January 3, 2023 Records of the Day

Eddie Burns was part of the Detroit Blues scene of the late 1940’s and early 1950’s. He started out as a session man for the legendary John Lee Hooker. Eddie might have had a bigger name if he had toured more often, but he was happy just to stay in Michigan. His 1952 single, “Hey Miss Jessie Lee,” released on DeLuxe Records, is worth up to $500.00. In 1957 J-V-B Records released “Treat Me Like I Treat You.” Both the 45 and 78 rpm versions can sell for $600.00 today.
