Description
Ma Rainey "Bo-Weavil Blues" / "Last Minute Blues" 1923
VERY RARE Early Paramount Records, 12081, Mono
Be on the lookout this week for rare LP's from Sweet Melissa Records! Highly influential single from the "Mother of the Blues", Ma Rainey, recorded shortly after contracting with notorious Paramount producer J. Mayo Williams, and featuring accompaniment from Lovie Austin and Her Blues Serenaders.Dead wax: matrix numbers on both sides. Violet label on clay-colored vinyl. Vinyl is in fair condition; there is a light netting of minor scuffs on this record. There is also a very light, three-inch-long black mark on the A-side vinyl (please ask for additional pictures if you are interested). If you are looking for a near-mint copy of this record, this is not the copy to purchase. While the record is certainly playable, with all the full dynamic and harmonic registers of the recording still preserved, do expect to hear noticeable surface noise on playback. All the same, Ma Rainey is an extremely rare artist to come by for original pressings, so please bid with confidence and take advantage of this incredible addition to the Sweet Melissa Records collection! WE HAVE MORE!
TRACK LISTING:
Side One: 2. "Bad Luck Blues" (1596)
Side Two:
1. "Those All Night Long Blues" (1599)
