[78-L] Alvino Rey and The Kings

[Geoffrey Wheeler]

Lunceford recorded two of his Decca classics for Majestic: Margie/Four 
of Five Times (Maj 1103). It’s been years since I listened to them, so 
I can’t recall what they sound like or how they compare to the Decca 
versions.

Regarding the “red”  vinyl Majestics, they really sound fine. For a 
black-label Majestic, my copy of Cootie Williams’ recording of 
“(Cherry) Red Blues” with vocal by Eddie “Clean Head” Vinson has great 
sound! When I first played it, I was quite amazed.
