10 inch 78 rpm

Sun 183

from liner notes: "The sad factor is that for most of the artistes here, the few sides on this LP represent their total recorded output. A short session in a makeshift studio, ending in 3 or 4 sides, a few dollars paid, this was the beginning and end of their recording careers. Like their old 78's details and information about these artistes is extremely hard to come by: no one wants to remember the singer who 'never made it'. What information there is available has been acquired by an extremely small number of blues researchers, one of whom writes the following notes. John G. Allinson

"This collection was arranged to provide you the listener with as varied as possible southern blues session by artists you would not usually be able to hear, also as a supplement to Mike Rowe's "Memphis On Down" LP on P.W.B. I trust you will enjoy it enough to ask for more and also want to know more about one of the most fascinating phases of post-war blues".
