Wilbur Sweatman may have started out playing clarinet in a circus, but by 1918, he was leading a successful jazz band. For a while in 1918-1919, he was one of the hottest around knocking out several hits for Columbia.
This recording finds him in 1924, recording for Thomas Edison’s label. They’ve got him on one side of this platter cutting “Battleship Kate.” On the other side are the Georgia Melodians with “My Mammy’s Blues.”
CONDITION: E This appears to be quite clean with no lamination cracks or chips. I don’t have the means to play it though….
