Description
T-Bone Walker Glassics in Jazz, Capitol H370. Original sleeve and cover.
According to the cover: "What DiMaggio was to baseball, what Lindbergh was to aviation, Aaron (T-Bone) Walker is to the Blues. No orthodox singer, T-Bone has no eyes - never did have - for crooning Hit Parade ballads of the moment. His forte is the twelve-bar Blues, which he treats three ways while accompanying himself on a polished electrically amplified guitar. T-Bone's "ways" include (1) fast Blues, (2) slow Blues and (3) slowest Blues, and he wheels 'em and deals 'em, more times than not, in precisely that order. With Les Hite's California orchestra, then in the 1940s with Freddie Slack, Walker attracted unusual attention as a guitarist and Blues brawler...."
I'd grade the record at a solid VG+ - should play very well for you.
