Description


From a large early blues collection once owned by Lou Black, banjo player in the 1920s and 30s....who played with some famous groups in Chicago including the New Orleans Rhythm Kings.

I just cleaned this 78 on my Ultrasonic Record cleaner.  It really gets the grime out and only uses water. 

I will give you a visual description as well as an audible one.  My player is a cheap Crosley reproduction for 78's, so you may have better sound with a better rig set up for 78's.  The needle feels very heavy...probably several grams at least of pressure.  It also plays 45s and 33s so I don't think it has a specialized needle just for 78s.  This is the only playback I have available for 78s.  I do not have the ability to do sound files either. 

VISUAL:  Visually, this record is in bad shape.  It is grey and filled with small marks, and has been played a LOT.  Just one look at the the spindle hole tells a lifetime of playing.  So much so that the labels were almost obliterated...I had to defer to the deadwax stamping to confirm what it was.  No cracks.  Does not looks like it was abused....just played a lot.
 
AUDIO:  Tracks all the way through on both sides, but the surface noise overpowers the recording....big time.  I don't know how strong these Vocalion recordings were back then, but this one is faint.
