It Was A Lover & His Lass / Blow, Blow Thou Winter Wind - Fox-trots

78rpm shellac record

Ken “Snakehips” Johnson was Britain’s most successful black bandleader.  Johnson’s band had a long term engagement at London’s Cafe de Paris nightclub where it was performing on March 8, 1941 when two bombs came into the building through a ventilation shaft and exploded in front of the band killing Johnson and dozens of others.

A little over a month later on April 17, 1941 vocalist Al Bowlly was killed when a parachute mine exploded outside of his apartment.

It will be very carefully wrapped. I will combine postage if you buy additional records.
