Description
Luis Russell's Heebie Jeebie Stompers--Okeh 8424 (Truetone)
Plantation Joys
Please Don't Turn Me Down
In 78 Quarterly #10, this was record was included on the list of "rarest 78s" and it was estimated that less than 20 copies exist.
Recorded 1926-- piano with Barney Bigard, Preston Jackson etc.
Visually, the record is V-. This copy was listed in 78Q as E-. I'd say that was a very a optimistic view of the condition of the record but it does play very well. I played the record and it played much better than it looked at V+V. The music played strong with little or no distortion.
I will be auctioning over the coming months, in conjunction with Ebay seller stereojacks, a massive pre-war jazz and blues 78 rpm collection. We plan to both run lists every week, so check back and take a look at stereojacks as well.
78s are graded in accordance with the VJM grading system.
I attempt to grade records conservatively and accurately and provide the information bidders need. Satisfaction is guaranteed without hassle. I will ship the record promptly, properly packed upon receipt of payment. Payment expected within 7 days.
78 rpm records, due to their fragility, require special packing. Ebay's shipping guidlines for records are designed for LPs and do not take this into account. Shipping costs are as follows, box and packing materials included:
TO USA 1 RECORD---MEDIA MAIL---$4.00
ADDITIONAL RECORDS (UP TO 6 IN TOTAL)---NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE
1 RECORD-----PRIORITY MAIL---$8.50
ADDITIONAL RECORDS (UP TO 6 IN TOTAL)----$1 EACH ADDITIONAL RECORD
INTERNATIONAL---- 1 RECORD---$17
ADDITIONAL RECORDS( UP TO THREE IN TOTAL)----$4 EACH ADDITIONAL RECORD
CANADA: 1 RECORD----$8.50
ADDITIONAL RECORDS(UP TO THREE IN TOTAL)---$1 EACH RECORD
FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL MAIL LIMITS THE SIZE OF THE BOX THAT CAN BE USED. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS, ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT WIN MULTIPLE OR EXPENSIVE ITEMS, SHOULD CONSIDER PAYING FOR PRIORITY MAIL WHICH WILL ALLOW ME TO USE A BIGGER AND MORE SECURE BOX.
