Description
Jimmy Wrieght on a 78 RPM of the Octive Records label doing She Rocks / Sad Strings in VG to VG+ condition. The 78 RPM record plays with good fideltiy, shows some gloss, with scuffs or wear, ticks and pops. Please listen to the streaming audio of both sides of this actual record by using the eCommerce auction player.
This is the only known copy of this west coast pressing from the rare Octive label. I would guesstimate it was made in the late 1940's or early 1950's.
John Hogg also recorded on this Octive label. (His recording, Black Snake Blues, can be found on You Tube.) One side features the jump blues vocals by John Tempo. Sad Strings is a bluesy guitar instrumental. The winning bidder will pay for delivery confirmation, tracking, and insurance, if sent to a domestic or overseas address.

So far, all my shipments have arrived safely. The customer has the option to select insurance for absolute security.
There is a complete audio stream of at least one side of each record on the listing page. Occasionally the audio stream "times out" overseas, limiting the sound, to a brief "clip". If this happens, please email or message me, and I will try to make a correction.
Here is an explanation of the grading system.
M(10) PERFECT! Label, vinyl, sound, all perfect…
M-(9) Maybe a few smudges, some very fine sleeve marks, etc. All glossy vinyl. Label pretty. Sounds great!! (sleeve marks are those tiny scratches with no effect on sound)
Ex+(8) or Vg++(8) A few sleeve marks or a few fine scratches, label still nice. Good gloss. appears-- still sounds great!! UK: EX+
Vg+(7) Probably lots of sleeve marks, OR several fine scratches, OR one or two more serious scratches, OR scuffs. Some gloss. Label is still real nice! Possibly a bit of dirt on it, etc. Overall, a fine copy. No noticeable record noise. UK:EX
Vg(6) It has sleeve marks AND: numerous very fine scratches, or a few more serious scuffs. Still nice looking overall. May be noise in quiet passages, but still sounds good! Still some gloss. Label is beginning to show signs of wear, but not serious. UK: Ex-, Or VG++.
Vg-(5) LOTS of fine scratches and almost no gloss. OR a few serious scratches, OR scuffed. Label is possibly worn. Plays with noise which doesn’t overwhelm the music. Gloss is possible, if the scratches are bad enough.UK: VG+
G+(4) COMPLETELY covered with fine scratches, OR a mix of fine and serious scratches or other defects. Label may be pretty trashed, but is generally readable. Plays with hiss, crackle or distortion, but not awful. UK:VG
G-(3) A filler. LOTS of serious scratches, definitely some audible. Noise is more prominent than the music. Label is BARELY readable. BUT: it plays ok… UK: VG- Between G and F
F(2) Almost unacceptable. Plays through. Label seriously worn. UK: G
P(1) POOR Gots lotsa scratches, scratches, scratches etc. I will NEVER list one like this.
