fact is, this man barely exists. I wouldn't blame you at all for never having heard of him. He's teetering on the event horizon of human awareness. YET - thanks to this record, he comes to vivid life! There ARE worse realities than to be entertained for six minutes by the "Creole Crooner."
This original 1928 "Viva-Tonal" Columbia 1436-D is in E- condition.
*****
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.
