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!
scrough 24th Apr 2024		78 RPM Duke Ellington And His Famous Orchestra - Swing Music 1942 Series	Edited them as best I could. But just upload the originals here and I'll do it again :)
scrough 23rd Apr 2024		78 RPM Arturo Toscanini And The N.B.C. Symphony Orchestra - Symphony Nr. 3 In E FLat Major, Op. 55 (Eroica)	The 'S' in DBS indicates this is a single sided record in the DB series.
scrough 19th Apr 2024		78 RPM Handy's Orchestra - A Bunch Of Blues / Moonlight Blues	xiphophilos - all images now edited, so back to you. han - please don't make a habit of this ;)
scrough 18th Apr 2024		78 RPM Dame Nellie Melba - Chanson Triste / By The Waters Of Minnetonka	Confession: My 1924 HMV annual catalogue says at the beginning 'issues up to 31 Dec 1923' but contains many DA/DB numbers! I've since found out that this catalogue was a later issue, and the final 'Celebrity' section lists new double sided Celebrity issues up to 31 March 1924 which it declares on the last page. Many links to the British Library in the comments here no longer work and all their sounds documents have been scrapped. Must be run by the Tories!
