DeweyGill SUBS 4th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMAl Shayne - A Cottage For Sale / Don't Cry, Baby | Carl Fenton may or may not be the director here, but the B side is a small group backing. Shayne does a scat chorus backed by a riffing muted trumpet and clarinet
|
DeweyGill SUBS 4th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMAdrian Rollini - By A Waterfall / Sittin' On A Backyard Fence | “Footlight Parade 1933” dir. Busby Berkeley. Starring Jimmy Cagney, Joan Blondell, Dick Powell, Guy Kibbee, Ruby Keeler, Dorothy Lamour, Ann Sothern
|
DeweyGill SUBS 4th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMArthur Collins - The Preacher And The Bear / Bake Dat Chicken Pie | Thanks, xiphophilos, page looks great now
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMArthur Collins - The Preacher And The Bear / Bake Dat Chicken Pie | Cropped the han enderman “note the notes” first issue images. They should be moved up to the lead images, and the rest sorted
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMBoyd Senter - Mobile Blues / Gertie (I'm In Love With Gertie) | Cropped and straightened han’s image. Images need sorting, now. Also, the blue B side lost the gold print in the photo process. It should look like han’s blue image.
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMAnita O'Day - Yea Boo / If I Could Steal You From Somebody Else (Then Someone Could Steal You From Me) | Novelty A side wastes Anita’s talents. B side is handled as well as can be expected considering the rather weak material
|
DeweyGill SUBS 2nd Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMMezz Mezzrow - Apologies / Sendin' The Vipers | Between the two sides, everyone gets a solo lick. Chick and Kirby work flawlessly together, as Kirby was in Webb’s band at this time.
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMBoyd Senter - Mobile Blues / Gertie (I'm In Love With Gertie) | Adding missing B side. Looks like I should upload a better (and matching) A side image too
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMAileen Stanley And Johnny Marvin - Red Lips-Kiss My Blues Away / Side By Side | A rather jazzy accompaniment, especially on the A side. Features a “hot” clarinet in the Boyd Senter tradition
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMBilly Jones - Ma! / Mimi | Interesting, thanks! Wracking my brain on that one for way too long.
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Tune Tinkers - Ain't She Sweet / I'm Back In Love Again | Mx 7107 “Ain’t She Sweet” also on Paramount 20506, eg
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMOriginal Indiana Five - My Melancholy Baby / Tomorrow's Tomorrow (Today Is Today) | Vocal- Irving Kaufman on side B (as George Beaver)
|
DeweyGill SUBS 1st Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMBilly Jones - Ma! / Mimi | While both sides were released separately in the US on Okeh, I can’t find any other US issue of these tracks
|
DeweyGill SUBS 27th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMHarry Cool - Blue Skies / My Blue Heaven | Billboard ad December 15, 1945
|
DeweyGill SUBS 11th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMJack Teagarden And His Swingin’ Gates - Big T Blues / Chinatown, My Chinatown | Jack’s sister Norma is part of his outfit during this period on piano
|
DeweyGill SUBS 11th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMWilton Crawley - She's Forty With Me / Geechie River Blues | Added what appears to be an earlier pressing (?)
|
DeweyGill SUBS 6th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMRosemary Clooney - Sing, Little Birdie, Sing / Who Dot Mon, Mom? | Almost seems unlikely, but as far as I can determine, this may be Clooney’s last 78 issued in the US.
|
DeweyGill SUBS 6th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMRosemary Clooney - Hey There / This Ole House | Bass voice on This Ole House sounds like Thurl Ravenscroft
|
DeweyGill SUBS 6th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMBob Manning - It's Easy To Remember / I Feel So MMMM | Apparently, Manning was quite popular as a crooner in the early 50’s, especially on the college campus circuit.
My mother, as part of the campus committee that scheduled entertainment at UW-Madison, booked Bob Manning. She came away a fan, so anytime I’d run across one of his records I’d grab it for her. Now I’m stuck with this Bob Manning collection.
|
DeweyGill SUBS 5th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMFrankie Laine - There's A Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder / She's Funny The Way | Original two disc set reissued as a single disc hard cover ep 45 B 1512 around Christmas 1952
|
DeweyGill SUBS 5th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMBilly May - From The Land Of Sky Blue Water / Good Gravy | The yellow promos I have seem to all be Scranton pressings.
“Good Gravy” is one of those long forgotten expressions used in popular culture, the same type of vernacular as “holy smokes” -or worse. I actually remember my grandmother using the expression circa 1960
Eg: “Good Gravy- did you read today’s stock report?”
|
DeweyGill SUBS 5th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMRosemary Clooney And Guy Mitchell - The Place Where I Worship (Is The Wide Open Spaces) / The House Of Singing Bamboo | I didn’t notice at first, but the artist order is reversed on side two, making Clooney the primary artist.
Mod edit:- Altered

|
DeweyGill SUBS 4th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMBarbary Coast Orchestra Of Dartmouth - Star Gazing / Sweet And Low | Sis Mann is a gal singer and not a depression era gender
|
DeweyGill SUBS 4th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Adrian Rollini Trio - Vibrollini / Jitters | For whatever reason, I’ve always found Vibrollini very sonically appealing
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCoon-Sanders Original Nighthawk Orchestra - Yes Sir! That's My Baby / Sometime | My copy- same as the above images- are on that very small label used in the early 30’s by Victor. Were these used in the mid twenties as well? Or did they just print a batwing on small paper stock in 1931?
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMHarold Veo's Orchestra - Don't Leave Me Daddy / The Zoo Step | Added images
Rather novel treatments. The “Don’t Leave Me Daddy” side features a crying coronet that mimics a girl or small child crying.
The “Zoo” side features a tailgate style trombone possibly imitating an elephant
|
DeweyGill SUBS 3rd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMS. S. Leviathan Orchestra - Tut-Ankh-Amen (In The Valley Of The Kings) / Down By The River | Added more legible images
