L_clocks'n'music 30th May 2024		78 RPM Carl Perkins - Lend Me Your Comb / Glad All Over (1957)	To my knowledge this should contain the modified version of "Lend me your comb" with a censored "sugar-booger" in the second bridge
L_clocks'n'music 13th Mar 2024		78 RPM Slim Rhodes - The House Of Sin / Are You Ashamed Of Me (1955)	My copy of this record has a weird defect: For the first 30 seconds the pitch sounds completely normal, but then it suddenly jumps higher in pitch and stays that way until the end of the song. When compared to any online recording of the song it appears to be higher pitched than those first 30 seconds even in the beginning. Perhaps when cutting the master Sam might've corrected the speed during the cutting process after noticing the pitch difference
L_clocks'n'music 27th Oct 2023		78 RPM Carl Perkins - Let The Jukebox Keep On Playing / Gone, Gone, Gone (1955)	Hey there, I think I might have something interesting. I have this 78 with the label variation (as depicted). BUT it's pressed on a very thin, almost flexible material (vinyl?). I've seen someone sell a copy of Sun 198 with this exact characteristic, but I think 224 might be unique that way. Compared to any other 220-series Sun 78 it doesn't nearly feel as brittle, nor as heavy! It also has a big ring of wear from someone trying to play it on an acoustic, which makes me think it's likely NOT just thin shellac. Has anyone else got/heard about a copy of 224 that's remotely similar to mine?

L_clocks'n'music 21st Jun 2023		78 RPM Carl Perkins - Pointed Toe Shoes / Highway Of Love (1959)	This, along with "Y-O-U", "Pink Pedal Pushers", "Levi Jacket" and "I don't see me in your eyes anymore" does indeed exist. Seen copies of all of 'em.
