These titles are in Yiddish. The original titles shown are not titles, rather they describe the kinds of songs these are (Side A is a 'Comish Volks Lied', or 'comic folk song'; Side B a 'Comish Couplet ').

jaimeeduardo 21st Jul 2018 | ![](//images.45worlds.com/t/78/all-russian-state-corporation-78-t.jpg) | 78 RPMЯков Скоморовский - Гавайский Блюз / Гавайская Колыбельная (1932) | Russian is an inflected language, which means names can be modified to indicate 'of' or 'by' as part of the name. The closest example in English would be 'John Lennon's ...'. The last name is Lennon, not Lennon's. In the Russian example here, 'Скомороского' is 'Скоморовский' in nominative case, so the entry would be 'Яков Скоморовский' (and 'John Lennon' would be the entry for the English example).
These inflected name forms are seldom encountered on modern labels/title pages, but they appear frequently on older materials. Other Slavic languages, and German also, can have names with endings which are to be removed/altered when included in a name list.
Inflected names appearing in a name list jump out as mistakes for those who read these languages. The inflected forms can only be used within a phrase-like context.
Яков Скоморовский in English is 'Yakov Skomorovsky' (one form among several) (see Wikipedia https://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/ruwiki/127042 etc.)
So the entry should be:
Artist: Яков Скоморовский
Side B title should be: Гавайская Колыбельная ('в' and 'ь' are confused here; 'в В' represent a letter; 'ь Ь' represent a phonetic modifier called a 'soft sign' )
Discogs includes some bad examples not to be followed!
