carryonsidney 30th Aug 2018		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - Working Man Blues / Weary Blues (1949)	Further information can be found here at the British Record shop archive
carryonsidney 30th Aug 2018		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - Working Man Blues / Weary Blues (1949)	You can see some related original HL documents regarding these discs here at his website. Note there are 2 more releases yet to be listed. [Mod Edit] Drummer Dave Carey owned 'The Swing Shop' mentioned in link
carryonsidney 30th Aug 2018		78 RPM The Jubalaires - That Old Piano Roll Blues / Mene Mene Tekel (1950)	Possibly: That Old Piano Roll Blues : Cy Coben. (This gives the record a date of 1950, matching similar 78 cat numbers on Capitol. Mene Mene Tekel Harold Rome (1908 – 1993) wrote the song for the long-running musical revue, Pins and Needles,
carryonsidney 26th Jun 2017		78 RPM Roy Vaughan's Boogie Trio - Oval Boogie / Rumble Boogie (1950)	just noticed the label has a date 9th Feb 1950 on it, presume it is recording date, suspect record could have been released quite soon after?
carryonsidney 20th Jun 2017		78 RPM Louis Armstrong's Original Washboard Beaters - Second New Rhythm Style Series, No. 167 & 168 (1938)	I found an online mag from Spring 1936 which reviews & suggests this record was actually Clarence Williams. see here on reading back a page the mag refers to the release as August 1927?
carryonsidney 17th Jun 2017		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - Careless Love / When The Saints Go Marching In (1948)	This record couldn't have come out before his own debut indie pressings. Should be 1950's as Fokeman says.
carryonsidney 17th Jun 2017		78 RPM Red Onion Jazz Babies - Terrible Blues / Santa Claus Blues (1950)	I have a label variation, the background label info is in red instead of green, the label info/ address is different "Released by Jazz Art Society 65 Bramber Rd W. Kensington London, ENG" Which makes me think its earlier than Charing Cross address.
carryonsidney 17th Jun 2017		78 RPM Roy Vaughan's Boogie Trio - Oval Boogie / Rumble Boogie (1950)	Very obscure british jazz band, Dave Carey I assume is the same DC (drummer) who went to record numberous 45's including the Bingo song? [YouTube Video]
carryonsidney 24th May 2017		78 RPM Ruth Rydell - On The Carousel / Someone Is Crying (1954)	Just found the USA original on t'web..
carryonsidney 12th Sep 2016		78 RPM Anne Lloyd, The Sandpiper Singers, Mitchell Miller And Orchestra - On The Good Ship Lollipop / Riddle Song (1952)	I have a yellow vinyl with blue label variation..
carryonsidney 12th Sep 2016		78 RPM Roy Rogers And Dale Evans, The Ranch Hands, Mitch Miller And Orchestra - Let There Be Peace On Earth / Thank You God (1956)	This is a bright yellow vinyl.
carryonsidney 27th Aug 2016		78 RPM Billy Toffel - Tout Le Long Des Rues / The Gipsy (1949)	Hi this tune is mentioned on the web as being recorded in 47 for Decca - possibly France?
carryonsidney 25th Jan 2016		78 RPM Lonnie Johnson - Solid Blues / Rocks In My Bed (1950)	I found this one in the loft the other day and took a quick snap with my phone hence the tilt in photos.
carryonsidney 24th Sep 2015		78 RPM The Shirelles - I Met Him On A Sunday (Ronde-Ronde) / I Want You To Be My Boyfriend (1958)	[YouTube Video]
carryonsidney 17th Jul 2015		78 RPM The Native Boys - Cherrlyn / Strange Love (1955)	[YouTube Video]
carryonsidney 18th Aug 2014		78 RPM The Lonnie Donegan Skiffle Group - Rock Island Line / John Henry (1955)	Just noticed Grahams comment! - answer is Yes, I believe it's something to do with the songs being traditional and therefore out of copyright?
carryonsidney 29th Jul 2014		78 RPM The Jungle Band - Dreamy Blues / Runnin' Wild! (1931)	A book by Mark Tucker which is online on Google books seems to suggest the american disc of this was released in January 1931 simultanesly with the "Feetwarmers" version on OKEH [Duke again] see here. Theres no reason why an English release couldn't be close after, as you could get the acetates across in 4 days by liner in 1930.
carryonsidney 28th Jul 2014		78 RPM Duke Ellington And His Famous Orchestra - Mood Indigo / Runnin' Wild! (1933)	I put up the Jungle Band the other day here. I have reason to believe that the Jungle Band was issued in late 1930 about the same time as this, but release dates are difficult, what isn't, though, is the recording dates. It transpires this was recorded one day before the other. There is a very good webpage detailing the sessions here. So therefore, this record is not a straight reissue as it is a different take.
carryonsidney 26th Jul 2014		78 RPM Walt Disney's Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs - Dwarfs' Yodel Song / Someday My Prince Will Come (1938)	I'm missing one part of the triptych cover.
carryonsidney 25th Jul 2014		78 RPM The Jungle Band - Dreamy Blues / Runnin' Wild! (1931)	The Jungle Band is nom de plume for Duke Ellington Recorded Oct 17, 1930 Brunswick Studio, New York City A side is a track also known as Mood Indigo.
carryonsidney 18th Dec 2013		78 RPM Walt Disney's Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs - With A Smile And A Song / Dig-A-Dig-Dig (1938)	I saw 2 of these today and took a chance not realising there would be three 78's in the set. The 2 I got [515/516] have a blue paper picture sleeve each which would have been joined together in a triptych* book fashion. Lovely labels. *spelling?! (corrected mod.)
carryonsidney 11th Nov 2013		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - Melancholy Blues / The Thin Red Line (1949)	From Humph's own website - you see here a flyer advertising all 5 releases. http://www.humphreylyttelton.com/first-recordings/
carryonsidney 9th Nov 2013		78 RPM Humphrey Lyttelton - Melancholy Blues / The Thin Red Line (1949)	I will make a note to find this disc and scan it, its obvious from labels that this is an "indie" record! Also please note it wasn't the only release either, HL issued about 6/7 78's maybe more, before he was signed to Parlophone.
carryonsidney 31st Oct 2013		78 RPM Freddie Bell And The Bell Boys - Giddy-Up-A Ding Dong / I Said It And I'm Glad (1956)	a couple of other tracks [also on ep] appeared on this sometime in 1956 on this 10" album. I get the feeling that somebody at Mercury would have been kicking themselves for not moving into 45's while the RnR scene was booming!?
carryonsidney 30th Oct 2013		78 RPM Freddie Bell And The Bell Boys - Giddy-Up-A Ding Dong / I Said It And I'm Glad (1956)	A quick look on 45cat shows no UK Mercury 45's before November 1957- so no is the answer probably?
carryonsidney 22nd Sep 2013		78 RPM Fats Domino - The Big Beat / I Want You To Know (1958)	got a label variation HL-P.8575, R/T to the right, different font etc, most notable change is from "Orchestral" to "Instrumental"
carryonsidney 13th Sep 2013		78 RPM Calypso Quintet - Penny-Reel / Chambolina (1958)	I'd love to find one of these at a carboot sale!
carryonsidney 5th Sep 2013		78 RPM Arthur (Guitar Boogie) Smith And His Cracker-Jacks - Cracker Boogie / Boomerang (1949)	its Holland, uk MGM 78's stop in the 1000's in 1959/60.
carryonsidney 3rd Sep 2013		78 RPM Arthur (Guitar Boogie) Smith And His Cracker-Jacks - Cracker Boogie / Boomerang (1949)	says made in Holland on the label in the video
carryonsidney 14th Aug 2013		78 RPM Elvis Presley - Rock 'N Roll (1956)	Amazingly not only rare but super rare? I don't think the b side appears on another 45 or 78 ??
