*** Pre-War Blues ***
Here's a rare original 1933 US Vocalion 78rpm.  Not many copies of this were pressed and sold in 1933 and thus a very hard disc to find. Likely no more than 5 to 10 copies around of this (and that might be a generous estimate).
Recorded and released in the heat of the Depression era, these two sides (very hard to find on Vocalion) are maybe Buddy's most downhome Country-Blues sounding sides. Both tracks are heavy hard-times themed  songs and feature his pal and fellow Atlanta guitar ace Curley Weaver on second (slide) guitar. Why these sides were released on Vocalion as by Jim Miller is a bit of a mystery.
Recorded January 19, 1933 in New York City; Buddy Moss, voc, g; Curley Weaver, g

Do note that the recordings are made with a modern-USB Stanton turntable. This makes all recordings sound worse then they will sound on a proper player.
