I wondered what you would think Larry. Maybe you could send me more reactions (maybe by email) after comparing with the Fish lp.
Thanks to those ordering today - they will all be mailed in the morning.
The early Verve sessions with OP are wonderful. The Mosaic box contains them. I had an occasional personal/professional relationship with him during his last 15 years . What a great spirit. I am wearing a belt buckle right now he secured for me. Love Roy.
Just acquired a couple hundred discs. Have not examined all of them but the following records jumped out at me:
Okeh 4254 Mamie Smith's Jazz Hounds - Shim-me Kings Blues / Royal Garden Blues - 1921
Okeh 40772 Frankie Turmbauer & His Orchestra with Bix - Singin' the Blues / Clarinet Marmalade - 1927
Brunswick 3245 Savannah Syncopators - Deep Henderson / Jackass Blues - 1926
Vocalion 14859 Fletcher Henderson and His Orchestra - Hard Hearted Hannah / The Gouge of Armour Avenue - 1924
