Mike Gann 17th Nov 2023		Removed the links from this record (Gennett and Perfect) which none are related. The information in the notes pertaining to Victor also has nothing to do with this record.

Whyperion SUBS 2nd Feb 2013		Anyone got a date for this record? 'Comic' sung duet, B side in style of Western (USA) banjo playing. Think it is trying to emulate what may have been popular in 1910s America. Label style normal 1930s Brunswick , but Bottom of Circle is WARNER-BRUNSWICK LTD / MADE IN ENGLAND Date looks to be around 1930, issued on US Brunswick as two sides from previous Victor Discs (with Luther as Bud Billings). And Wiki gives dates of 1928-1931 as the main partnership of Carson with Frank Luther. Their writing partnership is best known perhaps with Luther providing score for Robison's " Barnacle Bill The Sailor." Robison also wrote "The Runaway Train." "His Old Cornet": Is this the first use of "The Cows Went Dry and the Hens Wouldn't Lay" in a song? It was reprised in a different tempo by Carson Robison for Peter Lind Hayes' 1948 "Life Gets Tee-Jus, Don't It?" (Brunswick 04036). For A side: pronunciation Core - Net
