Tane1976 14th May 2024		78 RPM Iff's Orchestra - Way Down Colon Town	I have to own up and say I moved recently and the record was completely smashed by the movers, so I no longer own it.
Tane1976 7th May 2021		78 RPM Melville Gideon - Here Am I, Broken-Hearted / Diane (I'm In Heaven When I See You Smile)	My example has the same royalty stamp
Tane1976 7th May 2021		78 RPM Artie Shaw - Swing Music 1939 Series, No. 297/298	Mine is Australian pressing B.8893
Tane1976 16th Jan 2019		78 RPM Trinity Chimes Of New York - Lead, Kindly Light / Nearer My God To Thee	Record brought from Thrift Shop in Auckland, New Zealand, Jan. 2019. Sorry I made a typo. The artist is "Trinity Chimes of New York" not Cimes. [Now fixed. Thanks for uploading. Mod.]
Tane1976 16th Jan 2019		78 RPM Iff's Orchestra - Way Down Colon Town	I bought this record from a Thrift Store in 1999 or 2000 in Auckland, New Zealand and played it a few times, its very Edwardian Brass band type oompah music. Sadly it was accidentally broken in 2009 by my partner and now only plays last 30 seconds.
Tane1976 31st May 2017		78 RPM Mr. Ernest Pike - She Is Far From The Land / The Rosary	This record is my oldest that still plays, very scratchy and melodyless Edwardian growl with no melody, beat or SYN - CO- PATION at all.
Tane1976 31st May 2017		78 RPM Ana Hato And Deane Waretini - Po Atarau (A Maori Farewell) / May I Not Love?	Lovinda, it would be, but New Zealand did not get a record pressing plant until 1948
Tane1976 31st May 2017		78 RPM Ivor Moreton And Dave Kaye - Kitten On The Keys / Nola	Even though not credited, Kitten on the Keys was a 1921 hit for Zez Confrey
Tane1976 31st May 2017		78 RPM New Light Symphony Orchestra - Hearts And Flowers / The Glow-Worm	This record sounds medieval. Could be 1928, as a radio programme from November 1928 mentions playing it.
Tane1976 30th May 2017		78 RPM Gracie Fields - Now Is The Hour / Come Back To Sorrento	Now is the Hour is also known as Po Ata Rau and was written by Kaihau and Waretini in the 1920s.
Tane1976 30th May 2017		78 RPM Andrews Sisters - She Wore A Yellow Ribbon (Round Her Neck) / Now! Now! Now! Is The Time	A1 should be Wore not Wpre, typo, my bad sorry. [fixed-mod]
Tane1976 30th May 2017		78 RPM Bing Crosby And The Andrews Sisters - Quicksilver / Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?	My one is similar except is says "Made in New Zealand" not going through the rigamarole of listing a separate record for it.

Tane1976 28th Mar 2017		78 RPM Jack Hylton - More Old Songs (First Record) / More Old Songs (Second Record)	I have an Australian pressing of this record.
Tane1976 24th Mar 2017		Vinyl Album Michael Jackson - Bad	This album is perfect, it is too great for words
Tane1976 13th Feb 2017		Vinyl Album The Time - What Time Is It?	Review The Time's second and best of their album. The funk work outs on the debut are taken further and we have a good time fun record. The opener Wild and Loose is agreat party jam about being a famous band and having fun. Includes a funny conversation with some female fans talking uo the group, but once they meet Morris, who brushes them off, they change. This is followed by 777 - 9311 a song about the group wanting a ladies phone number, no doubt for something else. The song ahs a pleading party feel and became a huge hit on the soul chart reaching #2. In real life it was the phone number of Prince's guitarist - Dez Dickerson, who had to change it after he was called all hours of the night. The nest song is a silly skit, but enjoyable enough, but it is a filler. Then comes The Walk, easily the best Jam on the album and possibly the greatest song ever by the Time. The walk is about showing off and includes a catchy melody and some hilarious lyrics. At the end Morris is encouraging Vanity (Of Vanity 6 fame) to lose her jeans and walk around in a camisole (After all the girls in his neighbourhood wear them and Morris always has a ready supply of women's lingere in his glovebox). Prince also offers vocal cameos and the whole song is funky but hilarious. Finally we have two ballads, which are a vast improvement on the ballads on the debut. Gigolos get lonely to is sublime and proves there is more to Morris than some jet set meets jive ass pimp ladies man. He has emotions too, finally we I don't wanna leave you, which flies in the face of what we think of Morris. Here he sings about commitment, but this is strange from a man who pretty much is gone once he has finished you know what. Overall this is great stuff, very funky, dancy and soulful and totally reminescent of the genius of Prince. 9/10 3 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
Tane1976 13th Feb 2017		Vinyl Album The Time - What Time Is It?	Again, this album is all Prince, with him recording the tracks and using Morris for the vocals. He credits band members, but it is 100% Prince again, under the monniker Jamie Starr.
Tane1976 13th Feb 2017		Vinyl Album The Time - The Time	This album was produced, arranged and composed by Prince. Prince wrote all the songs and performed the whole album, with Morris Day singing lead vocals on it. The Time had no part in this or the second album. Prince used the pseudonym Jamie Starr and was producer with Morris Day. The music was credited to Tionna Music a company owned by Prince and Morris Day. When Morris left the time in June 1084, all the credits went back to Prince. This album was an outlet for Prince to portray his black funk sound and the Time were a front for this. He credits all the jams to the Time though and usually Morris Day and guitarist Jesse Johnson.
