Nice early jazz/ragtime side by the Van Eps Trio featuring banjo great, Fred Van Eps coupled with Ragtime piece by saxophone sextette, the Six Brown Brothers led by Tom Brown.
Condition: V+; “Original Fox Trot” plays fine, loud and strong, generally quiet surface. “Moaning Saxophone Rag,” even though it appears V++, actually plays less than the Van Eps side; loud and strong but a bit of very light distortion. Light scuffing/rubbing and a bit of light graying of grooves especially on “Fox Trot.”
