teddyboydwarf 31st Aug 2020		78 RPM Kay Starr - Rock And Roll Waltz / I've Changed My Mind A Thousand Times (1956)	I bought this new (blue label) in the late winter of 1956. Where is it now?
teddyboydwarf 31st Aug 2020		78 RPM Ken Mackintosh - The Buccaneers / Regimental Rock (1957)	Get those arms swinging! Dig those heels in! Left! Right!
teddyboydwarf 31st Aug 2020		78 RPM Elvis Presley - Heartbreak Hotel (1956)	Man! Now that IS rare.
teddyboydwarf 31st Aug 2020		78 RPM David Clews - Bells On Christmas Day / Did Santa Have A Daddy (1955)	Blimey! I've never heard this one.
teddyboydwarf 16th Apr 2020		78 RPM Joyce Shock - Hoopa Hoola / You're Not Losing A Daughter, Mama (1958)	Anyone ever heard this?
teddyboydwarf 27th Dec 2019		78 RPM Jeff Chandler - Half Of My Heart / Hold Me (1957)	Mighty rare, I'd say.
teddyboydwarf 27th Dec 2019		78 RPM Lyn Avalon - Crazy Crazy / Missin' Your Kissin' (1953)	From the same label, and issued at the same time as the great Big Boy, I wonder what this is like - a pre-rocker, perhaps? Anyone ever heard it?
teddyboydwarf 27th Dec 2019		78 RPM Lighthouse All Stars - Big Boy (Part 1) / Big Boy (Concl.) (1953)	Man! That's what I call honking! (Issued on LONDON in May 1953 - so much for rock'n'roll beginning with Haley). Imagine how much this would be worth on a LONDON 45.
teddyboydwarf 14th Oct 2018		78 RPM Norma Douglas - Be It Resolved / Joe He Gone (1957)	Although there's total silence concerning this, I do have a copy on 45. I mention this because neither the 78 nor the 45 has ever appeared on EBay, neither - as far as I know - has anyone seen a copy (at any speed).
teddyboydwarf 13th Oct 2018		78 RPM The Spiders - I'm Slippin' In / I'm Searching (1954)	Surely one of the rarest LONDON releases - 45 or 78.
teddyboydwarf 13th Oct 2018		78 RPM Glenn Miller - (I've Got A Gal In) Kalamazoo / At Last (1942)	Concerning the video of Kalamazoo: You've got to hand it to the Yanks, they're absolutely peerless at this kind of thing. An atmosphere of charm and optimism pervades every second of this glorious item.O. K., the song's silly, but that doesn't detract from the inherent message of happiness and joy.
teddyboydwarf 13th Oct 2018		78 RPM Glenn Miller - (I've Got A Gal In) Kalamazoo / At Last (1942)	Concerning At Last: the most interesting popular singers are those who have the ability to make a happy song sound sad (and a sad song even sadder). Roy Eberle doesn't quite make it, but he has the right idea. Perhaps the principle exponent of this art was Connie Francis.
teddyboydwarf 7th Nov 2016		78 RPM Bobby Please - Your Driver's License, Please / Heartache Street (1957)	Has anyone ever seen a copy of this (on 78)? Does it exist?
teddyboydwarf 14th Mar 2016		78 RPM Joe Morris Orchestra - I Had A Notion / Just Your Way Baby (1954)	Absolutely top-rate r'n'b, with a wallpaper-scraping tenor solo. If only this had come out on a 45! I reckon it would go for £500 or so if it had.
teddyboydwarf 14th Mar 2016		78 RPM T-Bone Walker - The Hustle Is On / Baby Broke My Heart (1954)	Top rate groover. If only it had been released on a 45!
teddyboydwarf 14th Mar 2016		78 RPM Smilin' Joe - ABC's Part 1 / ABC's Part 2 (1954)	If only this had been released one month later! How much would it be worth on a 45?
teddyboydwarf 20th Oct 2015		78 RPM Lighthouse All Stars - Big Boy (Part 1) / Big Boy (Concl.) (1953)	Absolute knockout!
teddyboydwarf 10th Sep 2015		78 RPM The Franz Winkler Trio - Weit Über Dem Meere / Die Alte Schmiede (1949)	Blimey! I bet this didn't sell many copies.
teddyboydwarf 10th Sep 2015		78 RPM Bobby Please - Your Driver's License, Please / Heartache Street (1957)	There's a lot of discussion about the non-existent 45 of this. Can anyone put up a photo. of the 78?
teddyboydwarf 17th Aug 2015		78 RPM Chuck Berry - School Day (Ring! Ring! Goes The Bell) / Deep Feeling (1957)	I bought this new at Bud Headlam's in Whitby in 1959; it was still undeleted then.
