Description

EWING NUNN LP:
Don Ewell
YELLOW DOG BLUES –
Original Audiophile AP-66 Red Vinyl Saukville –
VERY RARE & FINE!




A very fine and rare prize here, recorded by Ewing Nunn, one of the finest recordists of this day or any.

It features the Don Ewell Quartet playing YELLOW DOG BLUES, GEORGIA BO BO, NEW ORLEANS HOP SCOP BLUES, OLE MISS, BLUES MY NAUGHTY SWEETY GIVES TO ME, and ATLANTA BLUES, among others.

For those unfamiliar, Ewell was one of the very best pianists in the stride tradition, who always loved playing a Bosendorfer for its added bottom range.  For those also unfamiliar with the fine recordings of Mr. Ewing Nunn, please expect, even in mono, only the finest capturing of tonalities here. He was not only among the first recordists ever to use a very small diaphragm microphone (one capable of capturing sound much as your ears perceive it), he also formulated his own vinyl compounds, his original releases, as this one is, made of red vinyl he concocted himself.

The man hardly missed a beat and this record will show you that. Utterly captivating, a marvel, really, in the listening, and getting awfully hard to come by.

This copy has a jacket with minor shelf and a seam split on bottom easily repaired with tape.  Inside, is the original Saukville red vinyl platter in near-mint playing condition.

A vinyl treasure to be cherished.

For other fine records, TAS picks and hard-to-finds, please see my complete list of offerings here on eBay.

Shipping and handling is $5 for up to 5 LPs shipped within the States. Internationally, $15 via airmail for the first LP, $3 each thereafter. (Canada is half that.) Boxes over 4 lbs., add another $6, because First Class is no longer available at that weight, just Priority Mail. Note, too, boxed sets of LPs require more postage.
