Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. James Hudson - Miner's Dream Of Home / Don't Go Down The Mine, Dad	Thanks Scrough. This must be the case with one or two other things I have noticed too. No problem - it's all good !
Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. James Hudson - Miner's Dream Of Home / Don't Go Down The Mine, Dad	Sorry Scrough, when I open the page to input a new 78 record I can't see 'an edit to add "Other Cat#s" below "Catalogue Number" Maybe only moderators have that option ? [yes, sorry it's mods only :( ]
Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Alexander Prince - Lost Chord / Il Bacio (1913)	Very good and very interesting . Thank you Scough.
Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. James Hudson - Miner's Dream Of Home / Don't Go Down The Mine, Dad	Thanks very much TheJudge. I'm not sure what you mean by "may best to but the B-side cat# as the 'other' cat# instead." - could you elaborate a bit for me please ? I can't see where that is an option on the 'add a new 78' page for example - maybe I mis-understand though.
Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. James Hudson - Miner's Dream Of Home / Don't Go Down The Mine, Dad	Moderators: 1. This artist has three other records which are recorded as 'Mr' - but without a full stop after the letter 'r'. Should a full stop be added to those to bring all four records together as per the labels ? 2. When there are two different Catalogue numbers on sides 'A' and 'B' should both be inserted using a 'forward slash' (as with this record) ?
Bamboo 11th Jun 2020		78 RPM Alexander Prince - Lost Chord / Il Bacio (1913)	Moderators: 1. I created this record as the Winner label seems to be considered to be separate to the Edison Bell Winner label. 2. Is this Winner label version: https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/record/2488 actually the same recording as the Edison Bell Winner as the two labels seem to have different matrix numbers ?
Bamboo 9th Jun 2020		78 RPM The Band Of H.M. 1st Life Guards - The Contemptibles / The Mad Major (1922)	Very interesting. Thanks JLC135.
Bamboo 9th Jun 2020		78 RPM The Band Of H.M. 1st Life Guards - The Contemptibles / The Mad Major (1922)	JLC135: I forgot to ask, is there a reason for the 'missing dot' I wonder?
Bamboo 7th Jun 2020		78 RPM Jumbo Military Band - The Whistler And His Dog / Coronation Bells (1908)	'A' and 'B' side labels added.
Bamboo 5th Jun 2020		78 RPM Reano's Band - Overture "1812" / Overture "William Tell" (1909)	Note: Catalogue number 'embossed' onto the left hand side of both labels.
Bamboo 5th Jun 2020		78 RPM The Band Of The Garde Republicaine Paris - Washington Post / When The Boys Come Marching By (1908)	Note: The catalogue number is impressed into the shellac (both sides) - as shown in the above photograph.
Bamboo 2nd Jun 2020		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Ffrr Characteristic / Ffrr Characteristic (1948)	Thanks xiphophilos. The first two or three tracks were okay as I couldn't hear them, possibly because the neighbour's dog started howling ...............
Bamboo 1st Jun 2020		78 RPM William Starr - Cuckoo Waltz / Bluebird Polka (1948)	Unsure as to whether the date actually is 1950.
Bamboo 30th May 2020		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Songs Of Our Grandfathers Re-Set In Guinness Time Part 1 / Songs Of Our Grandfathers Re-Set In Guinness Time Part 2	Note: 1) This record may or may not have been made in Ireland. Ireland just seemed to be a reasonable initial 'guess'. 2) This record seems to be connected with a book called 'Songs Of Our Grandfathers Re-Set In Guiness Time' (1st January 1936). The songs on the record have the same words / lyrics as those which appear in the book. The record songs follow the book words in complete 'page to page' order. The book is currently on Amazon (for reference): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Songs-Grandfathers-re-set-Guinness-Time/dp/B0010V9VQC
Bamboo 30th May 2020		78 RPM Mr. L. Rothery - I Want Some Money / Pucker Up And Whistle (1922)	Thank you xiphophilos. Interesting.
Bamboo 29th May 2020		78 RPM Fredk. Granger - The Sheik Of Araby / Georgia (1922)	'A' and 'B' side labels added.
Bamboo 29th May 2020		78 RPM Mr. L. Rothery - I Want Some Money / Pucker Up And Whistle (1922)	Note: Unable to read the names of the artists as a 'stamp' obscures the details.
Bamboo 29th May 2020		78 RPM Alexander Prince - Il Trovatore (1928)	Interestingly, there seems to be a grammar inconsistency / anomaly when the two labels are compared. The words 'With Piano' appear with brackets on the 'A' side, but without brackets on the 'B' side.
Bamboo 29th May 2020		78 RPM Gabrè - Lolita / Allegri Scapoli (1928)	Very good. Thank you scrough.
Bamboo 29th May 2020		78 RPM Joe Richardson's Orchestra - Stumbling / Hortense (1923)	Moderators: Should this date actually be Jan,1923 as it belongs to the second series ? [mod: Well spotted! Updated]
Bamboo 28th May 2020		78 RPM Gabrè - Lolita / Allegri Scapoli (1928)	It could be. It was made in Germany of course. So an export? I don't know the answer at all to be honest - so am happy with what-ever you feel is correct.
Bamboo 28th May 2020		78 RPM Eddie Condon - Black Bottom / Charleston (1950)	1. This Brunswick record seems to be the same songs / Matrix Number versions as the Decca Export record - linked. 2. Does this Brunswick record have a 'stamp' (+PI) attached to side 'A' which is supposed to be unique to Decca records ? I find these two points puzzling.
Bamboo 28th May 2020		78 RPM Univ.-Prof. Dr. F. M. Von Hornbostel - Shinnai "Sekïtori Senryonobori" / Matsumae-Oiwake (1931)	Moderators: Why does the record have 'B. 37035' but this page catalogues it as 'B. 37036' ?
Bamboo 28th May 2020		78 RPM Elisabeth Schumann - Sei Nicht Bös (Do Not Be Cruel) / Nightingale Song (1930)	'A' and 'B' side label variations added.
Bamboo 26th May 2020		78 RPM William Thomas - I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles. / Oh, What A Pal Was Mary. (1920)	'A' and 'B' side label variations added.
Bamboo 25th May 2020		78 RPM Caruso, Abott, Homer, Scotti - Rigoletto (1907)	See also: https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/record/79000
Bamboo 22nd May 2020		78 RPM Mr. Billy Williams - Save A Little One For Me / Meet You One Dark Night (1913)	Thank you very much scrough.
Bamboo 22nd May 2020		78 RPM Basil Maine - Basanio's Speech From "The Merchant Of Venice" / Friar Lawrence's Speech From "Romeo And Juliet" (1930)	Interestingly, the words 'In English' appear at different height positions when the two label sides are compared. (Side 'A' being slightly higher than Side 'B').
Bamboo 21st May 2020		78 RPM [no artist listed] - I'm Off To Charlestown / Mercenery Mary	Actually measures 5 and 3/8th of an inch.
Bamboo 19th May 2020		78 RPM Edith Evans - The Voice Of Poetry (1939)	'A' and 'B' side labels added.
