LaurenceD SUBS ● 16th Jun 2016		78 RPM The Rocketeers [M.J.C.] - My Reckless Heart / They Turned The Party Out Down At Bessie's House	These are The Rhythm Aces, backing Willie Davis on lead vocals. For more info see Marv's Rhythm Aces page.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 5th Jun 2016		Vinyl Album Pope Paul VI - First Visit To The Americas	Full title on cover: United Press International Presents Pope Paul VI First Visit To The Americas Full title on labels (my copy): Los Angeles Herald-Examiner Presents "The Day With Pope Paul VI In The United States" I have seen at least two other label variants: - similar green labels with "Springfied News Presents ..." - standard Blue Amy labels with "United Press International Presents ..." There were three competing releases that I'm aware of, apparently released on the same day: - Columbia XX2: "His Holiness Pope Paul VI Mission To America, October 4, 1965" - MGM E-433-D: "An Historic Occasion Pope Paul VI Visits New York City October 4, 1965" - Audio Fidelity AFLP 2152: Pope Paul In America"
LaurenceD SUBS ● 2nd Jun 2016		Vinyl Album The Pepper-Knepper Quintet - The Pepper-Knepper Quintet With Pepper Adams And Jimmy Knepper	Note that the cover shows the mono catalog number (E1004) while the labels show the stereo number (SE1004).
LaurenceD SUBS ● 11th May 2016		78 RPM Timmie Rogers And Excelsior Hep Cats - Bring Enough Clothes For Three Days / At Least You Could Save Me A Dream	I don't suppose that the Three Shades Of Rhythm are related to the Four Shades Of Rhythm...
LaurenceD SUBS ● 8th May 2016		12" Single Jah Wobble - V.I.E.P.	Note that track B3 is listed as Blood Repression on the sleeve.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 2nd Apr 2016		78 RPM The Johnny Creach Trio - Danny Boy / It's You In My Heart	The first Dootone release, and "Papa John" Creach's first recording under his own name, if I'm not mistaken.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 2nd Apr 2016		78 RPM Spike Jones And His City Slickers - William Tell Overture / By The Beautiful Sea	From what I can gather, some folks were convinced that By The Beautiful Sea contained some off-color lyrics, and as a result this b-side was quickly replaced with The Man On The Flying Trapeze. As I listen to it, I must admit to being mystified as to what they thought they heard.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 2nd Apr 2016		78 RPM Dick Winslow - Let's Play Jack And Jill / The Old Water Wheel	The husband and wife team of Dick Winslow on piano and Alice Tyrell (usually spelled Tyrrell) on vocals was a popular nightclub act, and active from 1947-1953 if not longer.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 10th Mar 2016		8-Track Curtis Mayfield - Give, Get, Take And Have	The front of the tape is blank. The cover art is printed on the slip case, which is missing from my copy.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 7th Mar 2016		8-Track Carl Perkins - On Top	The case of my tape is actually a tomato-red/persimmon color, but my Canon scanner has difficulties with certain hues such as that.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 28th Feb 2016		78 RPM Buddy Greco And His Three Sharps - Ooh! Look-a There, Ain't She Pretty / Don't You Think I Ought To Know	(From a Sunday Express interview) Buddy said this about his initial release: “When I finally made my first record Oh Look-A-There Ain’t She Pretty at the age of 17, it sold over a million copies. I thought I would buy my parents a house with the royalty cheque but when it arrived it was only $33. The company president had taken the money and run.”
LaurenceD SUBS ● 24th Feb 2016		Classical Item Cleveland Orchestra, Christoph von Dohnányi - Dvořák: Symphony No. 7	Thanks PhilMH, changed accordingly.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 23rd Feb 2016		CD Album Shonen Knife - Pretty Little Baka Guy + Live In Japan	The liner notes from the original LP included in the insert reveal some differences in song titles versus the listings on the inlay and disc: - track 1: insert = "Making Plans For Bison"; inlay, disc = "Bear Up Bison" - track 3: insert = "Chocobars"; inlay, disc = "Choco Bars" - track 8: insert = "Ah, Singapore"; inlay, disc = "Ah Singapore"
LaurenceD SUBS ● 17th Feb 2016		CD Album The Dripping Lips - Ready To Crack?	According to Brian James, this was the last album that Jimmy Miller produced. Brian James interview
LaurenceD SUBS ● 17th Feb 2016		Classical Item Sumi Jo, Gürzenich-Orchester Kölner Philharmoniker, James Conlon - Prayers	The Korean release seems to have the same contents as the international one (Erato 8573 82772-2), but with a different running order.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 9th Feb 2016		78 RPM Ford Orchestra - Hinky-Dinky, Parlee-Voo / Life On The Ocean Wave	The "Early American Dances" label was started by Dick Moore in late 1951 or early 1952, mainly to distribute Henry Ford's dance recordings. See BB Mar 15, 1952: Record Labels and their Manufacturers, p.124
LaurenceD SUBS ● 6th Feb 2016		8-Track Johnny Crawford - Johnny Crawford Sings Songs From The Restless Ones	The front label, if there was one, seems to have detached from my copy of this tape.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 18th Jan 2016		78 RPM Sam Ash - Don't Leave Me Mammy / A Sleepy Little Village (Where The Dixie Cotton Grows)	Co-lyricist Buddy De Sylva mis-credited as "deSylvia" on A-side.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 18th Jan 2016		Cassette Album Tom Waits - Rain Dogs	Original cassette release (7 90299-4) was in 1985; not sure when this one came out.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 18th Jan 2016		Cassette Album Tom Waits - The Heart Of Saturday Night	This cassette seems to have been issued quite some time after the release of the LP. Billboard does not list a tape release for this album in 1974.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 18th Jan 2016		Cassette Album Jimmy Reed - Jimmy Reed At Carnegie Hall	The track listings shown on the insert and the cassette itself contain an error; tracks 6 (Aw Shucks, Hush Your Mouth) & 18 (Big Boss Man) have been transposed. I have entered the tracks in their actual playing order, which is the same as on the LPs.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 16th Jan 2016		CD Album Various Artists - The Ninth Annual San Diego Music Awards	Note that the track titles are not listed on the disc or insert. I had to do some digging around to gather them all.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 29th Dec 2015		78 RPM Varsity Eight - She Doesn't / I Never Knew	"She Doesn't" words by Walter Winchell, music by Jimmy Durante and Chick Endor.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 26th Dec 2015		Vinyl Album Lenny Bruce - Interviews Of Our Times	Tracks A4 and B5 predate this LP by a few years, and as far as I know do not feature Lenny Bruce. More info here.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 24th Dec 2015		78 RPM Various Artists - The History of Jazz Vol. 4: This Modern Age	Wondering if Capitol Criterion should be a sub-label unto itself. It does have its own numbering sequence.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 22nd Dec 2015		Vinyl Album Dinah Washington - Music For Late Hours	A collection of tracks from previously released singles (the liner notes do not mention this). The earliest track, "I Can't Get Started With You" is from 1946 (Mercury 2052); the latest "Until Sunrise" from 1954 (Mercury 70336). The rest are from 1950-51.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 8th Dec 2015		78 RPM Lillian Long - The Peddle Song / Little Lass Round-Up	The (parent) Superb label was active from mid-1949 through 1950, so that suggests when this record may have been released. There is a Gayety label mentioned in Billboard, March 3 1951, but I'm not sure if it's this one.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 6th Dec 2015		Cassette Album [no artist listed] - Christmas Accordians	Somehow in the mastering process, a quite pronounced and disconcerting 'wow' was introduced, which persists throughout the entire tape. This is just the thing to play when some holiday visitors have overstayed their welcome...
LaurenceD SUBS ● 6th Dec 2015		Cassette Album The Cure - Faith / Carnage Visors	This is a version from 1983; see the catalog listing on the wrapper. When an original 1981 copy turns up, we can decide whether to merge them or keep them separate.
LaurenceD SUBS ● 6th Dec 2015		Classical Item San Diego Symphony Orchestra, Yoav Talmi - Gliere: Symphony No. 3	A salute to maestro Yoav Talmi, who led the San Diego Symphony through times of considerable financial difficulty.
