han enderman 15th Apr 2024		78 RPM Judy Garland - In-Between / Sweet Sixteen (1939)	Br(E) 0148 - image of original B-side label (black) added (A still missing).
han enderman 15th Apr 2024		78 RPM Lightnin' Hopkins - Unsuccessful Blues / Grieving Blues (1955)	Lightning 104 - image B-side added. This recording first released on Gold Star 673-B as Grievance Blues. Lightning 104 also released as 45rpm. Most likely GS-1057 in the wax (on a not so clear image).
han enderman 15th Apr 2024		78 RPM Earl Hines - Boogie Woogie On St. Louis Blues / Number 19 (1940)	BB B-10674 - added images of the West Coast pressing of the 2nd main label type (with gap at 7). Images should be reordered.
han enderman 15th Apr 2024		78 RPM Lew White - Silent Night / Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (1938)	Victor Album P-2 - The red envelope is the original set, using an earlier label type (no gap in the legend's inner line at 7). The Album image here omits the binding/spine and its inside lists many later albums up to P-125.
han enderman 14th Apr 2024		78 RPM Layton And Johnstone - Hard Hearted Hannah / It Had To Be You (1924)	Co(E) 3511 - A-side image added. Music (Hard Hearted Hannah) is on youtube. B-side image can be seen on discogs.
han enderman 11th Apr 2024		78 RPM Turner Layton - London Pride / Dolores (1941)	Co FB-2665 - A-side image added (B lacking).
han enderman 8th Apr 2024		78 RPM The Carter Family - Picture On The Wall / Amber Tresses (1933)	BB B-5185 - A-side of 2nd buff version added (B still missing). Images should be rearranged. [mod - done]
han enderman 6th Apr 2024		78 RPM Conney's Combo - I Don't Want Your Baby / Won't You Please Come Back (1949)	Freedom 1501 - label images added. Composer of A-side (L.C. Williams) can be added. Related release is Eddie's 1203, with differently spelled titles.
han enderman 6th Apr 2024		78 RPM L. C. Williams - Why Don't You Come Back / I Don't Want You're Baby (1948)	Eddie's 1203 - B-side image added. I think the 'Artist' here is L.C. Williams, and not Connie's Combo. Same misspelling on another image that I have seen. Freedom 1501 is by CONNIE'S COMBO, vocal L.C. Williams. It has both titles spelled slightly differently and composed by L.C. Williams.
han enderman 5th Apr 2024		78 RPM The Missourians - Ozark Mountain Blues / Missouri Moan (1935)	Electrola JF-19 - There is something strange with HMV JF-19. Under Missourians Rust (Jazz Records) lists HMV JF-16 (Market Street/Missouri Moan), JF-19 (Ozark Mountain/Missouri Moan), and JF-21 (Two Hundred Squabble/Swingin' Dem Cats). Duplicating Missouri Moan on JF-19 made this issue not attractive to anyone already having JF-16. Maybe it was an error, or maybe a coupling with the 4th title (with vocal) was rejected and then this coupling was made. But it is also possible that Electrola asked for this coupling and then HMV made it for general use. As could be expected, it did not sell well and I have never seen an image of HMV JF-19 (while I have seen at least one image of all other JFs in the range JF-10-27), while now 2 copies of Electrola JF-19 are shown here. Market Street Stomp & Ozark Mountain Blues are among the hottest records made in the 20s, with fine solos and still with banjo and tuba. The complete Missourians, with the two alt. takes (incl. Ozark Mountain-1), were first released (and can be heard) on a French RCA LP.
han enderman 4th Apr 2024		78 RPM Frank Newton And His Cafe Society Orchestra - The 1939 Super Rhythm Style Series No. 61 & 62 (1939)	Par R-2708 - Original edition label images added. One label with TT stamp. [mod - thanks. edited and re-ordered]
han enderman 4th Apr 2024		78 RPM The Missourians - Ozark Mountain Blues / Missouri Moan (1935)	Electrola JF - The paste-over is clearly visible on the hidden image, and the HMV bottom legend on the other images. I couldn't remember to have seen this before. Lotz's Bilderlexikon, vol.2 p.42-43, shows several "Halbkreisaufkleber auf verschiedenen Fremdmarken", including 2 variants on HMV (DB-2935; B-3653 Paul Robeson). Comment is, that for small orders from related foreign firms (HMV, Victor), for which master pressings were too expensive, these sticker labels were used, often in the same colour (like black on Victor).
han enderman 4th Apr 2024		78 RPM Benny Goodman - The 1941 Super Rhythm Style Series, No. 49 & 50 (1941)	Par R-2805 - main label type #2 images added. The 3 publ. logos on B (as on #1b) confirm that the B with 2 copyright logos is the original one (#1a). On discogs is label type #3 (long rim legend) with additional logos.
han enderman 4th Apr 2024		78 RPM Harry James - The 1942 Super Rhythm-Style Series, No. 45 & 46 (1942)	Par R-2852 - added type #3a labels. Copyright logos as type #2, but without the BIEM logo of type #3b. DT tax code. - Note that there is an irregularity in the present sequence based on tax codes. LT-code B is label type #1a (Victoria first), but its reverse is label type #1b (Chappell first).
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM Beryl Davis - Goodnight, My Beautiful / When You Come To The End Of A Journey (1940)	De F-7333 - I often use Rust-Forbes, British Dance Bands 1911-1945, to establish an approximate date. Matrix of Goodnight is DR-4179. Ambrose recorded DR-4163 & 4189 on 2 & 11 Jan 1940. - Arthur Young recorded many titles with Beryl Young; for ex. DR-4148-51 (Decca F-7336/7409) recorded 29 Dec 1939. - Maybe The Cerebellum can add 1 or 2 label images here?
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM Elizabeth Harding - Moment By Moment / Unknown (1941)	ARS - After xiphophillos' interesting remarks about this label (under Johnny Ingram), I saw that I have images of 2 other recording dates. The first is by Adrian Rollini on a 29 Apr 1938 WABC Paul Whiteman Show broadcast (introducing: Buddy Rich), playing "Undercurrent" and "Chinatown". The label has "Adrian Rollini" typed at 12, so presumably he ordered these recording (I got the label from Rollini biographer/discographer Ate van Delden). The label type is the same as for the Ingram recording, with telephone nr CIRCLE 7-6982 at 5. WABC is typed after "Station" at 3. The second image is the present 1941 "Elizabeth Harding Sings" studio recording I saved in 2005 (probably from ebay). It has a different label type, with new telephone number CIRCLE 6-0141 at 6. Maybe the label name should be ARS.
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM Audrey Jeans - The Bus Stop Song (A Paper Of Pins) / Happiness Street (Corner Sunshine Square) (1955)	De(In) POPE-7061 - Most likely released late 1956.UK release is F-10788.
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM Andrews Sisters - Rum And Coca-Cola / One Meat Ball	De(In) M-2038 - As the UK export issue is dated 1945, we may assume the Indian release date is also 1945.
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM Ted Heath And His Music - Twilight Time / First Jump (1946)	De(In) F-8578 - Released 1946, as UK release date is Feb 1946.
han enderman 29th Mar 2024		78 RPM The Royal Air Force Dance Orchestra - C Jam Blues / Mission To Moscow	De(In) 8568 - Recorded 18 July 1945, and undoubtedly released in UK and India in 1945.
han enderman 28th Mar 2024		78 RPM Goldie Hill - I'm Yvonne (Of The Bayou) / Say Big Boy (1953)	De(In) 28685 - This record is almost certainly from India, for following reasons: 1) Upper rim legend in English with this font was used only in India. 2) 'Decca Record Co.' is absent in the golden band above the hole and below "Supreme Record". This occurs in India in the 1950s. 3) Name of country is not mentioned. 4) Record has cat.nr used in the country that supplied the recording or stamper. As I said before, feature-1 strongly suggests India, but the (early) Indian labels known to me had 'Decca' in the golden band and 'Made in India' at bottom (for ex. F.8568, released 1945). But in 1950 both texts are absent (for ex. F.9968) and this is still the case on F.10324 (1954). In 1955 the POPE.7000 series starts. POPE-7078 (1957) still does not mention India, but F.11277 (1960) does. Decca 28685 was not released in UK and thus did not have an F number, so I assume a stamper was sent from the US and the record retained the US number. The Italian Decca F-series also has an empty golden band, but says 'Made in Italy' at 6.
han enderman 26th Mar 2024		78 RPM Teddy Bunn's Group - You Don't Live Here No More / Ee-Bobaliba (1946)	Gilt-Edge 532 - Original B-side image added. Plus images of the later label type, with different, smaller font (those on discogs are better).
han enderman 26th Mar 2024		78 RPM "Fats" Waller And Bennie Paine - St. Louis Blues / After You've Gone (1936)	HMV B-8496 - Discogs shows a copy that couples #3A-4B, each with a single copyright logo of Francis Day. Such couplings of different label types usually indicate that these types were chronologically consecutive. Types #1-3 have a single publ. logo, but the type #4B I added earlier (#4bB) has 2 copt-logos and thus is later than the copy at discogs (that we can call #4aB). Another (very bad) copy at discogs is type #5a. It has 2 copt-logos on B (as before on #4b), but still a single Francis Day logo on A. This indicates that #4A does not exist with 2 logos. Another characteristic of #5aB is the size of the Chappell logo, smaller than the Francis Day logo (just as on #4bB).
han enderman 26th Mar 2024		78 RPM Cab Calloway - Minnie The Moocher / I'll Get By (1953)	Bell 1006 - Bruyninckx (2015) lists this session as NY c.Apr 1952. Reissued on Classics CD 1287. - There was a 2-2-1942 OK 6634 recording, at the time when OK was produced by Columbia. Canadian equivalents were issued in the Co C-series (but not Minnie), and some US Calloways were issued in the Co 36000 series. On Columbia/CBS/Epic LPs.
han enderman 26th Mar 2024		78 RPM "Fats" Waller And Bennie Paine - St. Louis Blues / After You've Gone (1936)	HMV B-8496 - added images of the first two label types (#1 & 2), with coloured nipper (#2A lacking). Both types are uncommon and not in discogs. Type #3 is already present, and exists with ST tax code. Type #4 has Made in England right of hole, but is known in 2 versions (with different publ. logos on the B-side). Main type #5, with MADE IN ENGLAND, exists in several variants.
han enderman 24th Mar 2024		78 RPM Mississippi Sheiks - Bootleggers' Blues / Loose Like That (1930)	OK 8820 - B-side label image added.
han enderman 23rd Mar 2024		78 RPM Spike Hughes - Six Bells Stampede / Sirocco (1932)	De F-2844 - images of next label type (#2), stating "Manufactured in England", added. Recorded 3 Feb & 5 Feb 1932.
han enderman 23rd Mar 2024		78 RPM David McAlpin - Eileen O'Grady / Back To Athlone And Molly Malone (1931)	De F-2991 - Date is typo (as F-2719 and F-2728 were released Dec 1931 & Jan 1932). Mx GB-4358 recorded prob. 29 Apr 1932; released 1932.
han enderman 23rd Mar 2024		78 RPM Jack Hylton - Same Old Moon / Goodbye Blues (1932)	De F-3216 - 5 Oct 1932 is recording date (to be corrected). Released 1932. B-side image of later printing (with additional publ. logo) added.
han enderman 23rd Mar 2024		78 RPM Jack Hylton - Marching Along Together / She Was Only Somebody's Daughter (Poor Little Orphan Child) (1932)	De F-3148 - 7 Sep 1932 is recording date. Released 1932 (to be corrected).
