RARE SONG EDISON CYLINDER RECORD. "4936 Arkansas Traveler - Breakdown (Harmonica & Guitar) - G. Austin & G. Reneau"

Such a cool piece. THIS SONG IS **ULTRA RARE** I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS FOR SALE ANYWHERE.

THESE ARE TWO AMAZINGLY INFLUENTIAL ARTISTS AND THIS IS A PRICELESS PIECE OF AMERICAN MUSIC, JAZZ, AND POP HISTORY. AMAZING AMERICANA.

George McKinley Reneau (May 18, 1902 – June 5, 1938) was an American blind street musician who became one of country music's earliest recording artists. Known as "The Blind Musician of the Smoky Mountains", Reneau recorded more than 50 songs on the Vocalion and Edison labels in the mid-1920s. While he is credited on his early recordings as a solo artist on vocals, guitar and harmonica, the singing on many if not most of his songs was by an uncredited Gene Austin, a vaudville performer and Tin Pan Alley composer who would become one of the most successful recording artists of the era.

Lemeul Eugene Lucas (June 24, 1900 – January 24, 1972), better known by his stage name Gene Austin, was an American singer and songwriter, one of the early "crooners". His recording of "My Blue Heaven" sold over 5 million copies and was for a while the largest selling record of all time. His 1920s compositions "When My Sugar Walks Down the Street" and "The Lonesome Road" became pop and jazz standards.

WHILE THIS APPEARS TO BE FAIRLY CLEAN, THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING IF IT IS PLAYABLE BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE A PHONOGRAPH. THIS IS SOLD AS IS BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK. NO IMPLIED WARRANTIES.
