GimmeVinyl 6th Mar 2020 |  | CD AlbumThe Beatles - The Decca Audition | Odd one, this CD. First time I've come across it. Very odd that the Japanese used the U.S. Decca label. If such an LP would have been released here, it would have been on the London label. I do remember a LP being available here, but it wasn't pressed on any major label.. and it was the "Decca tapes", with 3 or 4 of these songs omitted.

GimmeVinyl 14th Feb 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Backtrack Five | What a cool album! Would have never happened here in the States. Hendrix was on the Reprise label here, an The Who was on U.S. Decca...

|
GimmeVinyl 10th Feb 2020 |  | 78 RPMMel Blanc - I Taut I Taw A Puddy Tat / Yosemite Sam | Actually.. this was a hit record for Mel Blanc.. on the Hit Parade, 1951. I found the 7 inch 45 at a antique shop in excellent shape. I gave it to a friend of mine that's a big Mel Blanc/Looney Toons fan... So, yeah.. I've heard it.

GimmeVinyl 10th Feb 2020 |  | 78 RPMErna Sack - Voices Of Spring / The Nightingale | I once had this pressing, and the album it came in! It was a very good sounding recording, for sure! As for the date.. I don't remember seeing any copyright dates, but it probably wasn't too long after WWII.. because the records stated that it was recorded in Europe, and not Germany. I do see that Telefunken did release this recording in the UK in 1935.

GimmeVinyl 10th Feb 2020 |  | 78 RPMThe Beach Boys - Fun Fun Fun / Little Honda | Wow.. this is crazy, man! I can just see an Indian guy, hand cranking an old Victrola, to play Fun Fun Fun...

GimmeVinyl 27th Jan 2020 |  | TVCar 54, Where Are You? (1961 - 1963) | There’s a hold up in the Bronx, Brooklyn’s broken out in fights… There’s a traffic jam in Harlem that’s backed up to Jackson Heights… There’s a scout troop short a child, Khrushchev’s due at Idlewild… Car 54, where are you?
|
GimmeVinyl 25th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMGlenn Miller - Little Brown Jug / Pavanne | Silver 1943 repress on the top should be swapped with the gold Camden pressing.. [Done. All pressings have been chronologically re-ordered. Mod.]
|
GimmeVinyl 25th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMGlenn Miller - In The Mood / I Want To Be Happy | So.. Bob's late '43 to spring '45 repress is a Camden pressing?
|
GimmeVinyl 25th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMGlenn Miller - Shadow On The Sand / Five O'Clock Whistle | Nice Camden pressing, Bob1951.. the other is a Indianapolis pressing
|
GimmeVinyl 25th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMGlenn Miller - Star Dust / Pennsylvania Six-Five Thousand | So... This would be a 1946 Hollywood repress?
|
GimmeVinyl 25th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMSpike Jones And His City Slickers - Der Fuehrer's Face / I Wanna Go Back To West Virginia | I see the difference.. first set is an Indianapolis pressing, the second set, a Hollywood pressing.
|
GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMGlenn Miller - Sunrise Serenade / Moonlight Serenade | Thanks to the information below, and the info Xiphophilos provided on a Metronome All Stars Victor pressing, I should now be able to give an approximate date on all my Victor/Bluebird/RCA Victor 78 pressings, as well as identify the pressing plant. I must admit that I didn't know too much on the history of RCA's Indianapolis plant before hand. Being from the Detroit area, it will be interesting to see which pressing plants my copies originated from! My guess would be Indianapolis for discs pressed in 1939 and later.. but, you never can tell!

GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Cruisin' 1961 | I've noticed my copy of Cruisin' 1962 is different than the 1970 release. It seems shorter, like it's missing a couple songs. I'll have to pull it out and take a look.
|
GimmeVinyl 21st Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMMetronome All Star Band - Bugle Call Rag / One O'Clock Jump | Excellent information, xiphophilos! Does this also apply to the Bluebird label? I do know that Bluebird was gone when the change over to RCA Victor occurred.

GimmeVinyl 19th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumGene Pitney - Greatest Hits Of All Times | Looks like I'll have to dig out my copy for the A side label..
|
GimmeVinyl 17th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Christine | Hmm.. old thread but.. Yeah, seeing as none of the tracks on this LP are Motown, yet it's on the Motown label does make you think.. But! Keep in mind that Christine was a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere (NOT a Fury..) and played music from 1958.. Not even Barrett Strong's "Money" on Tamla would have made it onto the playlist, not being released until August, 1959..

GimmeVinyl 16th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMBilly Daniels - That Ol' Black Magic / I Concentrate On You | Redd Foxx said on one of his "laff" records... "What if Billy Daniels sang "That Ol' White Magic"? You'd have drove off the freeway when you heard it!"...
|
GimmeVinyl 16th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMMetronome All Star Band - Bugle Call Rag / One O'Clock Jump | I see one is a 1943 repress.. because of the RCA meatball, and it states RCA Victor division of Radio Corporation of America..

GimmeVinyl 16th Jan 2020 |  | CinemaImpact | This..is a pretty cool movie! And I got a BIG laugh when Ella Raines, wearing overalls, was under the hood of a 1949 Kaiser.. just wailing on the engine with a claw hammer.. Bill (Brian Donlevy) comes up, and exclaims "What are you doing to that beautiful engine???"
