Further info for those of you questioning the condition, grading or scarcity of this record.This record offered for sale is a gift from Pete Whelan. It is offered on Ebay to raise money for my work with abandoned and abused parrots and provide education to the public on the plight of parrots both captive and wild. I post each record with the exact wording provided by Pete Whelan. Pete Whelan is one of the worlds leading authorities on Early Blues and Jazz. This is a record from Pete Whelan's personal collection. He is know for "Jazz Origin Library" (Origin Jazz Library is an American independent record label, set up in 1960 by Bill Givens and Pete Whelan. It specializes in early American blues, jazz and western swing music.) And Pete Whelan is the author of "78 Quarterly", a magazine primarily devoted to early blues and jazz and the collecting of such records. Issues 1 and 2 came out around 1967, and, after a hiatus of twenty-five years, issue 3 appeared. Since then, issues 1 and 2 have been reissued in a single volume, and issues 4 through 10 have appeared at one year intervals. The appearance of a new 78 Quarterly is always welcome news in the world of jazz and blues. Some of the most eminent authorities in the field have published their work in it. More Pete decided to start 78 Quarterly, a magazine dedicated to early blues and the collecting of those records. The magazine though, seems to have its own rich history. Though issues 1 and 2 came out in 1967, issue 3 was released 25 years later. Issues 4 through 9 popped up at one year intervals. Anytime a new issue of this magazine is released, it is highly welcomed news in the world of Jazz and Blues. The thing is, 78 Quarterly is a one man operation – Pete does it all himself. He got the idea after subscribing to The Record Changer, a magazine devoted to Jazz record collecting that ceased operations in 1957.
