Description

Here is country blues guitar master and singer BLIND BLAKE, in two of his terrific tunes, "TOOTIE BLUES" and "THAT LOVIN' I CRAVE."  Blake was the absolute ninja master of East Coast Ragtime guitar, and proves it yet again on this rare Paramount record.  


This original 1928 Paramount 12643 is in sturdy VV+ condition, plays well.  It has a rim-to-label hair crack, but so EXPERTLY repaired by the great Jim Cooprider, that you'll never hear it!  

 

*****

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.
