The ol' 78s Return

Pleased as I was with all the love the first mix full of ol' 78s got and seeing there is still so much amazing old cracklin' stuff out there, a return to the mixing of 78s was more than logical. This time a bit more focused on blues, but also some very funny bits for your ears in there. Hope you like it.



The Caretaker – We cannot escape the past
Ruth Etting – Love me or leave me
Ray Noble & his Orchestra - Midnight the stars and you
Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians – It’s easier said than done
Sam Mayo – Things are worse in Russia
Jack Sheedy’s Dixieland Band – Gambler’s Blues
Robert Johnson – 32-20 Blues
Mighty Sparrow – The queen’s canary
Cliff ‘Ukelele Ike’ Edwards – I ain’t got nobody
Unkown Prisoner – Lonesome Blues
Hank Williams – Ramblin’ man (weirdly pitched version)
Bukka White – High fever blues
Fred McDowell – 36-61 Highway
Jean Mpia – Tembele
Rizeli Kemençeci Sadik – Maçka Sarkisi
Alabama Sacred Harp Convention – Sherburne ‘59
Calamity Jane – Row row row your boat
