Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos 20th Apr 2018		Great! I had tried to track down the B side as well, but failed.
fixbutte 19th Apr 2018		Very interesting, xiphophilos. I agree that ГРК 011 at the bottom of the labels is probably not the cat#. I don't know what it means but it seems that only some low numbers were used, like ГРК 94 or урк 4 on the other Грампласттрест records in the database. It seems that we have no idea when this record came out, but the B-side may have been recorded in the first half of the 1920s as well, possibly Hawaiian Memories (Erinnerung an Hawaii) by Vox-Tanz-Orchester, originally released in 1924 on Vox 01109-A, see here.
xiphophilos 18th Apr 2018		I've added the missing info and some notes on F. Kreger a.k.a. Franz Krüger. We have what is probably the same 1922 recording under the name "Das träumende Schneeglöckchen" (composed by Louis Örtel) in the database as Vox 6110. Regarding the B side, I can add that this piece (matrix nr. 5310) was also released as Гавайские Bоспоминания (Memories of Hawaii), a song composed by José Armándola (pseudonym for composer Willi Lautenschläger)(source).
fixbutte 18th Apr 2018		Hi tkonst - I understand that you have translated what the labels say about the artists and what they play. Can you please spell the content of the labels with the correct Cyrillic letters in a new comment, so we can move them to the track list?
tkonst 18th Apr 2018		A Orchestra Solo on Xylophone Kreger B Hawaian Orchestra
tkonst 17th Apr 2018		Its Грампласттрест. [Moved to correct Russian label, mod]
78-Ron 16th Apr 2018		Side B is: Hawaiian Waltz
