Juke Jules SUBS 12th Oct 2020		78 RPM Salvation Army Staff Band, Melbourne - The Red Shield / Keighley Citadel (1929)	The Salvation Army YouTube channel seems to have everything ever recorded by a Salvation band, including these tracks - pity they don't include any record images [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 25th Sep 2020		78 RPM Sam Wooding - The Wedding Of The Painted Doll (Mariage de Poupée) / C'est Tout Ce Que J'ai (1930)	There's a lot of extra information on this label: what's "Nacio Herb Brown"?
Juke Jules SUBS 25th Sep 2020		78 RPM Ashley And Greene - Penitentiary Bound / Short Life Of Trouble (1933)	Clarence "Tom" Ashley and Clarence Greene. Ashley seems to have been the major figure on this and most of his records, including the many on CDs - see Clarence Ashley Ashley And Green seems to be a typo and not related to the bandleader Clarence Green [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 12th Sep 2020		78 RPM Miss Ada Jones - My Word! (1905)	A slightly bawdy song, and it's amusing to hear her sing with her native Lancashire accent [YouTube Video]

Juke Jules SUBS 10th Sep 2020		78 RPM Adda Örnólfsdóttir Og Smárakvartettinn Í Reykjavík - Bergmál / Bjarni Og Nikkan Hans (1956)	Is this quartet the same as Smárakvartettinn Í Reykjavík ?
Juke Jules SUBS 10th Sep 2020		78 RPM Orquesta - Marcha De Luxemburgo / Polca Danza (1909)	The label clearly shows Orquesta as the name of the performer, but my feeling is that in any catálogo or publicidad it would have been shown as Orquesta Bel Canto For comparison see Orchestre Polydor
Juke Jules SUBS 9th Sep 2020		78 RPM Imperial Military Band [USA] - President Roosevelt's Inauguration Parade (1907)	This would be the 1st President Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President
Juke Jules SUBS 19th Aug 2020		78 RPM Emile Coleman And His Castles By The Sea Orchestra - Moonlight / All By Myself	Emile, or Emil Coleman
Juke Jules SUBS 26th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. or Master Cook - We'll Meet Again (1940)	Now the owner reports that someone knew the guy and says it was recorded in a German PoW camp. Were the prisoners allowed a ration of Bier or Schnapps?
Juke Jules SUBS 26th Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. or Master Cook - We'll Meet Again (1940)	The notice on the rear of the record explains why there's a large hole in the deadwax area. The owner reports that he managed to play it after weighing it down for several days to de-pringle it. He reports that the quality is good. The young man appears to have had a few at the time.
Juke Jules SUBS 23rd Jun 2020		78 RPM Kinderkoor "De Teddy Beertjes" - Boer Wat Zeg Je Van Mijn Kippen / Klompertje En Zijn Wijfje (1956)	Van de Kippe is a dance tune, well known in Holland as a nursery rhyme. Written ca. 1800 by Carel and Willem Balmer. I'd like to hear this version.
Juke Jules SUBS 21st Jun 2020		78 RPM Mr. or Master Cook - We'll Meet Again (1940)	Members of the British Army recorded greetings messages to be delivered to family or friends back home. "Organised by Army Welfare N.A.A.F.I and E.N.S.A. The 78 appears to be microgroove
Juke Jules SUBS 29th May 2020		78 RPM The Hallé Orchestra - "From The New World" Symphony, Op 95 No 5 (1924)	I've got a copy so it can't be rare :-) Don't play it unless you have a decent lightweight moving coil pickup with a diamond stylus, in which case you can play it as much as you like without damage (to the record that is, the stylus will wear though)
Juke Jules SUBS 14th Mar 2020		78 RPM Margaret Whiting - (Disc Jockey Interview) Good Morning Mr. Echo / Good Morning, Mr. Echo	The commercial release of Good Morning, Mr. Echo was on Capitol 1702 and it's interesting to hear a bit of studio talk-back on the video there. Bill Putnam was a ground-breaking audio engineer and here demonstrates his pioneering use of reverb which he achieved by working in his bathroom. The eponymous echo presumably used tape editing techniques. From Wikipedia: "Milton Tasker "Bill" Putnam (February 20, 1920 – April 13, 1989) was an American audio engineer, songwriter, producer, studio designer and businessman, who has been described as "the father of modern recording". I'd love to hear the interview with him about his techniques but it's not yet on YouTube
Juke Jules SUBS 5th Mar 2020		78 RPM April Stevens - Don't Do It / The Sweetest Day (1951)	[YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 3rd Mar 2020		78 RPM Gracie Fields - Count Your Blessings / If I Can Help Somebody (1948)	If I Can Help Somebody seems to have some history: we find an earlier release by Turner Layton, but I wonder where the text came from. Did Alma Bazel Androzzo write tune plus lyrics, or did he set a famous text to music? This song has been quite widely recorded and the text was used in the concluding text of a sermon given by Martin Luther King which was subsequently quoted in the eulogy at his funeral in 1968. [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 31st Dec 2019		78 RPM Roger Williams - Autumn Leaves / Take Care (1955)	@Ee-dEE/Pee-dEE - have you any reason to think this "unknown country" release is not the UK release on HL-U.8214 ? Can you upload a label image?
