ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Wanderer between the worlds. No other words can describe the musical work of Leon Redborne. His first official stage appearance took place in 1971 at the Mariposa Folk Festival in Orillia, Ontario, and soon after he began performing in local clubs where he became famous with his unique style. His trademarks were a perfect suit (white jacket, black trousers), dark sunglasses, a moustache and a white fedora. Best known for his interpretations of music from the Depression Era--Blues, Ragtime, Folk and Tin Pan Alley—laying on top his remarkable singing style. Influenced by the music of Fats Waller, Jelly Roll Morton, Jimmy Rodgers or Irving Berlin, his interpretations are legendary. Both concerts on this RSD Black Friday release took place in Bremen, Northern Germany, in 1977 and show two different sides of Leon Redbone. At the first concert, at the "Glocke", he was accompanied by tube player Jonathan Dorn, and the second, at the "Post-Aula" was a solo concert, pure and simple. Both are electrifying because of his unique performance and the combination of Blues and influences from Folk-Jazz. He sings, yodels, murmurs and hums and knows to fascinate his fans with his warm and outstanding voice. A must have for every fan of traditional and not commonplace music.

VINYL GRADING SCALE

• SEALED:  Jacket is sealed in shrink wrap, disc is sold as is.
• NM (near mint):  Appears unplayed; no marks, sleeve scuffs, or scratches.
• EX (excellent):  May have one or two visible imperfections, but only of a cosmetic nature (i.e. sleeve scuffs or other superficial marks) that will likely not affect play.
• VG+ (very good plus):  Has a few visible imperfections. These may include sleeve scuffs, superficial marks, & light scratches. A single light scratch is enough for us to grade an otherwise pristine record VG+, but a VG+ record will have no more than a few such scratches.
• VG (very good):  Will show the kinds of imperfections found on VG+ records but in slightly greater number. A VG record will not bear scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
• G+ (good plus):  A considerable number of light scratches or just one scratch deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.
• G (good):  A number of both light scratches and/or scratches deep enough to be felt with a fingernail.

COVER GRADING SCALE

• SEALED:  Visible cover imperfections and shrink wrap tearing are described in detail, but no cover grade is assigned.
• NM (near mint):   Appears brand new & displays no imperfections, wear, or signs of handling.
• EX (excellent):  Displays one or two superficial imperfections: frequently very light wear to the corners or seams. May have cut-out markings such as a cut corner, hole punch, or saw cut.
• VG+ (very good plus):  A few noticeable imperfections or signs of wear & handling but they will be neither prominent nor numerous. These can include a single split to the seams or spine not exceeding 1" in length, light stains / discoloration, small crease marks, and faint wear (shelf or ring).
• VG (very good):  Same imperfections & signs of wear present on a VG+ cover, but more pronounced or present in greater number. Splits to the seam or spine will not exceed 5" in length. A single pronounced flaw, such as extremely prominent shelf or ring wear, marking, staining, writing, or discoloration will cause an LP cover to receive this grade, as will an appreciable number of minor flaws.
• G+ (good plus):  A number of minor imperfections and one or more pronounced flaws such as prominent shelf or ring wear, marking, staining, writing, or discoloration. Splits to the seams or spine will not exceed 8" in length.
• G (good):  Heavy wear and several of the pronounced flaws described above. Splits to the seam or spine may exceed 8" in length. We rarely sell records with covers in this condition.
