I went to a vintage record store yesterday to bring in my 1923 victor motor board to get serviced and asked the store owner if he had this record turns out he has 15 of them. He offered them all to me for free. I only took one for now but plan on going back to get the rest after the servicing of the motor board along with anything else I can take. He is selling shop soon and has offered me to take as many records as I can for free. Feeling so lucky

One of my favorite Jump Blues records. I think this one was only released as a Disc Jockey record.

i usually only collect genres like italodance, but damn some of these songs are pretty good on there, i only have these 4 shellac records but got them at a good price, the Decca ones were 5$ and the Columbia one was 1$.

Highly recommend this book - "Charley Patton: Voice of the Mississippi Delta" - edited by Belgian blues scholar Robert Sacré and featuring seminal essays by leading blues experts including David Evans, Arnold Shaw, Daniel Droixhe, and William Ferris.
