deezee-45worlds 15th Apr 2021		78 RPM Jerry And Peggy - The Carolina Sunshine Girls	505 and 510 in the FS LA listing should be moved to here. Reported to Mods. Just looked below and it seems I reported this 3 years ago. Deadly confusing and one of them copied the other label name almost exactly.
deezee-45worlds 15th Apr 2021		78 RPM The Byrd Brothers - Payday In Heaven / Hold Fast To The Right	505 and 510 in the FS LA listing should be moved to here. Reported to Mods. There was also an early 500 series which I think preceded this.
deezee-45worlds 15th Apr 2021		78 RPM Tennessee Valley Boys - Why Pick On Me / I'm Lonesome For You Tonight	Shouldn't we move 510 and 505 to it's own listing? As the note after the listing said, these were subsids of Jim Stanton's Rich-R'Tone label and unrelated except that one nicked the name from the other. There's also an intended RRT 78 by Emerson Leigh that Stanton put out with a white FS label. See RRT list. Copy sent to the Mods.
deezee-45worlds 15th Apr 2021		78 RPM Hardin Bros. Quartette - O Jerusalem Fair / I'll Leave My Troubles Here Below	It would seem most unlikely that this is the fact. The two predominent voices do not sound like Ralph or Carter Stanley and the Hardin Bros. Quartette were popular for years, including on Acme. See and hear the entry on YouTube - sure is prime stuff..
deezee-45worlds 17th Jun 2020		78 RPM Jimmie Dale - Moaning The Blues / Nobody's Lonesome For Me	The unconvincing Jimmy Dale sides were following the same idea of HB covers at a cheaper price than the current hit versions. Other such efforts were on Vocalion [as revived by Decca] and Bluebird [from RCA-Victor of course]. Dale later did more for Vocalion [see below] but the big labels soon lost interest as did King for their new Federal 10001 series, leaving the field open for Tops and the many others that followed. They immediately reverted to digging up their ancient stuff as they had previously done on their DeLuxe 5000 series. They did sign up a couple of artists, Tommy Scott & Tommy Magness [inc. Reno & Smiley] but soon transferred these artists to King and discontinued the series. The other majors followed suit and Federal soon became known as an important R&B label via its 12000 series. btw - this DJ label version appears only on the 2 Dale records. Few of the old sides ever appeared on DJ at all but collectors are grateful that Syd Nathan dug up all the 40s stuff.
deezee-45worlds 17th Jun 2020		78 RPM Tommy Little And His Sunrise Rangers - Doby Shack Out West / I, Wonder Where You Are Tonight	Holy smokes....at this stage I will never hear this one .. but what a great artist. And if this is the well=known "I, Wonder Where You Are Tonight", such a great song.
deezee-45worlds 22nd Dec 2019		78 RPM Woodrow Adams And The Three B´s - Pretty Baby Blues / She's Done Come And Gone	Contrary to wide belief this 78 does exist and was the source used for the UK Genesis Box Set Series in the early 70s. Like most of the Sun masters, this no longer existed at Chess and all reissues have been taken off this record or subsequent LP/CD releases. One more copy has been rumored but not been verified - and this & other Phillips releases were deleted after "Juke" was released. Walter's planned follow-up on 767 was also cancelled - but this got put out in error in the 70's (and was also bootlegged)
deezee-45worlds 4th Nov 2019		Vinyl Album Lloyd Price - Lloyd Price	Checking the links, seems the London LP is not here?? Used to play that over n over. Also there was a version with the front picture reversed, not sure now if this was the London or a later pressing of the Specialty. Luckily only 2 tracks were dubbed by the girls (from the reissue 45) but a slight echo was added throughout but not enough to destroy it. A current review (NME I think) observed that this was better than the HMV LPs being put out...
deezee-45worlds 25th Jun 2019		78 RPM Jerry Lee Lewis - High School Confidential / Fools Like Me	Review 'Fools Like Me' is a wonderful composition and maybe his finest Country Music performance. 'High School Confidential' was maybe a bit of a let-down after the dynamite start but still a treasured performance. Dick Jacobs was upset that it made the charts, forcing him to play it on his Sunday evening show. He assured us it would drop out the charts by next but he was wrong again. 4 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
deezee-45worlds 25th Jun 2019		78 RPM Eddie Cochran - Sittin' In The Balcony / Completely Sweet	Strange, I'd never realized this was the first by Eddie issued in the UK - but I was only on the fringe of things back then. I heard a lot of skiffle then and really well known R&R. I really got into it by the end of the year. I'll see if the Johnny Dee version came out at the time of US issue.
deezee-45worlds 23rd Jun 2019		78 RPM Mr. Ernest Pike - Mary	Careless bloke setting up the label print - only 4 letters and he has to mess up the font for the last...
deezee-45worlds 23rd Jun 2019		78 RPM Mr. Billy Williams - I Must Go Home To Night / It's A Wonder What Little Things Lead To	Thanks JLC - Interesting example of using up old labels. This has occurred on several 78s of varying eras.
deezee-45worlds 12th Jun 2019		78 RPM Billy Williams - Old Time Variety Series, No. 11/12	The title "Old Time Variety Series, No. 11/12" is not correct. It denotes a series of reissues, just as the postwar "Parlophone Jazz Series" did. The titles are listed correctly on this page and the list needs to bee changed.
deezee-45worlds 12th Jun 2019		78 RPM Harry Fay - I Wonder If You Miss Me Sometimes / Your Eyes Have Told Me So	Could the 2 recordings be the same? The titles are similar but that's not enough to prove anything.
deezee-45worlds 12th Jun 2019		78 RPM Billy Williams - Why Do You Think I Look So Gay? / She's Coming Home Tonight	This is the first of 2 consecutive listings but the other has scans of both sides. I have not checked the best of the scans but they are from different copies.
deezee-45worlds 12th Jun 2019		78 RPM Mr. Billy Williams - I Must Go Home To Night / It's A Wonder What Little Things Lead To	Interesting to see this coupling with a later and a much later (dog) label. I see that both were simultaneously uploaded by JLC135 and therefore wonder if these 2 labels belong to the same 78, as seems likely - unless he has 2 copies.
deezee-45worlds 12th Jun 2019		78 RPM Horace Lloyd And Harry Lane - Let The Rest Of The World Go By / I'm Always Climbing The Mountains	Another example can be found (163) at mgthomas' great site on this page: http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/Records/labelindex-T.htm. A listing, we are told, can be obtained at the CLPGS. I can remember seeing a green and blue version of this label, same design with colouring like the later Coliseums.
deezee-45worlds 8th Jun 2019		78 RPM Billy Williams - Put A Bit Of Powder On It, Father / Willie's Woodbines	Nota this is a repressing, so the original B side may well be titled as "Little Willie's Woodbines". I've seen that title around including the Zonophone version on this web site - see pic and link below. {Modified}
deezee-45worlds 12th May 2019		78 RPM Jimmy Rogers - Walking By Myself / If It Ain't Me (Who You Thinking Of)	His last great record. Never figured it out but Chess seemed to seek out a lighter popish sound and JR just seemed to lose all enthusiasm.
deezee-45worlds 11th May 2019		78 RPM Peerless Quartette - Carolina I'm Coming Back To You / In 1960 You'll Find Dixie Looking Just The Same	In 1960 You'll Find Dixie Looking Just The Same -- well, maybe not
deezee-45worlds 12th Apr 2019		78 RPM James Quintet - I'm Just A Fool / Paw's In The Kitchen	side A writers - James Quintet - Pls add. Copy sent to mods. Anyone know flip?
deezee-45worlds 26th Mar 2019		78 RPM Red River Dave - I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam / I'm Leavin' Cause There's Nothin' Left To Do	This was the first issue (in the 100 series, before the 3000s)..I had it but seem to remember it being blue, which could have been a repress but also wondering if this is a b/w photo.
deezee-45worlds 21st Mar 2019		78 RPM The Chordettes - Mr. Sandman / I Don't Wanna See You Cryin'	note - spelling is Bleyer. [Thanks, now fixed. Mod.]
deezee-45worlds 18th Mar 2019		78 RPM Shoe Shine Johnny - Joliet Blues / So Glad I Found You	It has long been known that this record was never issued. Shines said that Chess cancelled it because they feared getting into a rut with a similar sound. Fortunately it got on to LP and many releases since. I believe that scheduled releases such as this should still be listed when a number was assigned, together with the appropriate notation and interest involved. [Changed to Unreleased. Mod.]
deezee-45worlds 29th Jan 2019		78 RPM Gracie Fields - Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes / Thank You My Dear	Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes WRITTEN BY us country artist Slim Willet on 4Star label. See sheet music. Countless Country & Pop covers of this song.
deezee-45worlds 28th Jan 2019		78 RPM Duke Of Iron And His Calypso Troubadours - Parakeets / Monkey See, Monkey Do	Please correct title to "Monkey See, Monkey Do" here & in list. (Mod.comment: done)
deezee-45worlds 25th Jan 2019		78 RPM Pearl Trio - Why You No Knock / I'll Never Leave Her Behind Again	Not even for a few private moments? There's love for you.... Correct title is "I'll Never Leave Her Behind Again". Quite romantic....
deezee-45worlds 7th Jan 2019		78 RPM The Famous Boyer Brothers - Trust Him Today / Going Back To God	Reissue of Chance 5009 but "B" side titled "Going Back To God"
deezee-45worlds 6th Jan 2019		78 RPM Golden Tones - God Is Love / Working On The Building	Title is "God Is Love". Not God Is My Love. [Corrected - mod]
deezee-45worlds 6th Jan 2019		78 RPM Al Smith, Hazel McCollum And The El-Dorados - Annie's Answer / Living With Vivian	No link in any way to Gospel Singer Al Smith. This is the Chicago bass player/band leader who was linked to Chicago labels Vee-Jay & Chance [and even had a disc on Meteor from a Chicago session]. Later to be Jimmy Reed's manager.
