Tune Tuesdays: Big Butter and Egg ManPosted by: ryan @ 1:18 pm in blog news, records & music |
Suddenly, Tuesday’s just got better.
We’re introducing a new feature on the blog called Tune Tuesdays. Every Tuesday we’ll put up a random 78RPM record to share.

This week’s tune comes from Harriet’s collection of 78’s I bought back in the summer titled “Big Butter and Egg Man” written by Percy Venable in 1926.
