Daily Find – Hello Operator by Bob Blues Starr – R&B Blues 45

Daily Discovery - Hello Operator b/w Dispensing Woman Blues by Bob Blues Starr - R&B Blues 45 on Rockin' Records #502

A Los Angeles uptempo blues groover. A beautiful label that you don't see everyday. It's the same label that Pam Baitey comes on. Other than that I don't know much else about this record. What do you think about it?

Daily Find – Harper’s Return by Harper-Brinson Band feat. Rabon Tarrant – R&B Blues 45

Daily Discovery - Harper's Return b/w Harper's Express by Harper-Brinson Band feat. Rabon Tarrant - R&B Blues 45 on Specialty Records #593

I had to share this Los Angeles jump blues tune with you. It's a great record from beginning to end. On the Harper's Express side his girl leaves him, jumps on a train and heads to Chicago with another guy. On "Harper's Return" he goes to Chicago to get his girl and bring her back to L.A. and offers her all the things he never gave her in the past.
