2.) Listening to that record. Unmistakably BIG JEFF

 If you do a search with the Search box on top of this page (Search 78 RPM) and select All on the drop-down menu, it will search not just artists or labels, but also Notes and Comments. So a search of "Big Jeff" in quotation marks will find this discussion. A Search for "Big Jeff" under Artists, however, probably wouldn't turn up this record if the artist was "No Artist Listed". I'm not sure if moderators could fix this or not.

By the way, I'd like to join slholzer in encouraging you all to provide sources for new info wherever possible, especially if what you can share improves on online sites such as The Online Discographical Project. The hyperlink function ∞, which is available on the top of the Edit Your Comment window whenever you write a comment, makes this really easy.

 I tend to agree with 45stalker on how this should probably be handled, but in the end analysis it isn't my website and it should be listed however the administrators think is better. Someone who has the record but doesn't know that the artist is Big Jeff And the Radio Playboys won't be looking for the record under that heading. On the other hand, he may never find the record if he's looking for anything by Big Jeff and it's shown as an anonymous record in the searchable field. If the notes and comments are also searchable, that's not such a problem. Still it boils down to whether the paramount goal is to describe the records as they appear (with pseudonyms intact and blanks left blank), or to catalog them by true identities and composer credits regardless of the label contents, or something in between.

On a slightly different tack, 78-Ron, I would really like to encourage you to be more expansive in your submissions. If you know something that is relevant to the disc that does not appear on the record itself (i.e. that the artist is Big Jeff And The Radio Playboys), your much-appreciated input would be even more valuable if you would share with us how you know the additional information. (Think of this as a Wikipedia for 78s, if you like.) For decades, discographers have been unwisely excused from citing their sources because of the restrictions imposed by the tools they worked with (typewriters, index cards, etc.) and the media they worked in (expensive printed books) and the humongous tasks they were working on.. In this day of word processors, online media and joint efforts, we can and should loosen up and strive for not only raw information but transparency, the ability to weigh information and rely on it (or not) because everybody knows where it came from and to what extent the information may be flawed or guesswork. We put a photo of the label up and we all know exactly what it shows - as transparent as it gets. We offer additions, corrections, opinions - there's room to talk about them and forge a stronger, more reliable resource for all of us. It's a new and better world, let's make the most of it.

 Then shouldn't it be listed as "No Artist Listed" and the info you provided put in the notes?

 No artist credited on label, but the Band is "Big Jeff and the Radio Playboys".
