"Not Anymore" - Screamin' Jay Hawkins! Rare Chicago Blues Metal 45RPM Master from 1957

Metal stamper record made by Apollo Records turns out to be a blues / rock and roll 45-RPM vinyl single from 1957.

Note from August 10, 2008: Tom Chase has identified this record as being "Not Anymore" by Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

This record was originally released on 78RPM on the Timely label in 1954.

(12 Aug 08) I just heard from a friend of Jay Hawkins... Graham Knight, who had been lucky enough to find the stamper to Elvis' first record, "That's Alright Mama". Read here: http://www.kyleesplin.com/ELVIS-%20MASTER-%20RECORDS-%20FOUND.htm

I have a red plastic 45 of this on Timely. It's the B-side of "Baptize Me In Wine." Later reissued on Apollo.

I have one of those silver records, but didn't know you could play it. I'll have to throw it on the hi-fi, however, it could never be as nice as this record. Wow is this great!!!
