Comments and Reviews

cyeaman SUBS 11th Jul 2022		Thanks for the information, xiphophilos. I've wondered about these label variations. There are also versions that have the artist's name in a musical scroll, or use distinct fonts for the catalog number. See for instance https://www.discogs.com/master/457823-Hadda-Brooks-Just-A-Little-Blusie-Swingin-The-Boogie .
xiphophilos 10th Jul 2022		The Bihari brothers clearly didn't do much quality control on their labels. What's really confusing, though, is how often they changed Modern Music's label design, see https://www.45worlds.com/78rpm/record/nc347710us. Based on other labels we have here, the red label with the song titles in a large slab serif font should be the original release. Compare, for example, Modern Music 102 and the still a bit earlier label on Modern Music 101. So your copy, cyeaman, seems to be a very early repress that features the original label design on the B side and a slightly newer design (smaller sans serif title fonts) on the A side.
cyeaman SUBS 9th Jul 2022		Added image of B-side printing error, on which catalog # is shown as 114-B and an over-abundance of silver ink was applied. Note that the title is in a different font on this label too.
