Search - Bobby Leecan :: Suitcase Breakdown

Until relatively recently, hearsay and rumour have been the only unreliable source available for would-be Bobbie Leecan biographers - but now, thanks to the perseverance of some dedicated researchers, Leecan is no longer a biographical blank and these notes contain much new information about this great musician. A high quality audio appreciation of Bobbie Leecan's recorded work has long been overdue and as usual, we, at Frog Records, are most proud of the sonic results achieved. However, an essential inclusion to the contents of this release is Leecan's only solo coupling recorded as 'Blind Bobbie Baker' for Path/Perfect in 1927. Unfortunately, this rare original suffers from stripped grooves and other hard-to-deal with problems. It is hoped that this compromise between surface noise and extensive restoration will not diminish the listener's enjoyment.
