Comments and Reviews

DeweyGill SUBS ● 6th Sep 2024		I tried, not much luck, and I notice a discogs item has a different set of numbers entirely.
xiphophilos 6th Sep 2024		@DeweyGill: By the way, can you read the take and stamper info stamped under your copy's B side label? The A side says: 3-EAL-361 79726 (take 3, mother EAL, stamper 361, matrix 79726).
xiphophilos 6th Sep 2024		Switched track order. Al Jolson was the bigger star at the time. That's why his song is listed first in The Talking Machine World, May 15, 1921, page 178: Advance Record Bulletins for June, 1921 (i.e., released in late May 1921).
xiphophilos 6th Sep 2024		GJ means it's a July 1921 repress, see https://www.45worlds.com/45worlds/45w_forum_topic_view.php?t=102544&h. The CP code seems to be on the original May 1921 release.
DeweyGill SUBS ● 6th Sep 2024		Oh, Okay. I now see a CP code image on discogs
han enderman 6th Sep 2024		Co A-3382 - I have images with GJ codes in the range A-3381-3393; meaning unknown. Last BV code (i.e. the normal series) I have seen is A-3379, so maybe it was replaced here by GJ, followed by CP & BP. An EV/BP coupling is known for A-3421, but this almost looks like an error.
DeweyGill SUBS ● 6th Sep 2024		Probably a second pressing- GJ code
