Description

Issued on red vinyl; no cracks, chips or warpage. Some background noise, no major flaws at all. Listen to words and music of Celestin. I am not at all sure that the performances on this disc were actually recorded at the event, they don't sound live to me...but this is what it is. Best offers!  

From JazzBeat magazine: "Papa Celestin’s proudest moment came May 8, 1953, when he and his band were flown to Washington DC for an appearance at the annual banquet of the White House Correspondents’ Association, reportedly the first African-American band to be so honored. Papa got the shake the hand of President Dwight Eisenhower, who stated, “Mr. Celestin, you are a fine gentleman and a credit to your race and country.” Celestin proclaimed it the “proudest moment of my life.” A commemorative recording of the event was issued (in a limited edition of one hundred copies)."
