Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos 12th Mar 2024		Thanks, scrough! Your 1951-52 HMV catalog with its cut and pasted and, best of all, dated updates is indeed a goldmine! Thanks for letting me have a peek! The release dates for many of the items in the catalog also make clear that releases didn't always come out in the numerical order of the catalog number. I just noticed, for instance, that JO 89 came out in July 1948, JO 90 in November 1948, but JO 91-93 in August 1948.
scrough 12th Mar 2024		Xiph - Traders were supplied with monthly stick-in sheets of new issues to update their catalogues as noted in that catalogue.See 4th image (1398186) which shows some of these, including one from Sept 1952.
xiphophilos 12th Mar 2024		It's great to be able to consult such primary sources! But how could you use a catalog from July 1951 to date JO-276 to Oct. 1951 and JO 298 to April 1952? Are planned future release dates mentioned?
scrough 12th Mar 2024		Han: Is there a source for these dates? In 1951 HMV UK published a trade catalogue containing many dates for JO and other International series - see here. Dates from these pages have been used where available e.g. JO-276/298.
xiphophilos 11th Mar 2024		I've corrected the release date of this record and of the Oscar Peterson to 1953. More corrections may be needed. As you said, Han, some of these dates seem to be guesses. The Eddie Arnold disc JO-396 was released in the US in January 1954, so 1954 seems like a likely release date for the HMV export version. I've corrected the three nearest cat. numbers (up to JO-406) after the Eddy Arnold releases also to 1954.
han enderman 11th Mar 2024		HMV JO-382 - Date should be corrected to 1953 (possibly 1954). 1929 is recording date. To get an indication of the release date (from some immediately available label images), JO-301 by Tampa Red is a 1951 recording (Victor E1- mx), JO-342/354/383 by Oscar Peterson have an E2-mx, and JO-379/384 by Hank Snow (E3-VB-0615/611) are from 1953, so this Chevalier reissue JO-382 dates from the 1950s and probably from 1953/54. In addition to such contemporary recordings, the JO series also contains earlier jazz like Ellington (1940s) and Waller. Looking at later JO issues, JO-417 is by Eddy Arnold (E3-VB-2965) and JO-439 is a 1954 Hank Snow recording (E4-VB-5576). - The date of the label pictured here is later, as this is the last JO label type, without dot in the catnr. - Some JO release dates in this website (see Mike Thomas' website for HMV JO listing) are: JO-18 Hampton (1939), 1948 JO-22 Tommy Dorsey, 1948 JO-89 Fats Waller, 1948 JO-276 Piano Red (E1-mx), Oct 1951. JO-298 Piano Red (E0-mx), Apr 1952. JO-383 Oscar Peterson, 1954 [now corrected to 1953, Mod.] JO-384 Hank Snow, 1953 JO-396 Eddy Arnold, 1954 JO-400 Eddy Arnold, 1954 JO-404 Eartha Kitt, 1953 [now corrected to 1954, because JO-396 is securely dated to 1954. Mod] JO-421 Eddie Fisher, 1953 (E2- 1952 Christmas recordings), so not unlikely released 1953 [Correcetd to 1954. Mod.] JO-464 Bruce Low, 1957 Is there a source for these dates? JO-276/298 show the month of release, and is Oscar Peterson's JO-383 from 1954 (and not 1953)? JO-406 is shown as a 1953 release, but such dates may have been assumed or copied. I searched for "JO" but then I did not find "J.O", so there may be more info in this website. Is it possible to find all releases of the JO series in all spellings?
scrough 4th Jun 2018		The HMV factory in England pressed many records that were intended primarily for export. The JO series (and JOX 12 inch) were some of these. Many of these export records were intended for release in more than one country, so we can't allocate them to a particular country.
KeithS SUBS ● 4th Jun 2018		Worldstamps....in the search box at the top of the page search for JO* (ie with an asterisk) as cat number and you will see everything we have with JO catalogue numbers
Worldstamps 3rd Jun 2018		New to collecting 78rpm Records, Very New to listing my collection. Above Notes are printed on this record label. I had not come across JO on Catalogue entry for English His Master's Voice discs. I added this to my list with some trepidation. Worldstamps
