Odd / Rare Broadway 78 RPM Record 11413 Original Louisiana Five “The Hoodoo Man” / “San” E- / E Visible Condition, some writing/sticker on label and few small scratches. “Hoodoo..” cut August 1924 in New York, “San” cut same date. This beautiful label / cut is the 1926 version of Broadway (following the bankruptcy of B.D.& M – who cut all discs from 1920 until 1925) and contained pseudonyms for many of the artists who were cut on Paramount & Crown masters. Broadway disappeared in 1931. The Louisiana Five was an early dixieland jazz band that was active from 1917–1920. It was among the earliest jazz groups to record extensively. The Louisiana Five was led by Anton Lada, who played the drums.

The Louisiana Five was formed in New York City. Lada recruited the other four members, pianist Joe Cawley, trombonist Charlie Panelli (often spelled "Panely" in contemporary material), and banjoist Karl Berger. Clarinetist Alcide "Yellow" Nunez was in New York with Bert Kelly's band in 1918 before joining the Louisiana Five.

The band recorded extensively for various companies including Emerson Records, Columbia Records, and Edison Records. They went on to produce such hits as "Clarinet Squawk" and "Slow and Easy." On one recording session they were joined by multi-instrumentalist Bernard "Doc" Beherendson on cornet. The band was popular in the New York City area in 1919, and also made tours of Texas and Oklahoma. After Nunez left the band, the group made one more pair of recordings in 1920 with a violin replacing the clarinet.

E++, Visibly nearly new with no visible signs of wear or damage.

E+, Looks and plays like new with only few signs of handling and play.

E Still very shiny, near new looking, with slight visible signs of wear and a few nearly inaudible scuffs and scratches

E- Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few scuffs that have little or no effect on play, some light scratches.

E- - Mostly shiny but with even less of the luster of an E- record, more scuffs than E-that have little or no effect on play, light scratches with some light noise.

VG+, Slightly above average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

VG, An average condition 78 - moderate wear throughout, but still very playable and enjoyable. Surface somewhat dull with noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

VG-, Quite playable still, but with some distortion and may have some graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.

VG- - Quite playable still, but with distortion and most have some graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches noticeable and may be loud at times.

G+ Quite worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. Grey may be throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled.

G Not so good. Wear and scratch damage extensive. Listening can become uncomfortable as music and surface noise probably blending. Lowest level music can be understood.

G-, Music barely audible over surface noise & listening is uncomfortable. Record is borderline unplayable.

P Used only for high dollar space fillers like Black Patti, Okeh blues, etc. Music covered by surface noise, scratches, and needle digs, label may be trashed, & listening is almost if not definitely impossible. Record is basically unplayable. What you keep because you can?t bear to toss ? while you look for that E+ copy of Robert Johnson on Vocalion at the local flea markets for $1 (Good Luck!)
