Edward Mitchell collection<\/a>.\u00a0 As I continue to digitize Eddie’s collection for inclusion on Radio Dismuke, I will keep my eye out for a possible copy.<\/p>\nSpeaking of Eddie, I acquired the particular copy from which I digitized the two recordings here from him.<\/p>\n
In November 2022, I drove to Waco and met up with Eddie to digitize the records he planned on presenting in the upcoming New Year’s broadcast.\u00a0 \u00a0We recorded the broadcast virtually that year, rather than in person, which required me to digitize everybody’s records before the broadcast.<\/p>\n
Before I returned to Fort Worth, Eddie placed several piles of records on a table.\u00a0 They were either duplicates of what he already had or records outside the scope of his collecting interests.\u00a0 He said he didn’t feel like going through the hassle of listing them for sale on eBay.\u00a0 He told me to look through the records for any I might be interested in, and he would let me have them for $1 each.<\/p>\n
The record here was one of a boxful that I picked out.\u00a0 \u00a0When I came across it, I knew I already had a copy of “A Jazz Holiday”<\/em> in my collection.\u00a0 But I couldn’t recall off the top of my head what sort of condition it was in.\u00a0 But this copy was in beautiful condition.\u00a0 So I went ahead and got it as a possible upgrade copy.<\/p>\nThat visit turned out to be the last time I would see Eddie, as he passed away the following August.<\/p>\n
So I am now, at long last, correcting whatever oversight caused me to overlook “Jungle Blues”<\/em> when I added “A Jazz Holiday”<\/em> to the station in 2021.\u00a0 And I will compare my digitization of “A Jazz Holiday”<\/em> here with the one I did in 2021 and keep the better of the two in the station.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two recordings by Ted Lewis and His Band from April 3, 1928 Continue reading →<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1958,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":34,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[49,48],"class_list":["post-1957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-jelly-roll-morton","tag-ted-lewis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1957"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1957\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1967,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1957\/revisions\/1967"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1958"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.early1900s.org\/notes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
