RARE early Sun 78.
Below excerpt is borrowed from a 1999 article by Steve Propes.
Among the various super rare Sun releases, the earliest known 45 rpm record issued on Sun is #180, the 1953 blues instrumental "Easy" by Jimmy & Walter (guitarist Jimmy De Berry and famed harmonica genius Walter Horton). Another rarity is #185, Jimmy De Barry (without Horton) on "Time Has Made A Change," released in 1953.
Released in 1953, and also extremely rare is Sun #182, "Tears And Wine" by Dusty Brooks & His Tones. Brooks group, the Four Tones first recorded in Los Angeles in the early 1940s and was featured in many black westerns starring vocalist Herb Jeffries. How their session ended up on Sun is unknown. These songs, recorded in Denver, were likely acquired in a master-buy by Sun.
