'Black Pattie' was one the small number black owned record label in the 1920's..Started by former pro- American Football player, and scout for the Paramount record company, Mayo Williams, in 1927. Label named after black oprea singer Matilda Jones A.K.A 'The Black Pattie'. The label only issued about 50 records, then was finished within a year. This record (above) has a $$$$$$$$$$$ value,only one or two copies have been found...well worth it just for the work gone into the label design

  • It is a real treat to be able to listen to this recording--thanks for posting. The guitar parts remind me a bit of Elizabeth Cotten's "Freight Train" --much, much later, of course.

  • @Tetlama Glad you like...many thanks John

  • 53jbop - Black swan records was african-american owned too and was founded in 1921. of the above record there is only a single existant copy, found and still owned by Joe Bussard of Frederick Maryland.
