George Slv 22nd Jan 2016		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - The Thing / I Guess I'll Have To Dream The Rest (1950)	Here is the first documentation I have found of a chart position for this record of hers. worldcharts.co.uk Other necessary information: Looking at the CD release I see the UK release dropped one of the verses and was shorter. Anyone have explanations? The full version is on Youtube. That webpage also lists her as having The Telephone Song by teresa brewer, but that is clearly an error.
George Slv 22nd Jan 2016		78 RPM Etienne Paree - Music! Music! Music! / Pagan Love Song (1949)	Posted Billboard comment about the record from Dec 31 '49. Infectious but not entirely successful. Actually the song originated in the 1930s, but Paree's was the first in 1949.
George Slv 18th Jan 2016		78 RPM Etienne Paree - Music! Music! Music! / Pagan Love Song (1949)	Etienne Paree first of 3 versions on YT [YouTube Video] from GeoSilverAway. This is the version that was mocked by Gene Rayburn in New York before the song caught on. The third in the set is Teresa's 1974 RCA recording.
George Slv 5th Jan 2016		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - Copenhagen / Music! Music! Music! (1950)	The actual 78 recording at ~3:16 length. [YouTube Video] Mind you this is likely from a CD.
George Slv 13th Oct 2015		78 RPM Mario Lanza - Ave Maria / Because (1951)	I notice that the soundtrack album of the day omitted Ave Maria and some others, and only had 8 songs. Ave Maria was only issued on the single, rerecorded by RCA, not the movie version. Everyone should realize that there are two compositions of Ave Maria. This one is by Gounod. The other, by Schubert, Lanza also recorded, in Serenade. Did Gounod only arrange this from the Bach melody, or did he compose the vocal melody? Current digital collections bring all the songs back together, digitized from old records. (Not "REMASTERED" for Pete's sake)
George Slv 13th Oct 2015		78 RPM Mario Lanza - Ave Maria / Because (1951)	What's the length of Ave Maria here? The 45 was ~2:36. There's a recording around that's over 4 min with instrumental in the first half. This is not lifted from the movie soundtrack. Was there a different soundtrack album recorded as well?
George Slv 26th May 2015		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - Copenhagen / Music! Music! Music! (1950)	Youtube video from HollywoodMemoir of Teresa performing Music on her first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show, then called The Toast Of The Town. Early 1950. [YouTube Video] It can also be seen at the Teresa Brewer Center. This clip was on a compilation video, but I can't find that now.
George Slv 2nd Jan 2015		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - (Put Another Nickel In) Music! Music! Music! / Gonna Get Along Without You Now (1958)	There is uncertainty about the date of this issue. The Teresa Brewer Center says 1953. Osborne and Hamilton 3rd edition singles says 1963 (ha).
George Slv 12th Aug 2014		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - The Thing / Guess I'll Have To Dream The Rest (1950)	Update: The Cashbox chart only had 10 positions. Loran: Who knows. Assume that's a US release. (You don't mean disco) Anyway she sang it on Ed Sullivan and that's available at Historic Films. To professionals only, for big bucks. Would be good to see.
George Slv 29th Dec 2013		78 RPM Jimmy Forrest And His All Star Combo - Night Train / Bolo Blues (1952)	His name was misspelled on label.
George Slv 5th Aug 2013		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - The Thing / Guess I'll Have To Dream The Rest (1950)	According to the Teresa Brewer Center this reached #20. I can't confirm that, it is not in the Billboard book. Possibly Cashbox.
George Slv 15th Apr 2013		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - The Picnic Song / Let's Have A Party (1950)	Both sides are by a group - Teresa plus Bobby Wayne, Snooky Lanson, Claire Hogan.
George Slv 15th Apr 2013		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - Ol' Man Mose / I Beeped When I Shoulda Bopped (1950)	Her second record. A non-hit prior to Music Music Music. It was released in 1949. Was different in UK?
George Slv 14th Apr 2013		78 RPM Teresa Brewer - When The Train Came In / A Man Wrote A Song (1949)	Her first record.
