driftinmatt 18th Jul 2018 | | 78 RPMHobo Jack And His Kentucky Pals - I Feel So Lonesome / You Have Left Me Memories (1954) | Actually, Ray Goins and Jack Adkins himself had contrasting opinions on who the fiddle and bass player on these sides were.
While we're at it, has anyone ever seen the pressing of this record numbered as "1001"? If so, could you PLEASE provide label scans?
I talked to Dick Grant about this, he says a friend of his owns a copy with that numbering - I have had 3 copies of this record, but never seen one labeled 1001.

driftinmatt 18th Jul 2018 | | 78 RPMHarry And Jeanie West - What Would The Profit Be / Sunny Side Of Life | xiphophilos, thanks for your input. I have talked to other scholars who also have no definitive date on this. 1950-1955 seems to be the possible range of years for this record.
Can I ask how you reached your conclusion of ca. 1955? Thanks!

driftinmatt 21st Dec 2017 | | 78 RPMBob Foster And The Driftin' Troubadors - Dealt A Broken Heart / You Cheated Again | Thanks xiphophilos, I had found that same reference myself. Columbia, SC, and 1949, are all coherent with conjectures I have made as to who the fiddle, banjo and electric guitar player might be.
I´ll have to research further before I can safely say anything - but all is starting to line up pretty clearly...
