Madame "Ma" Rainey - Paramount 12083

Moonshine Blues & Southern Blues

with Lovie Austin and Her Blues Serenaders

What a great classic blues record!  This unusual red wax pressing is just as great to look at as it is to listen to.  The record is in overall good shape, but it does have some surface rubs and light scratches.  There are no chips, pits, scores, deep scratches, badly worn grooves or any other major problems.  About the only defect to be noted is a hairline crack that is so tight I missed it on my initial grading.  But just to be safe, it has been sealed and poses no problem.  In fact, it is mostly inaudible.  In spite of the crack, I'll still grade this copy a 7 on a scale of 10.
