MISCELLANEOUS BLUES, ETHNIC, COUNTRY & OTHER RECORDS TOASTED BY DR. DEMENTO

 

-----

CDG-001 Pre-war blues
source: 7.5 IPS mono tape made at the John Edwards Memorial Foundation in
the Sixties (when I worked there) from their collection. Most of the
records are clean. The dubs are decent but the old tape has a couple of
sticky splices.
