Description
Fred Skinner - “Fred Skinner” Are-Tone Records 72-6377/6378 (Stereo). Super Hard to Find Private Pressing Ragtime / Barrelhouse / Jazz / Blues Piano Album from Fred Skinner. Fred Skinner was an African American who began his career in 1924 as a band singer. Two of his memorable compositions were "Roll 'Em Freddie" and "Skinner Boogie." Over the years he fronted his own bands and trios. When in Seattle he often played at the Roosevelt Hotel (7th Avenue & Pine St, Seattle) -- hence his recording: "Jumpin' At The Roosevelt.” There is no information on the Jacket or Label concerning when or where this LP was recorded or released and I can’t find any further info on the Internet. Would seem likely to be from the 1960s although he appears to have had other recordings on this Label as far back as at least the 1950s. In the Original Cover with no Cutouts, Promo markings or Barcode.
