Casani Club Orchestra - It's Love Again Part 1 / It's Love Again Part 2
[YouTube Video]

Tracks are actually medleys 3 per side , featuring Charlie Kunz.

Audio has been reprocessed from 78 disc by the uploader, which has improved the sound but lost the warmth of 1930s discs

David Gray - Armchair Melodies
Perhaps we need Light Entertainment World (But a lot of Eric Coates' compositions would fit in a Classical idiom given the size of orchestra performing them).

Ahh the great debate of light opera / operetta vs Opera. Dont we use Classic FM composer list as the main arbitrator ?

The Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill, M.P. - End Of The War In Europe
I am going to suggest that the disc will be the dark plum, with it looking bright in an effort to read the gold lettering. The main other colour His Master's Voice used was the Scarlet one and some were Brown , (any other colours on the red end of the spectrum used ?) Having said that the NT is not far off the normal colour for that tax code stamp - maybe it is a little darker red on normal printing ?

Cheerful Charlie Chester And His Gang - When You Play With Fire / The Old Bazaar In Cairio
[YouTube Video]
Added to YT in 2018 When You Play With Fire is very quiet on electronic reproduction - were Decca Discs better suited to the still mechanical means or Charlie trying to get a particular feel for things ?

Joe Loss - Paul Jones
For some reason I (or my father ) decided to pattern a few (45s mostly) with Grey Electrical Insulation Tape on the label area. No idea why- they didnt have gripper rings so maybe that was a slipping issue

Symphony Orchestra - Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique)
Thankfully (for now) we have only 50 entries for Symphony Orchestra , I was thinking of how the record information shows up in Discograpies - of artists or lables
https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/artist/symphony-orchestra
See discography for SOME inconsistencies of entry

I note for this set D 1191 is not on 78world as yet.

Symphony Orchestra - Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique)
I think for 78world the "symphony orchestra" artist credit is better as Symphony Orchestra Conducted by Albert Coates

Likewise although the composer gets the composer credit and the Labels dont make the record title the full name, we all know these really as Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique) - Op. 74

So should here the composer be included in the title

Symphony Orchestra - Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique)
I have seen sets with an unrelated side on the last one rather than a blank. I think it was possible to buy individual discs as making up a set took time at the factory, and one could almost order a disc a week from ones retailer as one got paid. (though waiting for the next intermezzo a whole seven days could be frustrating. Actually I wonder if sets would be shipped without sleeves for the retailer to make up into their card sleeves ?

Bull Moose Jackson And His Buffalo Bearcats - I Love You Yes I Do / Sneaky Pete
Thanks for the fascinating history. With respect to family history recycling first/second names to subsequent children, that occurs in my family (including using a name when a older born child had died !) as well as attributing some children to other parents (esp. if it was a young daughter had given birth, the parents - or older aunts - would claim the parentage on christening, etc).

With respect to the oft said "couldn't read music," I suspect folk may claim that as to the detail, I know a lot of music theory and notation (passing my sight reading for violin but failing the rest!), but certain rhythms if I see them I cannot get them right in my head. So it probably means seeing (or creating) a full score for all the colouration played from improvisation or from composing at home or on the road was not done, but some idea of where lower notes are, higher ones, their note duration and just as important, the space between the notes in time would be gleaned from seeing some kind of notation but the detail would come from the hearing and playing back and no doubt some adding in of "it feels right" as the compositions were performed, and that is probably easier by ear than writing, or reading from the dots.

Charlie Kunz - Charlie Kunz Medley Of Strauss Waltzes
I Understand the Sterno discs were not "good" recordings , and that they were only Piano. Did Decca use the records then "overdub" rhythm accompaniment ) ( 1382 S 3666 + 9 – 2, S 3667 +9 – ) seems to be the Sterno Equivalent of this one . It is interesting that Decca is running on the "S" matrix prefix here for S.3688 / S.3689 ( are those numbers used on any other Sterno disc- presumably somewhere around 1412ish ?)

Charlie Kunz - Charlie Kunz Medley Of Strauss Waltzes
trying to plot if any Sterno did end up on Rex, or if the Rex ones were re-recordings. Most (not all) earlier Charlie Kunz Rex Discs were re-issued (Same Recordings ?) as Decca Charlie Kunz Revivals , Some Decca Charlie Kunz Revivals used titles ( Same Recordings ? ) of Sterno Disc Sides in a mix and match to new pairings.

I have no idea why I though Rex didnt get acquired by Decca ( a mis thought I have probably had since the age of six that no proof will ever shift from my mind !)

Which would explain some titles ending up on Rex when Rex was owned by The Gramophone Company ?

I am tempted to link the Sterno disc to this. Did Decca Take over Sterno. This disc has a S matrix prefix (but numbers differ from Sterno, Sterno also has its Matrix numbers upside down (as Decca did on 45s in the 1960s) If I wasnt confused before I am now

Symphony Orchestra - Symphony No. 6 In B Minor (Pathétique)
Here is a question. These discs often turn up on their own, sometimes as full albums and sometimes full or part sets. Should the Full Book Set be entered on its own on 78 world as well as the individual discs, or should the Book Set only go on Classical World (and has Classical World ruled that individual discs of a work wont appear there ( though what about Disc 10 which often has the Conclusion of Work 1 and a quick segment or something of a shorter Work 2 on its flip?
