The Castle Jazz Band was based out of a roadhouse tavern that was built to look like a castle. The address was 5150 SE Glen Echo Avenue, Portland, OR. It later years it became a steakhouse, but became unoccupied by the late 1970s. It was torn down sometime between 2006 and 2007. Fortunately, Glenn Sage was kind enough to take pictures before it was demolished.

NOTE: This listing is created for research and educational purposes only. Although I actually own almost all of the discs in the listing of this page, they are NOT FOR SALE. I have no particular insight as to how you might acquire them. With the information you have found here, search eBay, gemm.com, or post a question to 78-C. Otherwise, you'll need to spend hours over a period of time searching junk stores, garage sales, record auctions (both mail and internet), and anyplace else that may have 78rpm discs for sale.
