jakethehiggler 14th Jan 2016		78 RPM Wingy Mannone - On The Good Ship Lollipop / Fare-Thee-Well Annabelle	It seems to be generally accepted that the artist's name is spelled Wingy Manone. However this label clearly has it as Wingy Mannone ! Is this a spelling mistake by the record company or the label printers ? I'll let you Moderators decide which should be used for the Artist's name on this record.

jakethehiggler 13th Jan 2016		78 RPM Harry James - The Sheik Of Araby / It's The Last Time I'll Fall In Love	This label is new to me. It's clearly related to the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. but other than that I have no information. Maybe they were promotional items for Firestone products. Please feel free to correct or add any information you can find.
jakethehiggler 13th Jan 2016		78 RPM The Blue Mountaineers - Yes, Mr. Brown / Dreaming	Not sure of the release date of this record. I guess it's early 1930s. If anyone has any missing info, please add.

jakethehiggler 9th Jan 2016		78 RPM Percival Mackey's Band - Let's Do It (Let's Fall In Love) / You've Made A Difference To Me	Apparently all the Octacros records were released between 1934 and 1937 with most of the earlier recordings being re-issues from Piccadilly & Metropole masters. (Ref: http://www.mgthomas.co.uk/dancebands/Labels/LabelPages/Octacros.htm ). This was originally recorded in April 1929.

jakethehiggler 16th Nov 2015		78 RPM Mardi Gras Sextette - You've Had Your Day / Virginia Blues	Apparently, "Ladd's Black Aces" was just a pseudonym for the Original Memphis Five.
jakethehiggler 15th Nov 2015		78 RPM John McCormack - Molly Brannigan	I'm finding it difficult to date this record accurately. I think it is around 1913/14 but I'm not sure. Can anyone help ?

jakethehiggler 12th Nov 2015		78 RPM Čalgija Radio Skopja - Nevesta Odi / Žensko Oro	I have very little information about this record. It was produced by Jugoton, a record company from the former Republic of Yugoslavia and based in Zagreb. I believe that Zensko Oro is a traditional Macedonian womens dance. Thanks to anyone who can provide any further information.

jakethehiggler 3rd Nov 2015		78 RPM Lloyds Bank Staff Members - Weighed In The Balance (A Banking Drama)	Don't know what to say about this one ! It certainly won't win any Oscars or literary awards but it's an interesting novelty item.

jakethehiggler 2nd Nov 2015		78 RPM Chin's Calypso Sextet - Big Boy And Teacher / Red Tomato	Not sure of the release date for this record, but from a brief biography of Vincent "Randy" Chin (born 3 October 1937, Kingston, Jamaica died 2 February 2003, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States) - (ref: Wikipedia) - I would guess it is from the late 1950s or early 1960s.
