Comments and Reviews

han enderman 28th Apr 2024		Swing 1 - The French jazz label 'Swing' started with a superlative session in Paris, and its first release (1937) was subsequently also issued on HMV (1938) and Victor (1939), and thus HMV got its stampers directly from Paris.
slholzer 28th Apr 2024		i Have identified at least 4 variants of the label on this disc. There may be more, as this was clearly one of the most popular Swing issues of all time. It originated on Victor and was also issued on various HMV's in several countries. To distinguish the variants note the following features: Typeface: One version has Times New Roman style type, the other three use Sans-Serif style type. The New Roman faced variant also bears the legend Made In France at the 6:00 o;clock position. All the others bear the legend Fabrique En France there. One variant is distinctive for having a solid gold disc in the logo surmounting a "hollow" Swing in black letters outlined in gold. All other versions have a black disc, surmounting a Swing of solid gold letters. This version is also unique in having lower case side designations (a & b) The final distinguishing feature is that some versions have the Side A comp credits in 2 lines, the others have it in one line. The versions I have seen, not necessarily in chronological order are: New Roman type-Made in France Sans Serif type-A&B side designations-2 line comp credits on Side A Sans Serif type-A&B side designations, 1 line comp credit on Side A Gold disc over Hollow black-lettered Swing-a &b side designations
