Recorded in Chicago in 1942 at the old RCA Victor studios which used to be in the Merchandise Mart. #chicago78s #78rpm #doctorclayton
Born in Chicago in 1935. He played in Bo Diddley's band for a while, too. Can definitely hear that
Both sides pretty juked and played, but still rip and sound great
Billy Boy Arnold "I Wish You Would" 1955 Chicago blues banger two-sider on the Vee-Jay label #78rpm #chicago78s #musicsky #art #billyboyarnold
This kind of stuff sometimes makes me think of Lou Reed working at Pickwick records when he was a staff songwriter writing pop and rock ripoffs of trending sounds. He mentions being really into certain doowop groups from the 50s that were a little different and unique
Harp-tones "A Sunday Kind of Love" 1953, NYC. #78rpm #harptones #musicsky #art
Busy busy summer, hope you're having fun and getting to enjoy some music out here with your favorite peeps! 📢🎶🎶🕺🏿🎶💃♥️
Newport Syncopators - "Apart From You", 1930 One of the many band pseudonyms of the legendary Cliff Jackson. Hottt side on the cheapy label Van Dyke #81868, and a tough one, pretty rare #78rpm #newportsyncopators #musicsky #art
Found a massive collection of 78s today, kept about 200+ cool ones from the whole thing, all over the board stylistically though #78rpm #digging #chicago78s #musicsky
found a private press copy of the Satyricon this shit is absolutely hilarious
