Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Dinah Shore - Nobody's Chasing Me / My Heart Cries For You (1950)	A: With Henri Rene's Orchestra B: With Henri Rene's Orchestra and Chorus
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Eddie Fisher - That's The Chance You Take / Forgive Me (1952)	Comes with Coke Time picture sleeve.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Hugo Winterhalter's Orchestra - Land Of Dreams / Song Of The Barefoot Contessa (1954)	A-side: Piano solo by Eddie Heywood.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Russ Case - Something Sort Of Grandish / When I'm Not Near The Girl I Love (1947)	The top and left side of the labels say, "Double Feature".
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Train / Telephone	Nearest I can tell, this is a sound effects record. It's on a purple label. "Train" is on side 2 and "Telephone" is on side 3, so, this must be part of an album. Y 23 is the only other number on the labels is
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Windesmear Vs. Boomer - Battle At Thunderblow Part 2 / Battle At Thunderblow Part 3	This one has slightly tan/yellowish labels. Give ya an idea of how cheap this is, there aren't even any run-out grooves on this one!
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Windesmear Vs. Boomer - Battle At Thunderblow Part 1 / Battle At Thunderblow Part 4	It just has a sea green label and the above information. It also has the "picture sleeve!"! There's no picture, but it reads in large type, "Battle at Thunderblow The Crepitation Contest Windesmear vs. Boomer". If you haven't heard this before, there must be at least half a dozen versions of it floating around! I doubt this is one of the same 3 I've heard, so far. They ARE very funny, at least the first few times you hear it.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Uncle Tom's Cabin / All The Horsemen Knew Her	I haven't heard this, yet, but I'm assuming it's one of those risqué "party" records from the `50s or `40's. The labels are a dark white/beige and the only info on them is the titles that look to be rubber stamped. The etchings on the one side just say UTC, which is the initials of the track's title, the other side just says RX-428 B.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Bob Tank And His Manhattans - Hunting With Hazel / The Martins And The Coys Gone Hollywood (1937)	The only numbers on the labels are L 0301 and L 0355.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Ben Light And His Surf Club Boys - "The Girl" From Atlantic City / "The Girl" From Atlantic City (1937)	I can only guess it's the same thing on both sides.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Martin And Lewis - [none]	If you've heard their commercial full of very risqué bloopers for their movie, "The Caddy", this is the full length version of it. I think it runs over 3:00. I left the title section blank because there is no title given, just their names.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Flying Saucer Part 1 / Flying Saucer Part 2 (1956)	This is the alternate version of the Buchanan & Goodman hit. It's by them, but, each side has one joke cut out of it to make it a bit shorter than the Luniverse copy. It also lists, "Record No. FS 101" on the labels besides just the number 101 just above that. The only etchings on it are 101 C and 102 C.
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Dave Barry With Sara Berner - Out Of This World Part I / Out Of This World Part II (1956)	The single versions call it, "Out Of This World With Flying Saucers"
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Tom Reddy - What Is This Thing Called Bop? / What Is This Thing Called Bop? (1949)	All of a sudden, this is posted here twice! I DID check first!! There is actually no artist listed, but, above where it should list the artist, it reads, "Narrated by Tom Reddy". Where the artist should go, it just says, "For demonstration purposes only".
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Marty - Marty On Planet Mars (1956)	There are some backwards etchings in the run-out on both sides. One bit on both sides looks like it says, "Set #1", Another is the name "Peter Branek" or maybe "Branck", because of a minor scuff on one side and it being backwards on both sides, I can't quite tell. The third seems to say, "Eorten", or "Earten".
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM Spike Jones And His City Slickers - Where Did My Snowman Go? / Santa Brought Me A Choo Choo (But Daddy's Having All The Fun) (1953)	My promo copy has the same label on both sides, but, I think it might be two different songs. The matrix stamped into the vinyl has a 1B suffix on one side and a 1C suffix on the other, or, does this just refer to two different plates of the same thing?
Break-In Master 25th Feb 2018		78 RPM The Gaylords - Mambo Rock / Plantation Boogie (1955)	Orchestra conducted by George Annis.
Break-In Master 24th Feb 2018		78 RPM R. Crumb And His Keep-On-Truckin' Orchestra - River Blues / Wisconsin Wiggles (1972)	River: NR-2263-1 Wiggles: NR-2263-2
Break-In Master 15th Dec 2017		78 RPM Dick Haymes - Stranger Things Have Happened / Je Vous Aime (1947)	Yes, it usually does.
Break-In Master 14th Dec 2017		78 RPM Dick Haymes - Stranger Things Have Happened / Je Vous Aime (1947)	I never knew it was required to use "and" in place of an ampersand. I was under the impression things were to be written out as they appear on the label.
Break-In Master 14th Dec 2017		78 RPM Dick Haymes - Stranger Things Have Happened / Je Vous Aime (1947)	Thanks for adjusting things, but, if I add a record by Bill Haley & The Comets, should I just say, Bill Haley, and then put & The Comets in the notes?
Break-In Master 14th Dec 2017		78 RPM Dick Haymes - Stranger Things Have Happened / Je Vous Aime (1947)	I added a few other Dick Haymes records tonight, too, and they all showed up in a "Dick Haymes" search, even though the full artist name was much longer. The reason I added it twice is because I thought something went wrong and it didn't get entered. Things don't always work the way they're supposed to with me! I've ha numerous computer problem that techs have never even heard of and have no idea how to fix! I just thought this was going to be another one! [... and I've just fixed the "With Vic Schoen And His Orchestra". Mod.].
Break-In Master 14th Dec 2017		78 RPM Guy Lombardo And His Royal Canadians - Blue Dancing Shoes / There’s Always Someone (That You Can’t Forget) (1953)	Mine doesn't have the parenthesis on the second half of the B-side title.
Break-In Master 14th Dec 2017		78 RPM Dick Haymes - Stranger Things Have Happened / Je Vous Aime (1947)	I've added this record to the site twice and it STILL refuses to show up in the Dick Haymes section!
Break-In Master 30th Nov 2017		78 RPM Mad Milo - Elvis For Xmas / Happy New Year (1956)	Actually, the two sides DO have authorial credits in common.
Break-In Master 19th Nov 2017		78 RPM [no artist listed] - This Is It Or The Purple Passion	The version of the song used is by Eileen Barton And The New Yorkers / National 9103 or Mercury 5392 or MGM K12758.
Break-In Master 19th Nov 2017		78 RPM [no artist listed] - This Is It Or The Purple Passion	As far as I can tell, it pre-dates, "Flying Saucer" by as much as 6 years.
Break-In Master 4th Aug 2017		78 RPM The Beatles - Hey Jude / Revolution (1968)	That's 8:43. I see it has a good bit of run-off left, they could've made it at least another minute longer. But, this is a 12", according to this listing, "Hey Jude" was a 10". With grooves of this size, plus the fact that "Hey Jude" was more "powerful" than a chorus and orchestra, I still have to wonder if they could've made the full 7:11 fit onto a 78. I'm pretty sure the 78's in question that I mentioned used some kind of microgroove. Look at most RCA 45's from the `40's and `50's, they were getting over 3:00 of music into the same space that most 45's were getting only a minute, or so.
Break-In Master 3rd Aug 2017		78 RPM The Beatles - Hey Jude / Revolution (1968)	Off the top of my head, I can't recall the label name, but I remember them being maroon with silver print. The last time I recall seeing them was about 20 years ago. They were part of my grandmother's small collection. Each side had 3 full-length songs totaling just over 9:00 or just under 10:00 per side. They were a series of Christmas songs played on an organ, I'm pretty sure they even had bells (probably tubular). I couldn't believe they ran to 9:00, or so, a side, either, but I timed them! On an automatic player, you could get half an hour of music in one sitting. Back in the late `50's, her son installed outdoor extension speakers from the stereo inside to the nativity scene in the front yard and she'd play those over and over for people going by. At his house, he installed a two-way speaker system leading to the Christmas tree beside his front door and you could talk to the tree and it'd answer back. It was really him in the basement talking with a high voice, but, we thought it was a real talking Christmas tree!
Break-In Master 31st Jul 2017		78 RPM Spike Jones And His City Snickers - The Jones Laughing Record (Including The Flight Of The Bumble Bee) / My Pretty Girl (1946)	I have two different pressings of this. The second one says, VOCAL REFRAIN BY THE BOYS IN THE BACK ROOM WHISTLING BY DR. HORATIO Q. BIRDBATH. Both are the same record number.
