I hope to bring awareness about the REAL popular music of the late 1920's and early 1930's.

There is a reason that "Hot" and "Race" recordings are rare today. Audiences were not interested and they sold very few copies. Ironically, music collectors today are mainly interested in these obscure recordings that were often cheaply and poorly made. 

The history of 1920's music has been re-written to reflect the tastes of modern collectors and does not reflect reality. I have often read books which claim to tell the real history of 1920's music, only to find that household names such as Paul Whiteman, Ted Lewis, Nick Lucas, Harold Scrappy Lambert, etc. are ignored or dismissed while the text dwells on musicians that were practically unknown at the time.
