The f word part 2

Does anyone know when was the first time the f word was said on a record.🤗

Re: The f word part 2

1935
Lucille Bogan - Shave 'Em Dry
Its on YT and she clearly sings f**k quite a few times

Re: The f word part 2

1923 - Prohibition Blues by Big Billy McTell.
Rare 78rpm phonographic record on the Regal Zonophone label.
He sang 'Leave my fucking moonshine alone' in the chorus.
The only known remaining copy sold for $789,000 at auction in 1933 to a telephone bidder and was sadly broken in the mail.
Unfortunately it's not on youtube.

Bloody hell. Imagine paying that only to find it arrives broken.:scream:

That would equivalent to $15,150,692.37 today.

My post on Prohibition Blues by Big Billy McTell was just a joke. Phil has the lead with his contribution!
