Comments and Reviews


fixbutte 5th Aug 2021		Moved the moderator note (plus the recording date) to the the record notes here because it is of general interest. I have also added December as (presumable) release month for this record. Although John Bolig doesn't list the date (apparently because the info from Victor's "blue history card" for this record is missing), it was most probably released on December 6, 1929 like the following number V-38552: - It was not released before October 1929 because of its recording in mid-September 1929. - It was listed as already issued in Victor's April 1930 Blues and Hot Dance Tunes catalog where V-38578 was featured as the new record of the Memphis Jug Band. - Numerically it was to be released between V-38537 (rel. October 4, 1929) and V-38558 (rel. January 3, 1930) by the Memphis Jug Band. So we have a stronger basis for a release date estimation here than for many records with no official record company information.

fixbutte 4th Aug 2021		If you mean this, V-38552 by Fats Waller was released on December 6, 1929. V-38558 by Memphis Jug Band was released on January 3, 1930. The Bolig Discography does not have full release dates for any records between those catalog nos., it doesn't help. V-38551 is not between V-38552 and V-38558.



Mike Gann 4th Aug 2021		@fixbutte Read our notes for the record.



fixbutte 4th Aug 2021		As you haven't added an accurate release date, Mike Gann, I guess it is missing from John Bolig's Victor Black Label Discography: 22000, 23000, 24000, V-38000, V-38500 and V-40000 Series book. Anyway, as you commented on Victor V-38553, the following number (V-38552 by Fats Waller) was released on December 6, 1929, so the same date seems likely here too.
