Description
Sleepy John Estes
1937 pre war blues
Decca 7354, 78rpm, “Airplane Blues” b/w “Hobo Jungle Blues.” Condition; Vg++. HAMMIE NIXON on harmonica, ESTES and CHARLIE PICKET, guitars. Recorded in August 1937, "Airplane Blues" is a varient of "Good Morning Little School Girl."
CONDITION:
The record is visually graded as VG++. The music plays very well, with minor scuffs and scratches, with the usual hiss, crackle, and pop – nothing that greatly impairs play. The music plays well above the background noise. The labels show moderate wear. The record plays through well. (Standard Docks/JJJ grading used). Aural grade will, of course, vary depending upon the equipment it is played on. There’s a fair amount of gloss left on this one.
Please be advised that the label scan -- while showing an approximately accurate picture, tends to show a somewhat degraded image of printed words, occasionally shifts colors and picks up glare, and usually gives an image which is at least a half grade or more below the actual quality. Still, the scan will give an over-all sense of the label’s condition. HERE, THE ACTUAL LABEL IS DARKER IN COLOR AND SOMEWHAT SHARPER.
