Description
A SHORT LIST this week! Only three items. But GREAT ones! As Spencer Tracy said of Katharine Hepburn in “Pat and Mike”: “Not much meat on her, but what’s there is CHERCE.”
*****
BLANCHE CALLOWAY was a hard-swinging, hard-scatting, greatly copacetic singer - a lot like her brother, Cab - and on this 1931 session only, she had the services of an even harder-hitting hot band than her own: ANDY KIRK AND HIS TWELVE CLOUDS OF JOY.
The tunes are: "I NEED LOVIN'" and "THERE'S RHYTHM IN THE RIVER"
"Lovin'" is especially great in all departments, but Blanche leads the way with her incendiary, comet like singing!
This original 1931 "Scroll" Victor 22641 is in clean E condition. Plays beautifully.

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.
