“Too Bad Jim” – Bob Fuller (1925)

A bluesy number from a trio led by Bob Fuller on clarinet. Love the slow drawling pacing of this plaintive blues.

This tune – co-written by Fuller and pianist Louis Hooper – was later re-recorded for Vocalion in June 1925 (under the name Three Jolly Miners) and for Pathé / Perfect in July 1925 (under the name Three Hot Eskimos).

Recorded in New York City on March 4, 1925.
Released as Harmony 580-H.
