Cousin Justin just launched an excellent batch of jazz LPs.  I’ll highlight this a bit more in the morning.  Most interesting is this original first press Big Maybelle Sings LP on Savoy.

 

This LP doesn’t surface too often, and it has sold for a hefty price before.  Read more about Big Maybelle here.

…Well, it’s the morning time and I promised to highlight but the real world awaits sooner than anticipated so I have to go quick.  But I will say that Justin posted a record he was coveting and I was anxious to listen to and begin negotiations for or listen to Justin’s draft offers for…but it may end up being sold.  He did put a good reserve on it so I imagine we will both be happy if it goes for that in the end.

It’s Willie Mabon’s Is Back Funky LP on Blues on Blues.  A fairly obscure Chicago bluesman, but from looks of it, a raw blend of funk mixed in with the soul style blues that would typically come out of Chicago in 1972.  Piano is his thing, but Willie’s also joined by some outstanding Chicago sidemen.  Tell us any more Justin? 

So anyway, please don’t bid on this.
