First started collecting in 1961 when I found that records that didn't get a lot of votes on Murray The K's nightly 'Boss New Sounds' (or whatever it was called) were hard to find! Still at it.

His Grace King Bishop Louis H. Narcisse - Whole World In His Hand
Opinions vary as to the release date, with some sources claiming a 1964 or even 1965 date. However, the label logo strikes me as indicating 1959 - identical to the design on Music City 78-819 but definitely done after Laurie London's hit of 1959.

Miss Doris Parker - God Will Make A Way / Precious Lord
There is another known 78 on this label, recorded in 1955 with an unknown release date, by Bishop Louis H. Narcisse called "It's So Nice To Be Nice", with vocal arrangement on one side and instrumental version on the other.

Theola Kilgord - Look To The Hills / Give Me Wings Lord
In notes accompanying a CD of King Louis H. Narcisse, "It's So Nice To Be Nice", the date of the recording and first release on the Ajax label of this single is given as 1955. However, two later releases on this label are shown here as dating to 1954; obviously one or the other source is off by a year.

15 Year Old Alice Jean - 100 Years From Today / Come Back Home
This appears to have been pressed in February of 1957 based on the delta numbers:
Δ 14394 for "100 Years"
Δ 14395 for "Come Back Home"
However, it wasn't reviewed until June. In May, there was an announcement that Don Barksdale had "formed" the Rhythm label and that he had "two decks" in the stores, this being one of them. Trouble is, the label had already existed for a decade. I think he purchased the label name from Bob Geddins, and that it happened in late 1956 when the Pee Wee's All Stars record came out. The label had been dormant since 1954 before that.

Sugar Pie And Pee Wee - Let's Get Together / If You Take Away Your Love
make1968 has it correct. "Rhythm Recordings" eventually became "Rhythm Records".
