DON EWELL QUARTET Yellow Dog Blues
Analogue Productions Test Pressing
New And Sealed Audiophile Vinyl LP
Record Label: Analogue Productions APJ 019 (Test Pressing)
Rare test pressing for the limited edition, Analogue productions remaster of Don Ewell's 'Yellow Dog Blues.' Only information on the disc itself is stamped on the upper right corner of the cover.
These highly collectible test pressings are from the first stamper and sometimes less than 10 exist. Test pressings reflect the closest you can get to the lacquers and hence have a special collectible value.
Album is packaged in a generic white sleeve with the following information stamped in the upper right hand corner: NOV 30 1994, APJ-019 A1/B1. Analogue Productions tests were usually pressed at R.T.I and should have one of their generic labels with identifying matrix numbers inside the sealed cover.
Record is new and still sealed in it's original plastic sleeve.
Disclaimer: Because this record is sealed, I am taking it on faith that the vinyl within is what's marked on the jacket. As I've said, it's the only identifying marker on the LP.

Review: More of a well-kept secret than some of his peers, pianist Don Ewell's interpretation of Waller, Johnson and Morton, both in performances and recordings, are revered within New Orleans and traditional jazz circles. Learning from Bechet, Ory, Spanier, Mole and Teagarden among others, Ewell was working steadily and in demand up until his death in 1983. This true stereo recording from 1959, is a great sonic showcase of his mastery of stride. Featuring eight selections including: New Orleans Hop Scop Blues, Ole Miss, Georgia Bo Bo and the title song.
