Description
TROMBONIST DICKY WELLS was just another 'bone player in the States in 1937, but over in France, he was a celebrity! On this eponymous record, one of the first from the out-and-proud SWING label, we hear his star turn "DICKY WELLS BLUES" and the Gershwin classic, "LADY BE GOOD." His support is ROGER CHAPUT, of the Quintet of the Hot Club of France on guitar, and fellow expatriate BILL BEASON on drums.
This original 1937 French SWING 10 is in admirable E condition. The label is a little faded.
*****
These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing! My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value. I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all. If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will! Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.” I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
