TheJudge 29th Feb 2024		78 RPM Vera Lynn - Home Sweet Home / Ma Curly Headed Baby (1950)	Could be because Denmark was under Nazi occupation by the time of the original release and so would not have been available there at that time. Just a thought...
TheJudge 21st Feb 2024		78 RPM Frank And James McCravy - I Want To Dream By The Old Mill Stream / Why Can't We Be Sweethearts (Once Again?) (1931)	I've gone through them and I think I've caught all of them and amended the cat#s accordingly.
TheJudge 7th Jan 2024		78 RPM J. Paques - Flapperette / Hot Piano (1928)	'Enregistrement Electrique' would suggest a French issue or pressing.
TheJudge 21st Nov 2023		78 RPM [no artist listed] - BLANK / BLANK	I wuold say that there's a difference between having something on them (even though it may not be known what or who) and having nothing on them at all.
TheJudge 21st Nov 2023		78 RPM [no artist listed] - BLANK / BLANK	I'm wondering whether we need them here, then. It'd be a bit like having a blank cassette. Perhaps you could put them somewhere on 45spaces?
TheJudge 20th Nov 2023		78 RPM [no artist listed] - BLANK / BLANK	When you say 'blank', do you mean that there's no sound on them or do you just mean that there's nothing on the labels?
TheJudge 12th Nov 2023		78 RPM Banat Tamburitza Orchestra - Ardelanka / Nebesko Kolo (1950)	I think that 'Erdeljanka' is probably the correct spelling.
TheJudge 15th Aug 2023		78 RPM The Three Professors - Yew Stept Owt Offa Dreme (You Stepped Out Of A Dream) / Vulgar Boatman Rock (1956)	Discogs reckons it was Dennis Wilson, who also wrote the TV themes for Steptoe And Son and Fawlty Towers.
TheJudge 4th Jul 2023		78 RPM Ojwang, Okelo And Party - Awinyo Tum Pameya / Paibworo	Have changed this to Uganda, as the disc was distributed by a company in Kampala.
TheJudge 18th Jun 2023		78 RPM Olive Goff - Phyllis Has Such Charming Graces / In Quelle Trine Morbide (1925)	Good work everybody! That's what I call 'collaborative'!
TheJudge 17th Jun 2023		78 RPM Olive Goff - Phyllis Has Such Charming Graces / In Quelle Trine Morbide (1925)	I'd add that someone called Clive is not likely to tbe the artist given that both sides are clearly sung by a woman. I'll remoive the A-side artist but put Jane Wilson as the singer on the B-side. Could the sides be in the opposite order to the one you've submitted? The 'Phyllis' side has '-1' on the cat# and the Puccini has '-2'.
TheJudge 17th Jun 2023		78 RPM Olive Goff - Phyllis Has Such Charming Graces / In Quelle Trine Morbide (1925)	The A-side is from Puccini's opera Manon Lescaut, the song being In quelle trine morbide from Act II. Side B - again from what's on the label - is the song Phyllis Has Such Charming Graces. There is a song of that title dating from the late 17th C., but I don't know if it's this one. Could the singer be called Jane Wilson? There was an American singer of that name, but the dates don't match up with this recording.
TheJudge 4th Mar 2023		78 RPM Paul Whiteman - Avalon (1920)	Corrected.
TheJudge 1st Mar 2023		78 RPM Ruth Wallis - The Dinghy Song / Pull Down The Shade, Marie	The Dinghy Song: [YouTube Video]
TheJudge 26th Jan 2023		78 RPM Little Eva - The Loco-Motion / Leader Of The Pack	If you mean [url=PRM 78-61]this one[/url], the A-side is different.
TheJudge 22nd Jan 2023		78 RPM Various Artists - Aida. No. 31 & 32 (1924)	Part of this album set. Given all the artists listed at that entry, this may be the only practicable way of entering it here.
TheJudge 10th Jan 2023		78 RPM 于飛 (Yu Fei) - 泥娃娃 / 紅花襟上插 (1957)	I think the country on this should be changed to HK. I can't imagine this being released in the PRC, especially at that time. It was recorded in HK too. [Done! Mod.]
TheJudge 24th Oct 2022		78 RPM Charlie Kunz - Charlie Kunz Medley Of Strauss Waltzes (1938)	According to Mike Thomas, Sterno was bought out by Decca & HMV jointly in 1935.
TheJudge 22nd Sep 2022		78 RPM Pierre Bernac - Prison / Jardin Nocturne	I'd put them all under 'Gramophone'.
TheJudge 19th Sep 2022		78 RPM State Opera Orchestra, Berlin - Poet And Peasant (1927)	Corrected.
TheJudge 11th Sep 2022		78 RPM [no artist listed] - Grand Crepitation [Farting] Contest, Part 3 and 4	The story behind (as it were) the recording (or, at least, a version of the story) can be found here
