Description
Chris Powell and his Five Blue Flames play "I Come from Jamaica" and "Blue Boy" on Okeh 6900, a 78 rpm promo record for radio stations. Clifford Brown takes a thrilling 32-bar solo on "Jamaica." It's his first recording date.
Clifford Brown (tp); Vance Wilson (as,ts); Harold "Duke" Wells (p); Eddie Lambert (g); James Johnson (b); Osie Johnson (d); Chris Powell (perc,vcl); Johnny Echo (vcl). Recorded in Chicago on March 21, 1952.
This record is in E- - condition. The "Jamaica" label is faded but legible. The "Blue" label is faded to illegibility. The "Blue" side, only, is pressed slightly off center. There is a slight warp not affecting play.
I'm a longtime collector who is downsizing. I know how to pack records.
