benchwarrant17 30th Jul 2021		78 RPM Mills Brothers - I'll Be Around / Paper Doll	First hit chart October 24, 1942 for 1 week, then re-appeared on May 22, 1943. Hit no. 10 on August 7, finally no. 1 as already described. A slow buildup! Remember, 1942-43 was the Musicians strike, maybe without that Decca just drops it and moves on to new songs.

benchwarrant17 6th Jul 2021		78 RPM The Sons Of Dixie - Bugle Two-Step / Those Blue Eyes Don't Sparkle Anymore	agreed recorded October 7, 1941
benchwarrant17 3rd Jul 2021		78 RPM Jerry Abbott And The Main Streeters - Get A Move On, Cowboy / Tend To Your Knitting	Billboard, Dec 12, 1942, page 68 catching on in Los Angeles
benchwarrant17 27th Jun 2021		78 RPM Clyde McCoy - Tear It Down / Sugar Blues	Great post, I knew of this record, but I long for background. Here is some more. Billboard July 26, 1941 rates S.B. #3 Hillbilly tune for the month of July 1941. Where they decided to put it in Hillbilly category I have no idea ( Hillbilly became "Country" over the years.) Why it is in a semi-worthless 1941 list I have no idea yet. I have collected enough information to produce good CW year-end charts for 1942-1945. Billboard crappy Hillbilly charts began January 8, 1944. There are no charts for 1942 and 1943, and 1944-1945 are extremely poor; half of the songs ranked are not Country or Hillbilly, they are like Sugar Blues, belong in the Race/Harlem or Polka divisions. I completely reverse engineered their chart and information, and will make new charts after I finish the earlier ones. I know I would have loved some decent charts when I was collecting, and it is good to have something to argue over, you learn a lot that way.
benchwarrant17 25th Jun 2021		78 RPM Louise Massey And The Westerners - Beer And Skittles / Quiera Mi Jesusita	writer - Larry Wellington (plays in the band) recorded Oct 11, 1940
benchwarrant17 24th Jun 2021		78 RPM Jimmie Revard And His Oklahoma Playboys - My Little Girl I Love You / It's My Time Now	Here are the top Hillbilly Folk records of 1942 1. Gene Autry Tweedle-O-Twill 2. Elton Britt There's a Star Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere 3. Ernest Tubb Walking the Floor Over You 4. Carson Robison 1942 Turkey in the Straw 5. Zeke Manners & His Gang When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again 6. Ernest Tubb When The World Has Turned You Down 7. Gene Autry Deep in the Heart of Texas this is for the calendar year 1942!! After you add the several months of 1943 charts for nos. 1 & 2, and the 1941 charts for Walking the Floor, the outcome is 1. Star Spangled Banner 2. Tweedle Walking the Floor is no. 1 record of 1941, biggest hit of Tubb's career 1943 no. 1 is Pistol Packin' Mama - Al Dexter, also top record of early 1940s (1940-44) All info comes from Folk-Hillbilly weekly columns from Billboard they didn't start chart until Jan 8 1944, but they gave regional info for several years so my chart is not perfect, but there were so few records then, and the rankings are good
benchwarrant17 24th Jun 2021		78 RPM Jimmie Revard And His Oklahoma Playboys - My Little Girl I Love You / It's My Time Now	Great work guys FYI My Little Girl re-released 1948 20-3117 I had to identify these records from Billboard Jan 31 1942 HILLBILLY RECORDINGS Jan 1942 You Are My Sunshine - Gene Autry, Airport Boys Don't Bite the Hand That Feeds You - Jimmy Wakely My Little Girl - Jimmy Revand Barstool Cowboy - Spike Jones Frisky Fiddlers' Polka - Curley Hicks and His Taproom Boys Tears on My Pillow - Gene Autrey I Wouldn't Trade the Silver in My Mother's Hair - Ambrose Haley and His Ozark Ramblers Whoever wrote this is from the Beverly Hillbillies - Jethro Bodine

benchwarrant17 10th Jun 2021		78 RPM Shelton Brothers (Bob and Joe) - Beautiful Brown Eyes / Sittin' On Top Of The World	Uploaded page 25 of "The Billboard" magazine Feb 6, 1943 See section "This Week's Records" released Jan 30 - Feb 6 1943 This record is listed under "Folk Records", which is how C&W was described at this time. There is an additional supporting section on Decca record releases This is pretty solid evidence for when this record was released Of course, there is always a possibility this was a re-release of the Oct 1942 issue Below are the matrix numbers and recording dates of the 2 sides SITTIN' ON TOP OF THE WORLD C90262-A Recorded Aug 20, 1935 Chicago, IL BEAUTIFUL BROWN EYES C92041=A Recorded April 7, 1940 source Decca Records Interesting, this was during musicians strike, so Decca was digging into it's catalog to release records. That's why recording dates are so old. Their last session for Decca was April 26, 1941, according to the records I have I found this release Decca 5190 I'm Sittin' On Top Of The World / Four Or Five Times - 03-36 Also, their next recording session was for King Records in 1946 My information may have some holes in it, but the Decca info looks pretty solid, using multiple sources to verify as best I can. Love ancient Country music from the 1930s-40s

benchwarrant17 26th Dec 2020		Live Music The Beach Boys @ ABC Television Center	I know of no other TV performance that featured "Don't Worry Baby", it was not even a single at this time, why it was selected, and who did it, I need to learn. Lyricist: Roger Christian Composer-extra lyrics: Brian Wilson I guess I should've kept my mouth shut when I started to brag about my car But I can't back down now because I pushed the other guys too far She makes me come alive, and makes me want to drive when she says Don't Worry Baby Roger Christian gave the lyrics to Brian Wilson December 1964, in the Los Angeles parking lot of KFWB-AM, where he worked as a disc jockey. Wilson recalled that he went home and finished writing the song "in about an hour-and-a-half."
benchwarrant17 26th Dec 2020		Live Music The Beach Boys @ ABC Television Center	For Beach Boys fans Don't Worry Baby Studio version recorded January 7-9, 1964 at Western Recorders Released on Shut Down Volume 2 - Capitol 2027 March 2, 1964 Performed Saturday March 14, 1964 AB released as single Capitol 5174 May 11, 1964 as b-side to "I Get Around" "I Get Around" was not recorded until April 2 & 10, 1964, so this appearance was to promote their new album, "Shut Down Volume 2", single release was still two months away.
benchwarrant17 26th Dec 2020		Live Music The Beach Boys @ ABC Television Center	Background On Saturday March 14, 1964, the five Beach Boys (three Wilson Brothers, cousin Mike Love, and high school friend Al Jardine) headed for NBC Studios in Burbank, California to tape a 10-song live concert, which was broadcast by closed-circuit, along with a segment by the Beatles, to a network of cinemas nationwide. (Lost Concert DVD) When that concluded, the Beach Boys headed to ABC Television Center, KABC-TV's Los Angeles headquarters, on Prospect Avenue, just north of Downtown Los Angeles, to tape an appearance on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, broadcast April 18th 12:30-1:30 pm LA time. They lip-synched "Don't Worry Baby", released less than 2 weeks earlier on "Shut Down, Volume 2"; no single released yet.
benchwarrant17 10th Feb 2020		CD Album Bruce Springsteen - And The Band Played	Ok I was wrong It was not rescheduled There just happened to be this 1974-06-03 - THE AGORA, CLEVELAND, OH One show, double bill, with Springsteen & The E Street Band headlining and Orphan opening.
benchwarrant17 10th Feb 2020		CD Album Bruce Springsteen - And The Band Played	I sure did what's going on? this is a good site, a lot of effort goes into correct and dependable information btw this was right around the time Bruce had to fire Vini Mad Dog for pounding on Mike Appel's little brother and not keeping time I think a string of dates had to be cancelled until "Boom" Carter was hired and ready All the info is in day by day detail on Brucebase Feb 12 - Prior to the start of this show there had been a heated argument/scuffle between road manager Steve Appel (manager Mike Appel's brother) and drummer Vini Lopez. Springsteen, after discussing the altercation incident with Mike Appel by phone following the show, then asked Lopez to submit his resignation. Consequently this turned out to be Vini's final show with the band. The sudden departure of Lopez would force the cancellation of the trip to Ohio and the next three scheduled shows. 1974-02-18 - THE AGORA, CLEVELAND, OH Cancelled concert, never rescheduled. Planned as one show, double bill, with Springsteen and band headlining and country-rock band L.A.W. opening. The cancellation was caused by the sudden, unplanned departure of drummer Lopez following the show in Kentucky on February 12.
