Description

HERE ARE SIX great, early sides by the immortal LOUIS ARMSTRONG.  Recorded for OKeh between 1927 and 1931, these are a fine sampling of his titanic work, so well regarded and universally acclaimed that they need no further endorsement. EXCEPT to say, they belong in EVERY jazz collection.  


Parlophone R-1718  "DEAR OLD SOUTHLAND" and "MY SWEET"  1930 trumpet solo / 1930 Big Band.  

Parlophone R-2162  "MELANCHOLY BLUES" and "WILD MAN BLUES"  The 1927 "Hot Seven," with Johnny Dodds. 

Parlophone R-2282  "FIREWORKS" and "TWO DEUCES"  The 1928 "Hot Five," with Earl Hines.  


These records all are in squeeky-clean EE+ condition, NON-grainy and master-pressed.  


*****

 

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.
