Description

[I had some trouble with my Weeping Willow tree today while taking pictures - it kept hurling excess dead leaves onto my photo table! Soon as I'd sweep them away, out would come a new batch.  So I went with the flow.]


I don't know where the "Gangplank" club was, but going by this record, it must have been a lively, fun place indeed!  EARL GRESH AND HIS GANGPLANK ORCHESTRA supply six minutes of peppy, hot dance music, with plenty of jazzical touches, on this 1926 Columbia release: “SCATTER YOUR SMILES,” and “TENDERLY.” These are two fine and copasetic numbers which will inspire you to roll back the carpets and do the Black Bottom. 

 

This original 1926 “Viva-Tonal” Columbia 693-D is in lovely EE+ condition.

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.
