DeweyGill SUBS ● 8th Feb 2021 | | 78 RPMDave Dudley - I'm Always Day Dreaming / Iowa Waltz | I believe this label, pressed by Weegman Recording Co., was owned by Willard Weegman, another Wisconsin native. Willard, an engineer from Spooner, Wi., spent his career in broadcasting in Minnesota, Alabama and Wisconsin, later owning a radio station in Rice Lake, Wi. Dudley was from. Spencer, Wi. All three cities are in the same general region, which led me to believe this was in fact the country artist. I submitted this to member Gary E. (Myers) who wrote two definitive books on Wisconsin music in the 50's and 60's (to which I was a credited contributor, but this record I submitted to him after publication). I need to give him a call and see if he came up with anything on this. I also found the record at a thrift store on a run to Minneapolis not far outside the area mentioned. Circumstantial evidence perhaps, but it seems to lead in that direction. Unfortunately, both Dave and Willard are not around anymore to interview. The contrary info is both Dudley labels (Dudley Jackson's Colorado label) are Research Craft. More evidence is certainly needed for any conclusion.

DeweyGill SUBS ● 26th Jan 2021 | | 78 RPMAdrian Rollini - Waitin' At The Gate For Katy / Little Did I Dream | Joey Nash, vocals
'Katy' was issued with takes 1 and 2 with a noticeable difference between the two. My preference is probably take 2, the band launches into the song with a slightly more assured and confident approach. Rollini bumps and grinds his bass sax on both takes, Bunny Berigan's trumpet, Fulton McGrath's trombone, Benny Goodman's clarinet, and Art Rollini's tenor sax solos all differ between the two takes. Take 1 seems to be the less common, at least in my neck of the woods
