pandah 30th Aug 2019		Variant label scans added.



mister_tmg 7th Dec 2018		Voice of the Stars No5 was on Regal Zonophone MR 2722. I've created a List of the Voice of the Stars 78s, and added the other releases as "See Also" under each entry. The label for 2,3 and 4 is clearly "Voice Of The Stars". I'd say they are all EMI pressings, but No. 2 has a HMV matrix number - OEA. No. 3 and No. 4 have CA matrix numbers, which were used by the Columbia label. I believe HMV, Columbia and Regal Zonophone were all part of EMI during this period.



liskeard78s 29th Oct 2018		Yes, 1934. Contains what I think may be the earliest film soundtrack on a ''single'' record, Janet Gaynor singing ''IF I HAD A TALKING PICTURE OF YOU'' from ''Sunnyside Up'', 1929. Most of the other films (I looked them all up in a Halliwells book a long time ago) were made about 1933-34. (Laurel & Hardy's entry is from ''Sons Of The Desert''. Charles Laughton appears in - if I remember correctly - ''The Six Wives of Henry VIII''. Can't think what the Gracie Fields one is but the song featured is ''He's Dead But He Won't Lie Down''.) There were five records in the series, VS.2, VS.3, VS.4 and finally another Regal Zono. one possibly MR.1822 or something like that, one each year from 1934-38. The VS ones had special labels, not R.Z. The 1937 one was a ''Coronation Special''. The three VS all appear in 45worlds and should really be linked with this one, i.m.h.o., even if they may not be actual R.Z. issues. Shirley Temple features at the start of three of the series. Without Shirley Temple the whole film industry might have collapsed due to Depression. (That fact from a book titled ''Vinyl Dave's Favourite Record Labels''.)
