Comments and Reviews


Fokeman 19th Jun 2019		Quote: So my guess is that this is a private late 1950s recording by two otherwise unknown people, a Mr. Parsons and a Miss Parkin. We will never know for sure. Yet again, xiphophilos, you've hit the nail on the head. These performers would almost certainly be people who walked in off the street to create a disc for their own amusement. These were the musical equivalent of recording onto a cassette tape; not a mass produced product at all.



xiphophilos 15th Jun 2019		I wonder if the song title on the A side is incorrect too. I can only find a single hit for this song title on Google. In contrast, "Take This Rose" (sic!), a 1924 song by Gus Kahn and Hero de Rance, was recorded by Maurice J. Gunsky in 1926 and released on Victor 20236. Maybe that's where the year 1926 came from: So my guess is that this is a private late 1950s recording by two otherwise unknown people, a Mr. Parsons and a Miss Parkin. We will never know for sure.



xiphophilos 15th Jun 2019		I removed the year. The submitter also dated another acetate to 1926, and that one contained a 1958 Ted Heath recording.



Fokeman 15th Jun 2019		The original recording date or original issue of the record may well have been 1926 but I'm convinced that this is a dub from the original. This was done onto blanks and is more likely to have been done in the 1950s or 1960s than 1920s.



Fokeman 10th Jun 2019		I would hazard a guess that this is actually a disc cut by The Master Sound System, not Systems - See here for another with images...



lorangrecords SUBS 29th Sep 2017		It's the same song (music) as the Elvis Presley song "Surrender".



lorangrecords SUBS 29th Sep 2017		I was totally wrong. Changed to the correct title. Composed by Ernesto De Curtis. Words by Giambattista De Curtis.



lorangrecords SUBS 29th Sep 2017		Turna A Sorrento. sorry Could it be misspelled on the label?



lorangrecords SUBS 29th Sep 2017		Would for sure be Torna A Sorrento. Sorrento is the Italian name for that city.in the very south/west.



xiphophilos 29th Sep 2017		Are you sure that the B title is spelled correctly? What is this record's catalog number?
