xiphophilos 15th Sep 2024		The Dorsey Brothers A: Dixie Dawn Ed Lang's Wonder Orchestra B: I Must Have That Man	Thank you, Han, for looking that up. I was not aware of these Odeon export series. They were then probably marketed all over continental Europe. In any case, I've added Export above.

han enderman 15th Sep 2024		Paul Whiteman A: Reaching For Some-One (And Not Finding Anyone There) B: When My Dreams Come True	Co 1822-D - Added a pair of images of the 2nd pressing (including cleaner A-side).
han enderman 14th Sep 2024		The Dorsey Brothers A: Dixie Dawn Ed Lang's Wonder Orchestra B: I Must Have That Man	Od A-221110 - Lange, Deutsche 78er Discography, 2e Auflage p.33, lists the A.221000 Serie as German export 1927-35, and lists this Odeon under its Venuti title, but not under Dorsey. Text is normally in English. Some are Made in England (by Parlophone). - French Odeons say Made in France or something like that at 6. Lange also lists the A-189000 Serie as German export, and says that several foreign A-series were pressed in Berlin, like the French A-160000 series between 1926-30. I think that the French royalty stamp on A-189267 indicates it was imported from Germany. Earlier printings in this A-189000 series have the Lindström "L" in a square on the labels. Lotz (Bilderlexikon) says that the export series have an A-prefix with 6-digit Cat.nrs.
xiphophilos 14th Sep 2024		The Dorsey Brothers A: Dixie Dawn Ed Lang's Wonder Orchestra B: I Must Have That Man	Are you sure this is not French? Usually, French Odeon releases have an A prefix and 6 digits, and it's also typical for French records that they use a period to separate the thousands: A221.110. I haven't seen a German release with more than 5 digits. On Discogs there's another Odeon release that I suspect is French, submitted by "Monsieur_77" and with what I assume is a French royalty stamp saying "Publications Francis-Day": Odeon A 189267.

cyeaman SUBS 14th Sep 2024		"Fats" Waller And His Rhythm A: Dream Man (Make Me Dream Some More) B: I'm Growing Fonder Of You	Some personnel corrections to note: 1. Although he doubled on clarinet and tenor sax on two other recordings on this date ("If It Isn't Love" and "Breakin' The Ice"), Gene Sedric played only clarinet on these sides. 2. Although Harry Dial played drums on both sides, he played vibes only on "I'm Growing Fonder Of You". Source: ""Fats" in Fact: A Bio-discography of Thomas "Fats" Waller" by Laurie Wright.
cyeaman SUBS 14th Sep 2024		Paul Whiteman A: Sunshine (Luz Del Sol) B: Back In Your Own Back Yard (De Vuelta Al Hogar)	On December 12, 1941, more than 13 years after this record was released, Victor issued album P-100, "A Souvenir Program by Paul Whiteman". That album included an alternate take of "Back In Your Own Back Yard" (take 4). In typical Bix fashion, there is considerable variation in his solos between the two takes.

Whyperion SUBS 14th Sep 2024		Bill Haley And The Saddlemen A: Green Tree Boogie B: Down Deep In My Heart	B Side Direct Play [YouTube Video] YT Notes -"'Bill Haley and the Saddlemen' with "Down Deep In My Heart" recorded from the original 78 rpm US shellac single on Holiday 108. "Down Deep In My Heart" was released in the US in August 1951 as B-side to "Green Tree Boogie". The song was recorded on June 14, 1951 at WVCH Studio in Chester, Pennsylvania with Bill Haley on vocal and rhythm guitar, Danny Cedrone on electric lead guitar, Billy Williamson on steel guitar, Al Rex on double bass and Johnny Grande on piano. Words and music by Bill Haley. Video recorded by Antoon van Olderen using an audio-technica player model AT-LP1240-USB with an Ortofon 2M 78 MM-stylus and audio captured off air via a Driade D 71 MK II speaker. This video is a recorded live demonstration of a playback of the 78 RPM shellac format on modern day equipment and is shared for archival and research purposes.
Strawberry_Lynn 13th Sep 2024		Elvis Presley With The Jordanaires A: A Mess Of Blues B: The Girl Of My Best Friend	Is this the 78RPM release in which - some time back - there was some doubt whether it existed or not?
