Description
STONE-COLD CLASSIC HOT JAZZ! If that's what you want, here it is: FRANKIE TRUMBAUER AND HIS ORCHESTRA in two of their amazing, immortal sides: "CLARINET MARMALADE" and "TAKE YOUR TOMORROWS."
"Clarinet Marmalade" features BIX BEIDERBECKE at his very peak of greatness, in 1927, an absolutely gee-whiz side, that will leave you gasping and laughing, simply because it's so unrelentingly wonderful. "Take Your Tomorrows" is from about a year later (1928), again featuring some fall-down-and-hope-someone-catches-you cornet playing by Bix, and a "whimsical" vocal by Trumbauer, suggesting that if Bullwinkle the Moose could swing, THIS is what he'd sound like. Overall, a GEM of a record.
This re-issue Australian Parlophone A7534 is in E, even E+ condition. It's clean, and master-pressed, exactly like the original OKeh, and is as fine a record as could be hoped for. You can't go wrong with this one!
PHOTO: THE famous picture of Bix, taken 1924, "Young Man With a Horn."
*****
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.
