Ray Logan You Can't Shake It In Here

I do not own the copyright to this recording. This video is for historical and educational purposes

There is no background information on Ray Logan. He recorded two sides in 1925 for Paramount Records making him a one record wonder. The song here is somewhat akin to the music of Tampa Red who made his debut recording in Chicago for Paramount three years later, even though there is no guitar on the recording.

Ray Logan:Vocals & probably own Kazoo

Unknown:Piano

Recorded in Chicago, IL. c. August, 1925

Originally issued on Paramount 12310 & Silvertone 3553 (78 RPM)
(The Silvertone issue has him listed as James Walker)

This recording taken from the 1995 CD "Piano Blues Vol. 4 1923-1928"

I'm always glad to slip a new one to you. I like this one myself.

The pianist is Jimmy Blythe playing an unusual Barrelhouse style

Good find. I've never heard this one before. Too bad the piano player is unknown because it's good stuff.
