Description
"HOW COULD RED RIDING HOOD (Have Been so Very Good and Still Keep the Wolf From the Door?) by THE YACHT CLUB BOYS, enjoys the distinction of being the first record (1926) ever to be banned from radio broadcast! The naughty lyrics were too torrid for those nascent airwaves:
"Father and mother - she had none -
But where, oh where, did the money come from?
I have to ask it - who filled her basket?
The story books never could tell... "
The flip side, "EVERY LITTLE WHILE," is also very pleasant, though not nearly as controversial.
This original 1926 Brunswick 3270 is in lovely E condition.
*****
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.
