The songs are: "Sad Hours" and "Mean Old World". This record is in E- to E condition! There are no edge chips, heavy scuffs or heavy wear. Powerful harmonica and vocals on this recording. The labels are in E condition, with no writing or heavy wear. What a nice, well cared for record. Checker 78 collectors... if you were looking for a top notch LITTLE WALTER 78 on the CHECKER label... here it is! How often does this one show up? I have just made a major purchase of ultra rare rock, jazz & blues albums! They were from Radio Station Promotion Manager Lester "Len" Miller and are from his personal collection.
