McKinney's Cotton Pickers


McKinney's Cotton Pickers

Released in 1957 on ten inch vinyl. It's Big Band Jazz from the 1920's. Found  while digging through bins of old Jazz recordings. 

Feels like I'm watching history pass by. 

I love the cover art. Probably would have just kept digging right on by it had I not taken notice of the cover. Cover Art matters!!!
