Description
It's been a while but just received a call from the collector and got another small box of records with start-price instructions to list over the next couple of weeks...
This 78 was just discovered inside a Starr phonograph stashed away and forgotten in an unusable bathroom inside a house along the Alabama Gulf coast.
Up for auction is a 1927/29 Blues 78 RPM record by the Memphis Jug Band on buff Bluebird 5430.
The sides are K.C. Moan (1929) & Kansas City Blues (1927).
Recorded in Memphis & Atlanta respectively.
Tracks recorded with NO filtering or noise reduction can be heard here.

78 RPM Grading System:
- NM = near new condition
- E = barely played, extremely close to near new condition
- VG = played, but not abused condition, should play very well, may have light scratches, scuffs
- G = well played, but should play pretty well, will have deeper scratches, scuff; may have some background noise, scratches, scuffs, wear
- P = well used, pretty bad condition, lots of background noise
45 RPM Grading System:
- SS (New Still Sealed) = New store stock or otherwise unopened, factory fresh product
- NM = Essentially new or near new with only one or two small insignificant visual anomalies
- E = Still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which won't materially effect play
- VG+ = A really nice specimen, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It may play with a few pops, but has no serious problems. Still glossy with a lot of life left in it
- VG = An acceptable, well-played record that still should sound good, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
- G = Not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in a way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
This record grades VG- on Kansas City Blues with decent shine, light marks and scratches. K.C. Moan grades in at G- with decent shine but stripped grooves. Both sides play through fine at minimal tracking. Please listen to audio here for better discernment.
