scrough ● 16th Nov 2024		78 RPM Harry Parry And His Radio Sextet - The 1948 Super Rhythm-Style Series No. 35 & 36	This SRS series duplicated some of the numbers used. This record was released as No.35/36, but another record was released (R 3132 by the Teddy Wilson Trio) also as No. 35/36 in Sept 1948. R 3132 was later probably renumbered as No.57/58 of the series. See http://www.concertinas.org.uk/AncientAudio/RS-1947+V1.pdf for listings of the SRS series from 1948 onwards.
scrough ● 15th Aug 2024		78 RPM Perry Como - Did Anyone Ever Tell You Mrs. Murphy / Watchin' The Trains Go By	It was released in Feb 1951 so I've updated. Deleted Feb 1953.
scrough ● 9th Aug 2024		CD Album John Martyn - Anthology	Seems to be exactly the same as this dual CD except track 1-11 is changed to its more usual title.
scrough ● 8th Aug 2024		CD Album John Martyn - Classics/live	Exactly the same track listing as the March 1990 recording 'John Martyn - Live' released on Permanent in 1995. Same recordings?
scrough ● 27th Jul 2024		78 RPM John McCormack - Nearer, My God To Thee	McCormack's recordings were issued on the HMV Violet label, which was discontinued sometime after the 1919 annual catalogue, and do not appear in the 1920 catalogue. I have searched all available annual catalogues up to 1920, and this record does not appear in any of them. It looks like this recording was never issued in the UK until 1924 when it was issued on HMV double-sided DA-312. It seems that discographers have probably taken this 4-2374 'face number' on DA-312 and used it to predict an earlier single sided issue. I have sent a PM to one of the 'owners' of this record for further clarification.
scrough ● 26th Jul 2024		78 RPM John McCormack - Nearer, My God To Thee	The previous catalogue number 4-2373, also recorded by McCormack at Camden on the same day (1 May 1913), was issued in the October 1913 HMV New Records supplement page 4. Other recordings with similar catalogue numbers were also issued towards the end of 1913. However I can't find any of the main annual catalogues for subsequent years (1914,1915) listing 4-2374. Two members claim to own this record, so we can't say that it exists only in documents, and was never issued. So this remains a mystery. But long before Bolig, John Bennett lists this record in his 1955 Voices Of The Past Volume 1.
scrough ● 9th Jul 2024		Live Music Show Of Hands With Miranda Sykes @ Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens	Please see the official blurb for the Saturday night concert. I don't doubt there will be future reunions,but will the cruise with Seth still be 'Show of Hands', or 'Lakeman, Knightley and Beer'?
scrough ● 8th Jul 2024		Live Music Show Of Hands With Miranda Sykes @ Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens	The last but one Show of Hands gig. In spite of being in the Abbotsbury 'Subtropical' Gardens, the rain poured down, but the audience of die-hard Show of Hands fans were well prepared with foul-weather gear. Since the gig on the following day had sold out, this one was added - and also sold out!
scrough ● 25th Jun 2024		78 RPM The Happiness Boys (Billy Jones And Ernest Hare) - Giggling Gertie / Must You Wear A Mustache?	Han:Vic 21529 - Good that the original, uncropped scans have been retained >as hidden images. They show the matrix numbers in the wax (45801/800) >instead of the catalogue numbers. We try to please :)
scrough ● 24th Jun 2024		78 RPM Bix Beiderbecke - Jazz Classics Series, No. 27 & 28	'Louisiana' was previously released on Parlo R-298 in April 1929, with flipside Frankie Trumbauer's New Rhythm Orchestra - 'Sentimental Baby' (Okeh 41128).
scrough ● 24th Jun 2024		78 RPM Bud Billings Trio - Red River Valley / The Cowboy's Love Song	Previous labels now un-distorted, but don't show in smaller thumbnails.
scrough ● 22nd Jun 2024		78 RPM Enrico Caruso - Crucifixus / Libiamo Ne' Lieti Calici	It's not quite that simple, Han. The December date came from something I'd read, and I forget where now. The 1924 catalogue has some issued by March 1924, and some still as single sided. So perhaps the transfer was completed by/in December. More digging when I get time. But 1924 is the best approximation for all except DQ 102 (May 1928).
scrough ● 22nd Jun 2024		Music Memorabilia Various Artists - HMV 1924 Catalogue	Luckily this catalogue has been uploaded to archive.org in two parts: Main Catalogue Celebrity Records
scrough ● 21st Jun 2024		78 RPM Edmond Clement And Marcel Journet - Au Fond Du Temple Saint / O Viens, Mon Doux Berger	When UK HMV stopped issuing everything "expensive'' as "single sided only" in Dec 1923, almost all previous issues were recoupled to double sided. The DA/DB double sided series were issued from Jan 1924, as well as the various other D series of 'Celebrity' recordings. All the various HMV D series were 'International' and the foreign HMV companies could choose which to include in their catalogues. See the HMV biog and the notes on the HMV 1924 catalogue which now links to the copy at archive.org. Many foreign HMV companies had been issuing double sided since 1907, see notes at the end of the Gramophone Concert biog.
scrough ● 20th Jun 2024		78 RPM Viola Bartlette - Out Bound Train Blues / You Don't Mean Me No Good	Sightly misformed? How about grossly misformed? I've done my best :-(
scrough ● 11th Jun 2024		78 RPM Ben Selvin - My Sweet Tooth Says I Wanna (But My Wisdom Tooth Says No) / Nobody Loves No Baby (Like My Baby Loves Me!)	To follow up on what Mike said - it was decided near the beginning of the 78rpm site being started that things like 'and his orchestra' didn't help much, as the personnel varied depending on the date the recording was made.But there were certain combinations with a fairly fixed lineup with titles like 'and his Rumba Band' which we do list.
scrough ● 10th Jun 2024		78 RPM Zaïg Monjarret - Lavaromp Ar Chapeled / Ar Baradoz	There is often a cache problem when images are edited, especially if you have viewed it before. A cache clear is advisable, and probably why you didn't see my edit.But no problem :)
scrough ● 8th Jun 2024		78 RPM Zaïg Monjarret - Lavaromp Ar Chapeled / Ar Baradoz	Unfortunately the B side image got replaced by the A side during editing (not me!). I managed to prevent it being approved, so the B side edit is now mine, and I'll take the blame for it being poor.
scrough ● 20th May 2024		78 RPM Messrs. Peter Dawson And Ernest Pike - The Lost Chord / Watchman, What Of The Night?	Those aren't matrix numbers, but face numbers. This version of 526 was deleted c.Aug 1923 and replaced with re-recordings c.Sept 1923. Matrices:6573e (Chord) /10304e(Watchman) later Yy3030-2 (Chord)/Yy3108-2 (Watchman). I've updated all entries.
scrough ● 8th May 2024		Music Memorabilia Various Artists - His Master's Voice	It's 1951-52. See here. Available at https://archive.org/details/hismastersvoicer00unse_1
scrough ● 7th May 2024		78 RPM Alma Cogan - We Got Love / I Don't Mind Being All Alone	Pink Shoelaces (POP 608) was issued in Apr 1959, and 45 only according to my HMV Trade Catalogue for 1959. It had been deleted by June 1960. Her next single was POP 728 'O Dio Mio' / 'Dream Talk' issued in April 1960 as 45 only.
scrough ● 5th May 2024		78 RPM Frank Ferera's Hawaiian Trio - Carolina Moon / Maui Chimes	I've edited all Hans images, and brightened Bob1951's.
scrough ● 2nd May 2024		78 RPM Wilbur Sweatman's Original Jazz Band - Ja-Da! (Ja-Da, Ja-Da, Jing, Jing, Jing) / Rainy Day Blues	Xiph: Another label ordering please? All images now edited. I thnk I understand the printing codes, but here the older label designs have later dates than the newer.
scrough ● 30th Apr 2024		Vinyl Album Bob And Ron Copper - Bob And Ron Copper	I bought this LP at an EFDSS event at the Royal Festival Hall, London in 1970 or 1971. I was not an EFDSS member, and the LP was still for sale to members only at that date, but the lady serving me kindly put her membership number on to the paperwork.
scrough ● 30th Apr 2024		78 RPM Mr. or Master Cook - We'll Meet Again	My wife's late father also recorded one of these while in service in India, and was never imprisoned or captured. The label on both sides is a variant to image 2351432 with no writing, although the B side was never recorded on and has no groove. The envelope is the same as image 2308148 but brown, and on the back is handwritten his "number, rank and name", "India Command" and "Spoken - English" in the hand of another person. The recording lasts about 1 minute 41 seconds and is a message to his wife and children. Images of the label and full size record have been added.
scrough ● 30th Apr 2024		78 RPM Royal Serbian Tambouritza Orchestra - Moonlight In Greenwood / Jugoslav Mazurka	The video seems to be AX on the Greenwood side, and the image of the Jugoslav side (3552067) seems to be AX too. Is that feasible?
scrough ● 30th Apr 2024		78 RPM Max Bloch - Muss I Denn Zum Städtle Hinaus / Der Wirtin Töchterlein	I've noticed that paint.net improves golds if you use Effects/Photo/Sharpen. The default is 2, but I've repeated it 3 times to improve the legibility in the image (3552550) I've added. See what you think. I give every image I edit a default sharpen.
scrough ● 26th Apr 2024		Magazine The Sun: Something For The Weekend	Does this qualify as a Magazine? It's a supplement from a Saturday edition of The Sun newspaper.

scrough ● 25th Apr 2024		78 RPM Band Of The Garde Republicaine, Paris - Washington Post / El Capitan	We were both doing it at the same time Mike!
