getalife 13th Aug 2022		78 RPM The Biltmore Players - Prosperity Song / King's Horses (1931)	Out of curiosity, what is the backward embossed numbers 138, 122 and JW 138 / 125.

getalife 27th Apr 2022		78 RPM Elvis Presley - Jailhouse Rock / Treat Me Nice (1957)	@gjkl78, at bottom of this page “This Record” to the right “Add Image”
getalife 21st Sep 2021		78 RPM Rossini's Accordeon Band - Roll Along, Prairie Moon / Harmonium Horatio (1935)	At the moment no one listed owns this, be good if you could scan and enter your crack one.
getalife 7th Mar 2020		78 RPM Louis And The Hot Five - Don't Forget To Mess Around / I'm Gonna Gitch	Still guessing, Louis and the hot five- Louis Armstrong and the hot five is a bit like Diana Ross and the Supremes - The Supremes, both Louis and Diana were part of the original group then later got to be the front name ( Louis and the hot five was only a five member group including Louis same as the Supremes ).
getalife 6th Mar 2020		78 RPM Louis And The Hot Five - Don't Forget To Mess Around / I'm Gonna Gitch	Looking like it would have something to do with this, only guessing. https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/record/8343
getalife 6th Mar 2020		78 RPM Louis And The Hot Five - Don't Forget To Mess Around / I'm Gonna Gitch	Added the other side. I have no idea other than they could be test tracks, a member with better knowledge will no doubt have the answer. On the other side video it does say Exclusive Okeh record artists Good luck.
getalife 6th Mar 2020		78 RPM Louis And The Hot Five - Don't Forget To Mess Around / I'm Gonna Gitch	https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jwAo6_3bCh0 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o8ABt-QsrL8 Not saying it’s this label, just could be this track
getalife 28th Sep 2019		78 RPM Lonnie Donegan's Skiffle Group - Midnight Special / When The Sun Goes Down (1956)	Lonnie Donegan on eBay, 78 RPM between £3-20 but did not have this one listed.
getalife 18th Mar 2017		78 RPM Frankie Laine - Jezebel / Rose, Rose, I Love You (1951)	I met Norman Luboff when he stayed at Wally Stott's home in the early 60s, gave my mum a signed album. Norman and Wally's family became good friends and remained friends until Norman's passing in 1987.
getalife 24th May 2013		78 RPM Eddie Cochran - Somethin' Else / Boll Weevil Song (1959)	Apart from slight difference in titles, each are credited as composer for “Weevil”, showing my ignorance, Why?. Boll Weevil Song = Cochran, Capehart The Boll Weevil Song = B. Benson, C. Otis (45rpm) Bo Weevil = A. Domino & D. Bartholomew (45rpm)
getalife 23rd May 2013		78 RPM Eddie Cochran - Somethin' Else / Boll Weevil Song (1959)	Not on mine, try the F5 key to refresh, the computer not you?.
getalife 22nd May 2013		78 RPM Eddie Cochran - Somethin' Else / Boll Weevil Song (1959)	All done.
getalife 22nd May 2013		78 RPM Eddie Cochran - Somethin' Else / Boll Weevil Song (1959)	Any better?
getalife 15th May 2013		78 RPM Paul Anka - You Are My Destiny / When I Stop Loving You (That'll Be The Day) (1958)	Can’t take the credit for the edits, Leonard did that bit, I just did the scans, as long as you have the label square in the scanner it should not be to much to edit the scans, again credit to Leonard.
getalife 15th May 2013		78 RPM Paul Anka - You Are My Destiny / When I Stop Loving You (That'll Be The Day) (1958)	Ref: the sleeve, scan half the sleeve then scan the other half, Add as two half images, then they can be edited as one, have a look at “P.B.686” of my collection that have been edited this way.
getalife 13th Feb 2013		78 RPM Amos And Andy (Correll And Gosden) - Is Everybody In Your Family As Dumb As You Is? (1929)	@Louis, if you could upload again, I will edit them and delete the others. Not seeing the original scans, I just re-adjusted those other two.
getalife 13th Feb 2013		78 RPM Amos And Andy (Correll And Gosden) - Is Everybody In Your Family As Dumb As You Is? (1929)	Is this any better?.
getalife 3rd Feb 2013		78 RPM Military Band - Colonel Bogey / In A Persian Market (1927)	@jules, Yes, same two tracks, I have added the sleeve to this page and changed details, hope you don't mind.
getalife 21st Jan 2013		78 RPM Henry Hall - Underneath the Arches (1932)	Wiki has it as being written by Flanagan in 1927 and recorded in 1932, could this be the first test pressings?.
getalife 17th Jan 2013		78 RPM Military Band - Colonel Bogey / In A Persian Market (1927)	@Jules, the back sleeve of Broadcast 136, has Colonel Bogey as the A side?.
getalife 17th Jan 2013		78 RPM Jimmy Young - The Man From Laramie / No Arms Can Ever Hold You (1955)	Thanks lorangrecords, I was focused on the cropping and not the details, double checking after your comment, notice the cat # on this one was also wrong ( F10557. ) have now changed and will take more notice in the future.
getalife 14th Jan 2013		78 RPM Vaughn Monroe - Black Denim Trousers And Motorcycle Boots / All By Myself (1955)	added video [YouTube Video] don't remember this playing at the 59 club.
getalife 9th Jan 2013		78 RPM Banda Municipale - Marcia Reale (1903)	With TheJudge on this, have same logo on the back of 4-2328 and 07967 both on HMV label.
getalife 8th Jan 2013		78 RPM Gilbert Bécaud - Donne-Moi / Mes Mains (1954)	Louis, I can take it on the chin. I take your point on comparisons with other countries and labels, I will not do that in future. Ref your scans, if you could leave a little more room around the label, it would help when cropping, I did not realise you did not have access to paintnet, I’m happy to crop your images and not touch the colour and tone buttons. The coloured image was an attempt to match the eBay photo as a comparison, it was not Art for Art sake and will be removed. One thing I learnt from my business, is not to rely on what your computer screens show, I have had many a customer email a colour swatch to match up to, only to find out it is not the same shade as my customer has showing on their screen, so I make a point of getting them to match from a shade chart and quote the colour reference number, point being, what my screen shows of a labels colour may not be the same as what others see. The two images (4542/3) that you have approved, are your originals that I re-edited back from the edited ones I did, if that makes sense, but do not have you credited with these as I had to add them to the site from paint net, now do you want me to remove my first edits with your credits leaving the 4542/3 images but without your credits? it’s up to you.
getalife 8th Jan 2013		78 RPM Ken Mackintosh - Edwardian / Off Shore (1954)	Thanks Louis, no hard feelings.
getalife 8th Jan 2013		78 RPM Gilbert Bécaud - Donne-Moi / Mes Mains (1954)	@LouisSidney, your input is much appreciated, but any image entered that has not been cropped or for other reasons will be put in the “Need Editing” file and its then up to the mods to edit the image to what they think is best, in your case (not having the information you have) I thought the label looked to light and so I darkened and adjust contrast to what I thought was best, in view of the amount of images in the “Need Editing” file it not practical to PM every edit. Regarding cropping images, it is not always possible to crop some images as they have been scanned to the outer text, rather than the edge of the label (see some of your earlier scans) we the mods have to make the best of what is entered, however, paintnet cropping is easy to pick up, and by doing all the editing yourself it will then by past the “Need Editing”. Although this may sound like I’m having a go at you, it’s not, its just my blunt way of answering questions, so don’t take it personally.
getalife 7th Jan 2013		78 RPM Gilbert Bécaud - Je Veux Te Dire Adieu / Que Toi (1955)	@Juke Jules, if I click on my edited label, it still shows the original image before it was edited, have pressed the F5 key and also the refresh button and still shows the original label.
