A hot "territory" band from OKeh's 1925 field trip to Birmingham, Alabama, JACK LINX AND HIS BIRIMNGHAM SOCIETY SERENADERS cut a wild and wooly swath through "NELLIE" and "DON'T YOU TRY TO HIGH HAT ME." Rough-and-ready solos abound!
This original 1925 Maroon OKeh 40458 is in worn V- condition on "High Hat," a cleaner V on "Nellie."

These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing! My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value. I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all. If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will! Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.” I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
