thebluesneverdie 29th May 2024		78 RPM Jimmie Rodgers - The Gambler's Blues / T.B. Blues	The actual spelling on the label is in error i.e.The Gambler's Blues (not Those,as was the correct way-the os part has been omitted).
thebluesneverdie 25th Mar 2024		78 RPM Goldie Hill - I'm Yvonne (Of The Bayou) / Say Big Boy	Between 1949 and 1952,the "DECCA-28000" series were for Switzerland.However,this record is from 1953,so this may not apply. N.B.also,there was usually a "K" prefix used.

thebluesneverdie 31st Aug 2023		78 RPM Patton And Lee - Oh Death / Troubled 'Bout My Mother	Apparently,according to The 78 RPM Channel(youtube),there are only three(3)known copies of this record.
thebluesneverdie 6th Apr 2023		78 RPM The Alabama Barn Stormers - Little Bessie / The Two Orphans	N.B. Regal Records used the name Alabama Barn Stormers for several different acts,and also the name Regal Rascals.
thebluesneverdie 6th Apr 2023		78 RPM Albert Richardson - The Old Sow / The Flies Be On The Turmuts	The actual title of song is "The Vly Be On The Turmut" (i.e., The fly is on the turnip), and is a song from the Wiltshire area, sung in local dialect. It is also a marching song of the Wiltshire Regiment. There are also variations of the song in both Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.
thebluesneverdie 13th Mar 2023		78 RPM Frank Hutchison - The Chevrolet Six / Cannon Ball Blues	Cannon Ball Blues is very reminiscent of the Furry Lewis 1928 Victor recording of same title.
thebluesneverdie 19th Nov 2022		78 RPM Johnny Luck - Play Rough / Buzz, Buzz, Buzz	No UK-issue 45 for this. However, 45's were available from Canada (Columbia), Norway (Fontana), Holland (Fontana).
thebluesneverdie 19th Nov 2022		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Blacks, Whites And Blues	The accompanying book is always missing from this album.Wonder what happened to these books.The book is rarer than the album.Later collectors did not realise that the album was issued with the accompanying book.
thebluesneverdie 19th Nov 2022		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The History Of Rock Volume Thirty Five	Redbone had more than one hit.
thebluesneverdie 4th Sep 2022		78 RPM "T" Texas Tyler - I'll Hate Myself Tomorrow (For Loving You Tonight) / Goodnight Waltz	This item seems to have been issued with two different "B" sides, i.e., "A Colored Child's Funeral" and also "Goodnight Waltz". Wonder why this was so? Hank Williams had a record out at the same time on MGM, entitled "The Funeral", under the name of Luke The Drifter. Perhaps this was the reason for the change?
thebluesneverdie 23rd Dec 2021		Vinyl Album Elvis Presley - Rock 'N' Roll	The hyphen in "Presl-ey" was an error in first prints.Printing was stopped and corrected.Hyphenated name on sleeve are therefore mega-rare,though not particularly desirable i.e.no extra cash ever paid for the erroneous printing.
thebluesneverdie 16th Nov 2021		Vinyl Album Dean Hightower - Guitar: Twangy	Artist is actually Jazz/Swing/Blues guitarist,George Barnes,long-time studio/session musician/Passed away 1977.
thebluesneverdie 8th Oct 2020		Vinyl Album Humble Pie - Smokin'	Was this the album where the buyer received a "flicker" book of roach cards?.
thebluesneverdie 18th Jul 2018		78 RPM The Zodiacs - Secrets / The Yum-Yum Song (From The Film "The Bank Raider")	Anyone ever seen a 45 rpm issue of this??.
thebluesneverdie 18th Jul 2018		78 RPM The Zodiacs - Why Don't They Understand / The Game Of Love	There is a picture of this on "Popsike",and a copy for sale on Ebay.The Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide states there was a 45 rpm issue of this,but no one seems to have ever seen a copy on a 45.
thebluesneverdie 23rd Sep 2017		78 RPM Billie Holiday - I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues / Yesterdays	"Yesterdays" was featured in the movie and soundtrack of "Fritz The Cat" in the Harlem scenario.
thebluesneverdie 27th Jul 2017		Vinyl Album The Carter Family - Amercian Epic: The Best Of The Carter Family	The comments made by Sladesounds are absolutely correct. So many historical recordings such as these are treated in a way that would display the compiler as someone who believed the music was, at best, a secondary type of music where no one would take notice anyway. A far cry from the days of Folkways, sadly.
thebluesneverdie 30th Apr 2017		78 RPM Elvis Presley - Heartbreak Hotel	Friend of mine has the other half to this (i.e."I Was The One").
thebluesneverdie 25th Mar 2017		78 RPM Jimmie Rodgers - Blue Yodel / Away Out On The Mountain	All of the Zonophone 5000 & 6000 series that were still available at the time of the merge were re-issued on the Regal-Zonophone "T" series,the "T" prefix being followed by the original Zonophone cat.no. N.B.There may have been some Zonophone issues deleted at the time of the merge that did not subsequently become issued as a "T" prefix Regal-Zonophone re-issue.
thebluesneverdie 15th Feb 2017		78 RPM T-Bone Walker - I'm Still In Love With You / Sail On Boogie	Rhumboogie was the name of the nightclub where T-Bone was resident at this time, and owned their own record label. The records could be purchased at the nightclub, as well as at local stores. There was another version of "I'm Still In Love With You" recorded later in the 40's, that featured Baby Davis as the female duettist. She was married to Eddie Skaggs, a friend of T-Bone.
thebluesneverdie 21st Dec 2016		Vinyl Album Kaleidoscope [USA] - Bacon From Mars	US title was "Beacon From Mars".
thebluesneverdie 14th Oct 2016		78 RPM Tommy Durden And The Westernaires - Crossroads / Hula Boogie	Would this be the Tommy Durden who co-wrote "Heartbreak Hotel"?.
thebluesneverdie 12th Sep 2016		78 RPM Vernon Dalhart - The Wreck Of The Royal Palm / The Wreck Of The Number Nine	There is indeed a prefix of "S", as stated, i.e. S2001 (underneath is a very small letter "N"). Apologies for the omission.
