Mine has Dooto on the label.

The deep-groove on both sides and significantly heavier vinyl will confirm whether or not it is the original, Bill.

I have some significantly heavier vinyl discs (usually very old), but this isn't one of them.

Dexter Gordon - Blows Hot and Cool - Authentic Records (cover) where as the labels say Dootone- no DG- reissue, hard to know how old etc.

looks exactly like this

On checking, same as mine Adrian.

Three mono LPs:

Gerald Wilson - Moment of Truth (Pacific Jazz)

Duke Ellington - One Night Stand At the Steel Pier July, 1964 (Joyce). A good performance, but the tape was running too fast when transferred; all the music is a half step too high.

George Shearing - In Hi Fi (MGM). I have expressed my reservations about Mr. Shearing's improvising in another thread, but it seems strange that he's no longer with us.

Alton Purnell - Funky Piano New Orleans Style (Warner Bros. mono) A fun, not particularly profound album by George Lewis' longtime piano player. Plas Johnson, Red Callender, and Earl Palmer are on board on this 1958 LP.

Joe Venuti - World's Greatest Jazz Violinist (Decca 10"). This is a duet album with Russ Morgan on piano. I've had it for a couple of years, but I can't find anything about it; it's not listed in the Lord discography. Anybody know when it was recorded?

Omer Simeon (Ace of Hearts). A great collection of 1929-30 Chicago jazz. This was a 1965 British release, and subsequent research indicates that several of the tracks have the little-known, but excellent Cecil Irwin on clarinet rather than Simeon.

45 RPM night at the jeffcrom house. Started out with some jazz:

Horace Silver Quintet with Bill Henderson - Senor Blues/Tippin' (Blue Note)

Bill Henderson with The Jimmy Smith Trio - Ain't No Use/Angel Eyes (Blue Note)

Leo Parker - Low Brown/Parker's Pals (Blue Note)

Dexter Gordon - Isn't She Lovely (Columbia promo)

Then some Caribbean records:

Conjunto Matamoros - Camaron/Mari-juana (!) (RCA Victor) (Cuban)

The Mighty Zandolie - Goat Thief/Stickman (National) (Trinidadian calypso on a Trinidadian label)

Crystalites - Call Me Trinity/Trinity Version (Crystal) (Reggae on a Jamaican label)

On to some Louisiana swamp blues by Slim Harpo on Excello:

Baby Scratch My Back/I'm Gonna Miss You

Little Queen Bee/I Need Money

I'm Your Bread Maker, Baby/Loving You

Then a little tribute to the late Eddie Kirkland. These two records, from the 1960's and 1980's respectively, represent Mr. Kirkland performing for his natural audience, rather than for white blues fans.

I Need You Baby/I Must Have Done Somebody Wrong (Fortune)

Pickin' Up the Pieces/Disco Mary (Fantastic)

Ended the evening with some varied R & B:

James Carr - That's What I Want to Know/You've Got My Mind Messed Up (Goldwax)

Denise LaSalle - Keep It Coming/Trapped By a Thing Called Called Love (Westbound)

Clarence Carter - Sixty Minute Man/Mother-In-Law (Fame)

Great stuff - I'll probably spin some more 45s tomorrow night.
