Description
Louis Armstrong with The Mills Brothers
"W. P. A. / Marie"
Decca 3151, 1940
Check my feedback! I pack well!
Withdrawn / Banned (June 1940) because of the W.P.A. tune, replaced by the Decca 3291 Armstrong record. Furthermore a similarly titled Glenn Miller record was never released at about the same time because of the political uproar it caused, also a Decca 3185 Jan Savitt W.P.A. and a Decca 7722 Skeets Tolbert W.P.A. were withdrawn, may be others. W.P.A. Works Project Administration = "We Poke Along". Time Magazine reference about the censorship from 1940
I included large scans which may not show all of the surface wear present.
Nice E- surface condition.
Please ask if you have any questions!
