Ben Lewis @ben6970.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I always check piles of old 78s in charity shops in case of gold but it’s usually marches, foxtrots & recitals. But checked a pile yesterday and actual blues records! 2 Big Bill Broonzy 78s and a Paramount 78 by Ida Cox released in 1924, so 100 years old now. Noisy but plays, and is great. 91093
