IT IS FROST TEXAS TORNADO BLUES, & SEEN BETTER DAYS......OTHER RECORD ARTIST ARE ,"THE MISSISSIPPI SHEAKS",SAM CHATMON, ARMENTER CHATMON aka (BO CARTER) AND LONNIE CHATMON. TEXAS WORKED EARLY IN HIS CARRER WITH BLIND LEMON JEFFERSON AND OTHERS. THIS RECORD WAS CUT APRIL 9th 1934. THE "A" SIDE SONG, FROST TEXAS TORNADO BLUES DEALS WITH A TORNADO THAT HIT THE TOWN OF FROST ON MAY SIX AND IT KILLED 65 IN THAT SMALL TOWN OF A POPULATION OF ONLY 648.  I FOUND ONE SITE ON THE NET THAT SAID TEXAS ALEXANDER SPENT TIME IN PRISON FOR THE KILLING OF HIS WIFE.  RECORD IS VERY WORN AS IS THE LABEL, SEE PICTURES. THERE IS SMALL EDGE CHIPS AS SEEN IN ONE OF THE PICTURES OF THE EDGE. PLAYS START TO FINISH WITH NO SKIPS OR REPEATS BUT HAS VERY HEAVY SURFACE NOISE FROM WEAR. ON THE VJM SCALE I GIVE IT ONLY A " G- . STILL A VERY RARE HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION RECORD AND CAN BE USED AS A FILLER UNTILL THAT BETTER ONE COMES ALONG IF IT  EVER DOES. BUYER PAYS $4.00 S/H IN THE 48 STATES ALL OTHERS PAY ACTUAL SHIPPING. WISH IT WAS BETTER BUT IT HAS BEEN USED FOR YEARS.  PAYPAL ONLY PLEASE.
