Louis Jordan began his career in the 1930s and was very popular in the early 1950s. He started in Big Band Swing Jazz and then Jump Blues in the 1940s. In the late 40s and early 50s, he partnered with some of the great stars of the time: Being Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, and Louis Armstrong.

Jordan entered the Rock ’n Roll Hall of Fame in 1987.

In 1953, when this record was made, Extended Play technology was only a year old. It allowed record companies to put 2 songs on each side, which could hold up to 7 1/2 minutes of music, playing at 45 r.p.m.

Even though there isn’t an inner dust jacket, the outer one has protected this record beautifully over the last 70 years. It looks like it’s never been played.
