Live from Stephen Foster Memorial, White Springs, Fla. 32096
Abner Jay
Six Medley's Hymns and Spirituals
Mono
The album is written by marker and the back states: "Abner Jay, Sings and Plays, American Classics. Abner has been singing and playing thse same songs since 1926. He plays and sings these songs in the original style. A ONE MAN BAND, hambone and bone layer. His banjo dates back to 1748. He plays banjo, drums, sings and play harmonica all at the same time. This record is a true collectors item. It will be worth a lots of money when Abner is Dead. Abner say he is jult like ole black Joe, my head is bending low. Abner is the same to this country as Toscanni is to his country, A CLASSIC. Abner loves the ole Swanee Water. He feels he is to ole now to lay down on his belly and drink from the Ole Swanee like he use to. So now he drinks the water from a half gallon fruit jar. He drinks about a gallon of Swanee water per day. He claims this is why his voice is so deep and low, also the secret of him being the father of 16 young'uns. May God Bless You."
I do not know if Abner Jay is still alive, but this is one of the neatest music collectibles I've seen. There is a ball point dedication and signature on the front. It was this way when I bought it from an estate sale. Most of the records in the collection were from the 60's and 70's. The former owner was elderly. There is no way of knowing if the signature is genuine so I did not say it was signed.
Hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I did.
