Great BECHET & NO FEETWARMERS 78 Ain’t Misbehavin’ (E)
SIDNEY BECHET & HIS NEW ORLEANS FEETWARMERS. His Master’s Voice B 9136 (UK) Ain’t Misbehavin’/Blues For You, JohnnyHere are two great 1940 sides from Sidney Bechet with a great supporting cast – Earl Hines, Baby Dodds, Rex Stewart, John Lindsay with a Herb Jeffries vocal on the ‘B’ side. ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’ has to be one of my favourite jazz performances on 78 – the fellas sound like a bunch of old-timers at a coffee ship having a good gripe session, interrupting each other constantly but complimenting each other at the same time. There is a competitive edge to this ‘summet meeting’ intertwined with a deep musical respect for each other. Check it out! Rec Chicago, September 6-40.
This 78 visually grades a nice solid E with a few light signs of use. Spot-checked. The disc is a strong player. Labels are fine.
Unless otherwise stated, 78s are carefully cleaned by hand before listing. Upon receiving, your only job will be to enjoy the music.78s come in used but nice vintage green sleeves or, when possible, original paper sleeves.
I do my spot-checking and play testing on a Technics 1200 turntable with a Stanton 500 cartridge using a standard Stanton 2.7 stylus. The amp is a mid-70s Pro-Linear with the mono switch activated. The speakers are small professional recording studio monitors (Yamaha NS 10) that are known for being overly bright – great for spotting that mild surface noise!
I ship 78s as I like to receive them - using the four-sheet 10” cardboard sandwich, foam chips, 12" x 12" x 4 "(or 6") box method.
I use standard 78 grading (E+, E, E-, V+, V, V- etc). I’ll sometimes use double plus or minus signs to really hone in on the shape.
