78rpm-maniac 18th Jan 2023		78 RPM Hans Bund - Petersburger Schlittenfahrt / Rusticanella (Lied An Die Hirtin) (1936)	Intresting variant, but it is NOT a testpressing, but a promotional-disc, for airplay in Germany. On the right side is a stamped inscription: Unverkäufliche Musterplatte, that means "promo-copy not for sale". Authentic test records mostly have a white label with handwritten or stamped inscriptions, like the manufacturing-date, artist's name and song title and several numbers, like the matrix numbers.
78rpm-maniac 18th Jan 2023		78 RPM Großes Blasorchester Mit Männerchor - Lore, Lore / Horst-Wessel-Lied (Die Fahne Hoch) (1933)	In my opinion, the sleeve with the SA-Troopers and the marching-band is in any case genuine, authentic. There are two versions one for 10-inch records and one for 12-inch-records, for those Telefunken records. Another question: Is the matrix number for that white-label record machine-stamped or handwritten? If it is machine-stamped, it is a genuine test pressing. Again, I have never seen such a label as a regular label style, so I came to my conclusion, again, that this record is a white-label test record and one of the previous owners had an artistic profession, to paint the inscriptions and the used design on the white labels. Really well done.
78rpm-maniac 18th Jan 2023		78 RPM Kapellmeister Stern Mit Seine Kunstlerkapelle Vom Hotel Adlon - Colombinella (1921)	Hello, correct inscription is: Kapellmeister Stern mit seiner Künstlerkapelle vom Hotel Adlon Berlin, not seine and not Kunstlerkapelle. Best wishes.
78rpm-maniac 15th Jan 2023		78 RPM George Shearing Quintet - Sorry, Wrong Rhumba / Cotton Top (1951)	I have this record with yellow-white label.
78rpm-maniac 15th Jan 2023		78 RPM Dave Brubeck Trio - September Song / Sweet Georgia Brown (1952)	I have the same record, but my label is yellow-white, not red-white.
78rpm-maniac 15th Jan 2023		78 RPM Charlie Ventura Quintet - The 1948 Super Rhythm-Style Series, No. 9/10 (1948)	Correct title is I Surrender, Dear. (mod - Thanks, updated)
78rpm-maniac 11th Jan 2023		78 RPM The Six Swingers - Hot Pie No. 2 (1935)	Seems to be an Export-Issue for Germany. Label-design and the used typesetting looks like the British-used designs.
78rpm-maniac 11th Jan 2023		78 RPM Djungo Reinhardt And The Quintet Of The Hot Club Of France With Stephan Grapelly - Tiger Rag / I Saw Stars	Possibly a misprint. Djungo Reinhardt is Django Reinhardt.
78rpm-maniac 30th Dec 2022		78 RPM Richard Crooks - Preislied / Gralserzählung (1927)	Hmm, a real German issue should be released on Electrola in those days. This record looks british made. Possibly export-pressing ?
78rpm-maniac 28th Dec 2022		78 RPM Karkoff-Orchester - Einmal Sagt Man Sich Adieu / Einmal Im Leben (1929)	I made a mistake. Label is Derby not D.O.5596 [Corrected. mod]
78rpm-maniac 28th Dec 2022		78 RPM John Abriani Mit Seinem Tanz-Orchester - San Francisco / Would You ? (1937)	According to the catalogue-number of that disc, it could be released in 1937.
78rpm-maniac 22nd Nov 2022		78 RPM Pat Boone - Ain't That A Shame / Tennessee Saturday Night (1955)	Please correct the catalogue-number of that German issue. It is L 20027 not L 20023. Thanks [Mod comment. Edited.]
78rpm-maniac 27th Oct 2022		78 RPM Margot Eskens - Cindy, oh Cindy / In dem kleinen Café (Mama, Teach Me To Dance) (1956)	A German version of Eddie Fishers hit Cindy oh Cindy.
78rpm-maniac 26th Oct 2022		78 RPM Harry Hermann - Schwarze Orchideen / Little Tango (1956)	According to the used catalogue-number is this record from 1956. [Mod comment. Edited.]
78rpm-maniac 26th Oct 2022		78 RPM Die Kitty-Sisters - Singender Blues (Singing The Blues) / Du denkst dir nichts dabei (1957)	Singender Blues (Singing the blues). A German coverversion of Guy Mitchell´s hit Singing the blues.
78rpm-maniac 12th Oct 2022		78 RPM Victor Silvester's Strings For Dancing - Fruhlingsstimmen / Kaizerwalzer (1945)	About the inscription on the subject of the recorded music. The word VALS is not German, then it would be written as WALZER.
78rpm-maniac 12th Oct 2022		78 RPM Victor Silvester's Strings For Dancing - Fruhlingsstimmen / Kaizerwalzer (1945)	Possibly pressed in the UK, but for the sale in Scandinavian countries. [Makes sense. Mod.]
78rpm-maniac 27th Aug 2022		78 RPM Efim Schachmeister - Streichholz-Wachtparade / Das ist die Liebe der Matrosen (1932)	Wrong writing on the entry. The name of the bandleader is Efim Schachmeister, not Schachtmeister.
78rpm-maniac 19th Aug 2022		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Im ¾ Takt Durchs Tessin / Monica	Hi. according to the catalogue-number-circle of A 1000 series, it could be released in 1932 or 1933. The artist is anonymous, but i guess it can be the German accordionist Albert Vossen, but i´m not sure to 100%.
78rpm-maniac 16th Aug 2022		78 RPM The Ames Brothers - Song Of The Islands / Hawaiian War Chant (1951)	The German issues by Coral-label started in 1954 through Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft.
78rpm-maniac 15th Aug 2022		78 RPM The Beatles - Lady Madonna / The Inner Light (1968)	Hi, what do you think. Do other Beat groups also exist on Indian 78-rpm-records.?? OK, Beatles is well discovered, also Cliff and the Shadows, Swinging Blue Jeans and Manfred Mann are also known, but what about The Dave Clark Five, Herman´s Hermits, Peter and Gordon, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas, Freddie and The Dreamers, The Hollies and other bands from the EMI-Labelgroup. Or what about Decca, Capitol or London-Artists, like The Tornados, Brian Poole and The Tremeloes, Rolling Stones, some other British or American sixties artists and songs on London India if exist. ?
78rpm-maniac 15th Aug 2022		78 RPM The Beatles - Hey Jude / Revolution	Wow, what an interesting item. My philosophy for such a record. It also could be an acetat-version for radio-station purposes by a DJ or archivist, who cutted from a regular 45-rpm disc or from audio-tape-transfer, not allready for "rip off" purposes, if it doesn´t came directly from Abbey-Road-studios. I´m sure that some DJs or archivists at radio-archives made some acetates for their own, sometimes compiled with favourite songs or something like that. A simple thought by myside, but it also can be totally wrong.
78rpm-maniac 4th Aug 2022		78 RPM Max Pallenberg - Scharfrichter-Couplet / Das Lied Von Der Bachstelze (1927)	German comedian.
78rpm-maniac 4th Aug 2022		78 RPM Enrico Caruso - Love Is Mine / Pourquoi? (1924)	Very nice early Electrola issue with Enrico Caruso.According to my knowledge, Electrola started in Germany as a HMV-subsidiary-company in 1926 ?? Is 1923 the recording-date or the current release date as German Electrola-record ?? I´m a little bit confused.
78rpm-maniac 31st Jul 2022		78 RPM Lou Busch - Zambezi / Rainbow's End (1956)	Lou Busch also used the pseudonym-name Joe "Fingers" Carr on Capitol-records for many piano-ragtime-jazz recordings.
78rpm-maniac 31st Jul 2022		78 RPM Lou Busch - Zambezi / Rainbow's End (1956)	Lou Busch also recorded under the name of Joe "Fingers" Carr many piano-jazz and ragtime-oldtime-jazz recordings on Capitol-records.
78rpm-maniac 19th Jul 2022		78 RPM The Shadows - Rhythm And Greens / The Miracle (1964)	Maybe it will fit perfect in the time-period of 1963-1965, or is my thought completely wrong ?
78rpm-maniac 19th Jul 2022		78 RPM The Shadows - Rhythm And Greens / The Miracle (1964)	A question to the experts/professional-traders in collecting/trading such exotic records. Are there in India on the Columbia-label some other issues by other beat-artists, like The Dave Clark Five, Herman´s Hermits, Peter and Gordon, Billy J. Kramer with The Dakotas, Freddie and The Dreamers, Gerry and The Pacemakers or similar groups.?? Have you ever seen those other beat-groups on India or Philippines 78-rpm-records. ?
78rpm-maniac 25th May 2022		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Mary Had A Little Lamb (1890)	Wow, what a find. There occured a hyphothesis, that Emile Berliner, the inventor of the gramophone and the shellac-record, recorded some records with his own voice but i´m not sure, if that information is confirmed. If Emile Berliner speaks himself on that record, it will be a true music-historical gem. Maybe we need more research and more infos by other collectionists and experts.
78rpm-maniac 25th May 2022		78 RPM Frank Sinatra - Love And Marriage / The Impatient Years (1955)	That song is a Sinatra-classic. Populary known in the 1980s as introductory-music for the US-sitcom "Married with children", with Ed O´Neil as Al Bundy. In Germany credited as "Eine schrecklich nette Familie".
