Cannon's Jug Stompers - Victor 38515 (1928) / Fowler's Washboard Wonders - Columbia 14084 (1925)
Have you ever found that one record that made your heart skip a beat when you saw the label...only to slide it out of the sleeve, see it in the light and make you wanna curse the world? Well...this one is a little bit like that but instead of the world...you just wanna curse the person who owned it when it slipped into its present condition.
I found this one after getting home and searching through nearly 3,000 78's I had just purchased...almost sight unseen. It looks like it shouldn't make a coherent sound (and some may judge the results to be just that...incoherent), much less play at all, but I decided to give it one attempt and capture the audio.
Whaddya think?
