Australian nostalgia for two reasons:
The record label, PIX. PIX magazine was well known for their front page girls in swimwear and they began a record label offshoot, supplying various titles by mail order.
This 10" release was their first catalogue item PIX-001
Ray Price was a well known Australian jazz banjoist, guitarist, bassist and bandleader, playing at times (but not all the time) with the Port Jackson Jazz Band. Ray also played with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Orchestra and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

Australian release
Plain white heavy card cover, radio station library professional cover. A little dirty/grubby but no edge wear from handling, no seam splits, no tears and no writing.
New inner 10" plastic liner sleeve
Vinyl record is in very good - excellent condition, visually inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see only a couple of very light scratches on each side. I then played the entire record and surface noise level and clicks/pops are not an issue.
New outer protective sleeve
Tracks: Muskrat Ramble, St. Louis Blues (vocals by Katie Dunbar), Mississippi Mud (vocals by Dick Hughes), Sweet Georgia Brown, Bill Bailey (vocals by Katie Dunbar), Memphis Blues, Basin Street Blues (vocals by Dick Hughes), Tiger Rag
