HBRALLAN 22nd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMFred Thornton And The Sons Of The Golden West - The Wino Blues / I Wonder Who (1949) | "I Wonder Who" and "The Wino Blues" were originally issued on MELODY TRAIL 218. The A Side was "I Wonder Who" which had MT.218.A2 in the deadwax. It appears to have been remastered for release on 4 STAR, as that release only has - 4* 3392 EV Re - in the deadwax. Whereas, The B Side, "The Wino Blues" used the MELODY TRAIL master for the 4 STAR pressing and therefore only has MT.218.B in the deadwax. Both sides can be heard at INTERNET ACHIVE
