Oh how fun—I have this record also. Very quintessential 1920’s sound isn’t it?

Thanks for the post,

Steven

Funny- I have one too. And I agree! I have to laugh at eBay sellers that hawk how "RARE!!" it is, when there are 3 copies just in this here thread! :lol:

Yes, and the number of common Caruso records being peddled the same way. I’ve even seen cracked or broken records offered at crazy prices.

Recorded June 11, 1928 in New York. Both Bluebird B-7757 and Victor V-38010 call this song "Kansas City Stomps". Probably a typo.
