Quality Records !

Quality Records (Canada) 


Ernie Chaffin - Quality Records # 1659 - 1957
Side A - I'm Lonesome
Side B - Laughin' and Jokin' 


Originally released on the legendary Sun records from Memphis in the same year and picked up for a release on the Canadian label Quality.
This is a rare find on a 78 by Quality (only listed as a release on Quality as a 45 rpm on Discogs) and in my opinion one of the greatest recordings made at Sun studios .......better than any Jerry Lee Lewis recording .......so is a mystery why Sam released 4 singles by Ernie but he never pushed him like he did with all the others.
Anyway, this is a quality record released on a Quality label. Pure country bop, original sound, original production and just brilliant IMO.
