Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five Okeh 8609 Hot Jazz 78 RPM Monday Date Sugar Foot

$

20

From 1928, Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five

Sugar Foot Strut - VV+ Plays with some light background with strong clear instruments.

Monday Date    G+ to V- with some light groove wear .. Plays with moderate background noise, music is still strong, some very slight graying at the top of a few notes here and there but plays well throughout.  Not a blasty stripped one.

Overall there is some gloss left, not a ton, but these Okeh's persevere.
Great, upbeat sides with some funny banter between Armstrong and Hines at the beginning of Monday Date.

I have about 70+ 7 day auctions right now, lots of 20s Blues Jazz Country, lots of Louis Hot Fives, lots of Jelly Roll Morton Red Hot Peppers, and more!

I like the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:

• N. As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
• N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
• E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
• E . Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
• E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
• V+. An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced
• V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
• V-. Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages.Music remains loud in most passages.Surface noise and scratches well below music level.
• G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
• G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
• G-. Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
• F. Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
• P. Unplayable
