Russell van Hooff 16th Apr 2019		78 RPM Billy Cotton - Roll Along Covered Wagon / Somewhere In The Blue Ridge Mountains	Better label image for side A would be welcomed.
Russell van Hooff 15th Apr 2019		78 RPM Cavan O'Connor - Dear Heart Of Mine / In Your Arms Tonight	Some slightly less crusty images would be welcomed.
Russell van Hooff 12th Apr 2019		78 RPM Rex Shaw's 2UE Old-Time Dance Band - Sue, Sue, Sue	in chronological order by record number, this is the first Regal Zonophone 78 in my collection of this red and green design. I wonder if it were introduced at number 22000 .... ?
Russell van Hooff 12th Apr 2019		78 RPM George Buck - Why Build A Wall Round A Graveyard ? / Sunday Afternoon	Sarony and Holmes, also known professionally as The Two Leslies
Russell van Hooff 12th Apr 2019		78 RPM Regal Old Time Dance Orchestra - Italian Skies (Varsoviana) / The Pride Of Erin Waltz	Added composers for The Pride Of Erin Waltz. Based on the two songs contained therein. Come Back To Erin (Claribel); Endearing Young Charms (Traditional Irish Air, Thomas Moore).
Russell van Hooff 11th Apr 2019		78 RPM The Rhythmic Troubadours - Teddy Bears' Picnic / Hush, Hush, Hush, Here Comes The Bogey Man	these4578s .... Who, then, is George Olsen ? Please explain this article https://adp.library.ucsb.edu/index.php/talent/detail/127834/Rhythmic_Troubadours_The_George_Olsen_and_his_Music_Musical_group
Russell van Hooff 11th Apr 2019		78 RPM The London Novelty Orchestra - The Boston Two-Step / La Maxixe (Mattchiche)	This appears to be a re-release of a 1931 Regal original recording.
Russell van Hooff 11th Apr 2019		78 RPM The London Novelty Orchestra - The Boston Two-Step / La Maxixe (Mattchiche)	Wikipedia says "Regal Zonophone Records was a British record label formed in 1932, through a merger of the Regal and Zonophone labels. " How then can this be 1931, and why is Regal Zonophone listed here as beginning in 1914 ? Can someone please enlighten me.
Russell van Hooff 6th Apr 2019		78 RPM Anne Shelton - Lay Down Your Arms / Daydreams	Camshaft Re: enlarged hole It was common for the centre hole to be fractionally too small. This usually resulted in the user forcing the 78 onto the centre spindle, either breaking out the centre hole, or weakening it so it crumbled out over time. Shellac 78s are fairly weighty, and usually stay put once you centre them (if using a modern record player or changer - on a gramophone tracking at 200 grams you're outta luck :-)
Russell van Hooff 6th Apr 2019		78 RPM Winifred Atwell - Let's Have A Party / Let's Have A Party	Nobody really knows who actually wrote Knees Up Mother Brown. It was sung during the Armistice of the first world war, dating it to 1918 or beyond. It was claimed in '38 by Lee, Weston & Taylor, but its origins are much older.
Russell van Hooff 6th Apr 2019		78 RPM Doris Day - The Black Hills Of Dakota / 'Tis Harry I'm Plannin' To Marry	'Tis Harry' was not sung in the movie by Doris Day. It was a number by Gale Robbins, in the part of Adelaid Adams.
Russell van Hooff 6th Apr 2019		78 RPM Guy Mitchell - (Otto Drives Me Crazy) Otto's Gotta Go / Too Late	A great record for fans of Crazy Otto (Fritz Schulz-Reichel) A parody of Crazy Otto and his piano driving everyone mad ♥♫
Russell van Hooff 4th Apr 2019		78 RPM Doris Day - Two Hearts, Two Kisses (Make One Love) / Foolishly Yours	One of those records that Mitch Miller foisted on everyone, and made them sing it. Even Sinatra had to sing this one. Closest he ever got to rock'n'roll. Even stranger, since Mitch Miller was known for his hatred of rock'n'roll.
Russell van Hooff 4th Apr 2019		78 RPM Sammy Kaye - In The Mission Of Saint Augustine / No Stone Unturned	My apologies for the hideously out-of-focus images As soon as i find the record amongst the thousands here, i will provide better ones.
Russell van Hooff 4th Apr 2019		78 RPM Eamonn Andrews - The Shifting Whispering Sands	i didn't realise he 'sang' anything else .... it's kinda like looking for records of Rex Harrison :-)
Russell van Hooff 3rd Apr 2019		78 RPM Frank Rayston - Lambeth Walk (After Chopin And Liszt) / Lambeth Walk (After Verdi, Beethoven And Mozart)	Yes, this is a composite label .... its all i have, until i find the record amongst the thousands here, then i can provide images of two sides. This one will suffice for now ♥♫
Russell van Hooff 3rd Apr 2019		78 RPM Ivor Moreton And Dave Kaye - Kitten On The Keys / Nola	Contrary to this record label, Zez Confrey wrote it. See sheet music cover.
Russell van Hooff 3rd Apr 2019		78 RPM Ray Dickson - The Rock And Roll Waltz / The Shifting, Whispering Sands	sensational pics of a very difficult label to illustrate. I wish half my 78 labels were this good.
Russell van Hooff 3rd Apr 2019		78 RPM Les Welch - (If I Knew You Were Comin') I'd've Baked A Cake / Rag Mop	Interesting spelling of 'Ragg Mopp' on this label
Russell van Hooff 2nd Apr 2019		78 RPM Jane Powell - Too Late Now / How Could You Believe Me When I Said I Loved You, When You Know I've Been A Liar All My Life	This once held the record for the longest song title. It was eclipsed by the Stars On 45 Beatles Medley, officially. In my opinion (but obviously not the officials) the 'Stars' single was a list of Beatles songs, not a real song title.
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Annikki Tähti - Itke Sydämeni (Cry My Heart) / Vanha Riimu (There's A Bridle Hangin' On The Wall)	GRRR one of my pet hates is when radio announcers call this man 'Robinson' !!! It is no help at all when the record label mis-spells it as well. 'There's A Bridle' was written by Carson R O B I S O N.
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Metro-Tytöt - Vanha Riimu (There's A Bridle Hangin' On The Wall) / Oi Villiruusu (Oh Heideröslein)	GRRR one of my pet hates is when radio announcers call this man 'Robinson' !!! It's no help at all when the record labels mis-spell it as well. 'There's A Bridle' was written by Carson R O B I S O N.
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Salt And Pepper - Way Out West In Kansas / Eliza	GRRR one of my pet hates is when radio announcers call this man 'Robinson' !!! It's not much help when the record labels mis-spell it as well. Thankyou for adding this issue to your notes. ♥ ♫
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Johnny Henderson And The Hired-Hands - I Love You So Much It Hurts / Life Get's Tee-Jus	GRRR one of my pet hates is when radio announcers call this man 'Robinson' !!! Its even worse when the record label has his name misprinted as well. Life Gits Tee-Jus was written by Carson R O B I S O N
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Lena Horne - Sometimes I'm Happy / Something To Live For	I hate it when information becomes blurred. This track is arguably long before 1955, probably around 1949. The simple matter is, the label clearly mentions 'Hit The Deck', which is a 1955 MGM film. If this were a 1949 record, they couldn't possibly mention a film that hadn't been made yet.
Russell van Hooff 1st Apr 2019		78 RPM Shirley Abicair - I'd Love To Fall Asleep (And Wake Up In Your Arms) / Your Mother And Mine	I have a UK London juke-box pressing of this record, with exact same matrix numbers.
Russell van Hooff 31st Mar 2019		78 RPM Joan Clarke - Holdin' You In My Holden / Holdin' You In My Holden	This is possibly the only record ever released by Holden ?
Russell van Hooff 31st Mar 2019		78 RPM John Charles Thomas - Bluebird Of Happiness / The Last Time I Saw Paris	To the best of my knowledge, this is a post-1946 release of 'Paris', to coincide with the film 'Till The Clouds Roll By', but the original recordings were in the early war years, hot on the tail of the occupation of France by the Nazis.
Russell van Hooff 31st Mar 2019		78 RPM Al Goodman - The Girl That I Marry / Who Do You Love I Hope	This is contemporary with the original Broadway show. MGM deleted 'Moonshine Lullaby' from the 1950 film.
