Juke Jules SUBS 28th Apr 2013 | | 78 RPMComedy Harmonists - Creole Love Call / Night And Day (1933) | Lovely! 'Comedian' meant something slightly different at that time, implying lighthearted songs

|
Juke Jules SUBS 30th Mar 2013 | | 78 RPMLondon Chamber Orchestra - Capriol (1931) | Recorded 24 Mar '31. Bernard, of whom Warlock was deeply contemptuous, takes all pieces at a very spirited pace in this perfectly creditable reading
|
Juke Jules SUBS 27th Mar 2013 | | 78 RPMBilly Fury - Maybe Tomorrow / Gonna Type A Letter (1959) | Vinyl Sid posted about this and the 78s4FR YouTube account, in the forum

Juke Jules SUBS 17th Mar 2013 | | 78 RPMBillie Holiday - What Is This Thing Called Love? / Don't Explain (1946) | [YouTube Video]
"It is said Billie wrote "Don't Explain" after her husband, Jimmy Monroe, came home one night with lipstick traces on his collar"
Quoted from Wikipedia - Don't Explain (song) which credits the session and musicians:
Session #52: New York, November 8, 1944, Decca, Toots Camarata and His Orchestra, with Russ Case (trumpet), Hymie Schertzer, Jack Cressey (alto saxophone), Larry Binyon and Dave Harris (tenor saxophone), Dave Bowman (piano), Carl Kress (guitar), Haig Stephens (bass), George Wettling (drums), Billie Holiday (vocals), and six strings.
YT also offers a fine Piano trio version from the Carnegie Hall concert of Nov '56. This was one of Holliday's last performances and she was hardly able to perform, but for this number she gave a powerful performance accompanied by Carl Drinkard, Carson Smith and Chico Hamilton
