Duke Ellington - 78rpm single 10-inch – Bluebird #B-6565
Saratoga Swing
b/w
Misty Mornin’
Disc Condition: E+ for sound and surface! HOWEVER
this is a repaired disc, cemented back together by an expert
who fixes broken shellac records by the name of Jim
Cooprider. (Other than a very very slight tick - the disc play beautiful
you will not be disappointed.)
Here is a bit from a blog
One of the other tricks in Jim’s trick bag is his method of fixing broken or cracked records. Generally, if a record is broken in two it can’t be repaired to be unnoticeable, but rare discs can be repaired with a number of different chemical compounds on the edges, to get the record fused back together enough to be playable once again. I remember Jim rattling off a list of the chemicals that he uses to fuse records back together again (Methyl-Ethyl-Ketone, or MEK, was one of them—in fact “MEK” is one of the things Jim will often talk about in front of unsuspecting passers-by), all of which exhibited a certain chemical property relating to the particular chemical compound of the record itself.
