Description
...there I was...with a Saturday Evening Post under one arm, and a Ham on Rye in the other. Down, down I went into the 78 rpm catacombs. Then! ...the lights went out ! Apparently, a stack of Opera 78's had come loose from the rafters and knocked my block, and time became irrelevant, fitting, among all the ages of sound recording which lay around me. While in the ether, I was visited by the 78rpm deity "Shellacus", who gave me a hand up and told me to go out and offer to the people of earth, records which will be loved and cherished...so to make a long story short (wait, it's already too long) ...when I woke up, around me were a creamy crop of records from which to achieve this goal. This record set and more to come are from the heart of "Shellacus" and should be treated with reverence and of course, multiple bids...if you would. Thanks all !
I'll stop adding this story to all the auctions soon...maybe.
Who loves Billie Holiday? raise yer hands...
Here she is on Vocalion 4238
She wrote "I Wish I Had You" for me
and when I said no, she wrote "I'm Gonna Lock My Heart"...typical.
The record is a beautiful V++ to E- and she was an E !
good night, more tomorrow.
