W.B.lbl 7th Jul 2020		I can attest, having been to Sony Music's archives way in the past . . .



fixbutte 6th Jul 2020		I understand that you are right but before I'll approve your correction, I ask again: From where do you have the information, apparently copied and pasted from somewhere?



Apes Ville ● 6th Jul 2020		"Early 1948 CBS decided to follow Decca and started a separate series for their hillbilly music: the 20000 series on the red Columbia label. By the first of May 1948 all 425 hillbilly records, so far issued in the 35000 series (36840 - 38189), were renumbered as 20001 - 20425. The first "new" record in the 20000 series was 20426 of the Johnson Family Singers, issued on May 3th 1948. Because of the recording ban (no recordings were made between January 1948 - December 1948) all records issued in 1948 (20426 - 20529) had been recorded in 1947 or earlier. Columbia 20530, issued on January 10th, 1949, had songs Ted Daffan recorded on December 27, 1948. Shortly after that date, when tastes changed, Satherley started recording new artists like Jimmy Dickens and George Morgan. Within some years the Columbia 20000 series would have a roster with young promising artists like Marty Robbins, Carl Smith, Lefty Frizzell and numerous others. Due to changes related to rock 'n' roll the 20000 series was discontinued by the end of October 1956." so not 1946 but a re-issue from 1948
