 UK MGM, like HMV, Columbia & Parlophone, had an international series which could be purchased by special order from UK record shops, and MGM 3011 is a UK-pressed release on it, coupling "Guitar Boogie" with "Boomerang". There are 39 known releases in the MGM 3000 78 rpm series, issued between late 1948 and the Summer of 1952 (there may be later issues). MGM 3037 is also by Arthur Smith, "Mandolin Boogie" c/w "Rhumba Boogie". There are 12 known issues by Billy Eckstine. Clearly the disc shown in the YouTube vid shows a copy of MGM 3011 made in Holland, possibly because trade barriers in The Netherlands at the time meant UK pressings could not be imported there; there is also a New Zealand pressed MGM 3011 on this site. And discogs has pictures of the Dutch, New Zealand AND UK-pressed disc - https://www.discogs.com/Arthur-Guitar-Boogie-Smith-And-His-Cracker-Jacks-Guitar-Boogie-Boomerang/release/11010184. The only person I know who has a listing is Paul Pelletier, who gave me the above information but hasn't revealed the full list. Anyway, this site needs to add MGM 3011 to the UK list, it has been verified.

 There's a mecolico typewritten on the lower segement of the video label too.

Another view of MGM 3011 Boomerang at http://www.antoni-uni-photography.com/History/Antiques/ANTIQUES-OLD-RECORDS/26736583_gW9Nmr/1232804776_VXCbw8N#!i=1232804776&k=VXCbw8N&lb=1&s=XL

Which has both Mecolico and N.C.B logo boxes on

I presume then MGM3011 is a much later UK issue , but whats on the B Side ?
