What vinyl are you spinning right now??

Sugar Mama Blues - 1949 (Biograph). Downhome blues recorded for Regal, with liner notes by Chris Albertson. I picked this one because it has a track by Frank Edwards, known affectionately by us Atlanta blues fans as "Mr. Frank." In about 10 minutes I'm heading to Blind Willie's to hear a friend's blues band, and for years Mr. Frank was a fixture at "his" stool at the end of the bar - always dressed to the nines.

I used to have that Art Pepper (an OJC reissue). When I went down the path of CD, my sister got it. I wonder if she'd give it me back?

I bought it on Contemporary/Boplicity used vinyl in a second-hand book and record shop on Barlow Moor Road ten years ago. I hope it wasn't your copy traded in by your sister!

Come to think of it, I didn't see it when I called round over Christmas! Unless she was burgled, I doubt she'd have let it go - she's a bit of a hoarder.
