Hello Everyone:
I am old lover of jazz who is new to this site--and I will begin with a post that shows that my knowledge falls far short of my devotion to the music. I have a copy of Blue Note 1, the 12" 78 of Meade "Lux" Lewis, with a pink and black label and I'm interested in learning anything and everything about its production and rarity. I understand that the first two 78s were originally produced in runs of 50 on pink and black labels, but I've also read that additional 78s with these labels might have been produced. The label, by the way, has the 235 7th Ave. address, and "Dave Dexter" has been written at the top. I purchased the disk off of Ebay years ago, so I have no idea whether this is the late Dave Dexter known to music enthusiasts, but I suppose that's a good bet. Anyway, thanks in advance for the guidance any of you might be able to offer, and I look forward to whiling away many hours reading all of your posts.
Jeff
