Description
A RARITY by the great blues singer from Texas, BLIND LEMON JEFFERSON. He does "CRAWLIN' BABY BLUES" and "PNEUMONIA BLUES." This record was made at his last session for Paramount, released in December, 1929.
This original 1929 "Race" Paramount 12880 is nominally in G+ condition. The playback is noisy, with a lot of surface noise. However, Lemon's voice and guitar still come through strongly.
PHOTOS: Blind Lemon Jefferson by 1) Unknown Paramount Photographer; 2) Tony Mostrom, 3) Robert Crumb.
*****
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.
