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


There are no photos of this group. They were led by Blind Roosevelt Graves who recorded gospel titles for Paramount Records in 1929 and ARC Records in 1936 billed as "Blind Roosevelt Graves and Brother" This group had one session. Six songs were recorded but only four were issued resulting in two 78 RPM records. It would be their last session as musicians.

Blind Roosevelt Graves:Guitar

Cooney Vaughn:Piano

Uaroy Graves:Tambourine

Recorded Monday, July 20, 1936 in Hattiesburg, MS.

Originally issued on ARC 6-11-65

This recording taken from the 1991 CD "Good Time Blues"

  • Isn't this public domain?

  • @Ryoku75 Well...not really. The Orchard claims that they own the copyright to it. The actual owner should be Sony/BMG since they reissued it on a compilation in the early 90's. There is no such thing as a public domain recording in the U.S. due to conflicting state and federal laws. I'm in the process of taking public domain statements off of my videos since I just recently found out that fact.

    Thank you,

    Mike

  • Any idea how I'd get in touch with this The Orchard to get permission to use this in my film? If you have any more info on getting in touch with the owners, would love to know! :)
