Description
Here is either CLARENCE WILLIAMS' JUG BAND or EVA TAYLOR'S SOUTHERNAIRES in their great 1933 rendition of "I LIKE TO GO BACK IN THE EVENING." This is a nearly-unique, unissued test pressing, possibly ARC matrix TO-1301, in their "Test Only" series. No numbers appear in the dead wax.
It's a corker of a band, with ALBERT NICHOLAS (clarinet) WILLIE "THE LION" SMITH (piano), JIMMY McLIN (guitar), CLARENCE WILLIAMS (jug, vocal), WILLIE WILLIAMS (washboard), and "The Queen of the Moaners," EVA TAYLOR on vocal.
This vinyl pressing of a 1933 Brunswick TO-series master is in splendid E+ condition - EXCEPT for some brief, deep damage in the middle of the groove (see photo). It's loud, but it tracks. Sorry about that!

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.
