Description
Here's the UNIVERSITY SIX, yet another California Ramblers iteration, playing two out-and-out hot jazz numbers on what was normally a staid, commercial label, Harmony:
"I WISH I COULD SHIMMY LIKE MY SISTER KATE" and "BEALE STREET BLUES" abound with uncompromisingly torrid solos by the likes of ADRIAN ROLLINI (bass saxophone), BOBBY DAVIS (clarinet), TOMMY DORSEY (trombone) and CHELSEA QUEALEY (trumpet). No vocals! It's amazing they got away with this. Maybe because the session was Christmas week - December 27, 1926 - and the record company gave them a present!
This original 1927 Harmony 414-H is in clean EE- condition. A few scratches.
*****
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.
