rhythmdog 12th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Palmer Sisters - Singing The Story Of Grace / Help Me To Find The Way (1931)	There are no legible images of this record -see
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Tennessee Fiddlers - Cottonwood Reel / Home Sweet Home (1931)	Images
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM James Quintet - Don't Worry / Let's Put Our Hearts On The Table (1950)	Image
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Frankie Marvin And Jimmie Smith - She's Always On My Mind / I'm A Truthful Fellow (True Blue Bill) (1931)	It is not clear whether the second artist on the A side is Jimmie Smith or another name. The B side was released less than a month earlier on Victor 23553
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Charlie Davis [C. W. Davis] - When The Flowers Bloom In The Springtime / Down In A Southern Town (1931)	Images
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Jimmie Smith - Bear Cat Mama From Horner's Corners / She's A Low Down Mama (1931)	Images Jimmie Smith is probably Gene Autry, who also recorded on Timely Tunes as Gene Johnson
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Sam Johnson - I Found A Million Dollar Baby (In A Five And Ten Cent Store) / The One Man Band (1931)	Per the seller "Sam Johnson And His Orchestra" is actually Leonard Joy and His Orchestra. "Ben Friedman's Paramount Hotel Orchestra" is actually Snooks And His Memphis Stompers.
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Sonny Green - Yours Is My Heart Alone / Georgia On My Mind (1931)	S side is Gene Kardos' first record, per seller
rhythmdog 11th Mar 2023		78 RPM Sonny Green - Silvery Arizona Moon / When I Can't Be With You (1931)	Per the seller the B side is by "Blanche Calloway And Her Joy Boys", and the A side by the Sonny Clapp Orchestra.
rhythmdog 10th Mar 2023		78 RPM Freddie Mitchell Orch., Vocal By Sammy Cotton - I Ain't Gonna Worry My Life Anymore / Back Bitin' (1952)	How then would one link this particular Freddie Mitchell record to the Sammy Cotton records? How about "Freddie Mitchell Orch, With Sammy Cotton"? We sometimes lose a lot of information- especially interconnection by being too narrow at 78s with the longer artists' names...Just my opinion. After some consideration, I'm going with exactly what the label says.
rhythmdog 10th Mar 2023		78 RPM Sammy Cotton - Heart Full Of Pain / Cool Playin' Mama (1950)	I would guess this record is from 1950. It uses the same label style as the 600 series, but is numbered oddly - I'm guess the label just took off the 3 from Regal 3270.
rhythmdog 10th Mar 2023		78 RPM Sammy Cotton - Lead On Baby / I Lead The Life I Love (1954)	Although 45s exist of this record, only test press 78s have ever shown up. Two sales of different copies recorded at Popsike. The 45 was released in May of 1954.
rhythmdog 9th Mar 2023		78 RPM Freddie Mitchell Orch., Vocal By Sammy Cotton - I Ain't Gonna Worry My Life Anymore / Back Bitin' (1952)	Labels actually read "Freddie Mitchell Orch. Vocal by Sammy Cotton" However, the 45 reads "Sammy Cotton with Orch."
rhythmdog 8th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Quintones - The Five Little Quints / Midnight Jamboree (1940)	Per notes at Discogs, Coleman Hawkins on sax on "The Five Little Quints", Benny Carter on alto and Buck Clayton on trumpet on "Midnight Jamboree"
rhythmdog 8th Mar 2023		78 RPM Freddie Mitchell Orch. - Roll 'Em Boogie / Louise (1950)	Existence verified, but I can't find any even half-way decent images so far.
rhythmdog 8th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Quintones [Jordan] - Just A Little Loving / The Lonely Telephone (1955)	A group of five brothers named Greene. The label is from Baltimore, Maryland. [YouTube Video] This was never originally on 45 despite being from 1955.
rhythmdog 8th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Carnations [Derby] - Tree In The Meadow / Clown Of The Masquerade (1952)	Only one lousy image. Per Disco-File, this is not the same group as the one on Savoy.
rhythmdog 7th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Gaylords [The Imperials on Savoy] - Go On, Baby / Get Mad Baby (1952)	This group was originally listed as "The Gaylords [Aka The Imperials, and The Ambassadors]. The connection to The Ambassadors on Timely is pretty tenuous: one member of this group sang on The Ambassadors' record is the sum total of the connection. One other member of the Ambassadors is known, and is not from this group. So I propose to ditch "and The Ambassadors]"
rhythmdog 7th Mar 2023		78 RPM Eunice Davis - I'm A Wild West Woman / Evening Train (1951)	Image here
rhythmdog 6th Mar 2023		78 RPM Freddie Mitchell - Easter Boogie / Idaho Boogie (1950)	Also exists in a black design here which I had never seen before, and on which, as Apesville notes, the B side title is "Easter Parade". Both sides show writers on that version, also.
rhythmdog 6th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Falcons [Lyrics] - My Only Love / Now That It's Over (1957)	This group is unrelated to The Falcons from Detroit. They also recorded for Vee Jay as The Lyrics.
rhythmdog 4th Mar 2023		78 RPM The Avons [New York] - You Are So Close To Me / Gonna Catch You Nappin (1957)	Apologies for the very blurry image - it was the best I could find to stand in so we have a thumbnail. Better images at Discogs.
rhythmdog 2nd Mar 2023		78 RPM The Five Scamps - Gonna Buy Myself A Mule / Dance Boogie (1951)	For complicated reasons, this group is somewhat different from the original and future Five Scamps/Scamps, which you can read about here. It is true, however, that Wyatt Griffin, leader on this record, is present on the later Okeh and Peacock singles, and was a founding member of the 40's group catalogued here. Arthur Jackson is also present on the Peacock single. Group on this single: Wyatt Griffin, lead and guitar Arthur Jackson, tenor vocals, sax either Louis Wright or Frank Martin on piano Earl Garnett, vocals, drums Edwin Fountaine, bass vocals, also bassist
rhythmdog 2nd Mar 2023		78 RPM The Five Scamps - Fine Like Wine / How Nice (1949)	"Fine Like Wine" was also issued as by The Velveteers
rhythmdog 2nd Mar 2023		78 RPM The Scamps - The Spider And The Fly / I'll See You In My Dreams (1946)	Unfortunately, there are zero decent images of this, but there is proof of its existence here - that, combined with Marv Goldberg's Notebook on The Scamps, allows it to be entered. Likely only a local release, perhaps sold at live shows.
rhythmdog 2nd Mar 2023		78 RPM The Five Scamps - With All My Heart / Red Hot (1949)	The co-writer of "With All My Heart" is Allen Sherman - yes, the same one who put out the 1962 novelty hit LP "My Son, The Folk Singer". This was his first published tune.
rhythmdog 2nd Mar 2023		78 RPM The Five Scamps - Red Hot / With All My Heart (1954)	The A and B sides are flipped from the original 78 Columbia 30158 as seen on the 45, which uses ZSP 37247 for "Red Hot" and ZSP 37248 for "With All My Heart" Lousy images here and there are offered as proof of the existence of this 78.
rhythmdog 1st Mar 2023		78 RPM The Five Scamps - Fine Like Wine / How Nice (1949)	Some fair images
rhythmdog 1st Mar 2023		78 RPM The Velvetones [40s] - Can You Look Me In The Eyes (And Say We're Thru) / Don't Bring Me No News (1947)	Reviewed 11 October, 1947, along with their previous release.
rhythmdog 1st Mar 2023		78 RPM The Velvetones [40s] - Ask Anyone Who Knows / I Want Some Bread, I Said (1947)	Not reviewed until October 11 in BB
