han enderman 31st Jan 2024		Disc(F) 5015 - Country USA is incorrect; this is "European" Disc, from France (should be corrected). [Thanks, has now been fixed. Mod.]



han enderman 25th Sep 2023		Disc(Eu) 5015 - Variant stating "Melo-Jazz / USA Séries" at 12 added for documentary purposes. Note the text "Droits réservés" at 9.



han enderman 25th Sep 2023		Disc(Eu) 5015 - I have added a clearer image of B, with visible evidence that this is the European edition of Disc (rim legend at 7), which I assume is French (some releases on European Disc state "Melo-Jazz / USA Séries" at 12). The original US release omits the reference to Asch below the label name, says 'Made in USA' at 7 and uses a different font (see J of Jesus). In the UK, this record (5015) was released on Melodisc 1190 without side indication (and thus in this database has the sides reversed). While the song title on the labels is "... Barnabus", the title of the lyrics in the US Album (inside back cover) is "... Barnabas". I doubt if the French Discs were released in an Album (see Notes). I have good images of the 3 US discs 5013-5015, from the Roger Misiewicz collection, and if someone makes the entries I will add these.



Mike Gann 25th Sep 2023		Andrew and Gerhart Thrasher left religious music for secular music when they became founding members of The Drifters in 1953.
