Early Graham and his Musical Drifters - 1954
Texas Records (Starday Custom Pressing) # 508.
Side A - I Wish You'd Start Fooling Again .
Side B - Stop Fooling My Heart.
Here is another very rare Starday Custom pressing from Nov 1954. Early Graham and the band start with a nice slice of country on the A side but then really start to cook with the mid tempo flip ! well it starts mid tempo but actually gets quicker as the band start to turn up the heat.
These early vanity pressings may not be killer rockabilly like the later releases on the Starday custom series but by jingo they are IMO works of art.
Mr Graham may not have a the greatest voice in country music but by heck he gave it a go on this his only ever release .
Big thanks for filling the (SCP) gaps. I use Fission from https://rogueamoeba.com/store/ to remove the needle drop & crackle & start & end. Cheap & works.
