RECORD DESCRIPTION
Extremely rare Gabriel Formiggini record, original first pressing from 1927, Berlin!
Legendary cult record, nearly impossible to find nowadays!
"Static Strut" / "Black Bottom" Electro-Vox 8443.
"Static Strut" has a hot, uptempo arrangement with clarinet, piano, and sax solos. The second side is sedate by comparison, but has a few hot passages. English vocal refrains on both sides.
CONDITION V+ (This record is in V+ condition generally, with some wear and scuffs here and there. In the middle of "Static Strut," there is a needle dig that gives 7 ticks, no needle jumps. Audio quality is strong 6/10, the record is very enjoyable!)
