40 year veteran of the pursuit of 78 records, jazz history. Retired insurance lawyer. Long time officer and director of the now defunct
Indianapolis Jazz Club. My discographic work can be seen in multiple label lists on the Online Discographical Project at 78discography. I have a humongous label photo archive (currently 188,000+ photos), but I don't own them and it would be inappropriate to post them here. I will back up positions privately with photos as needed. Biographical articles I wrote on trumpeter Bobby Hackett for Record Research and the IAJRC Journal were for many years the most comprehensive account of his career available in print. (See Bobby Hackett: His Life In Music by Bert Whyatt and George Hulme for the book that surpassed me.)

slholzer 6th Feb 2025		78 RPM Lester Young Quartet - I Never Knew / Just You, Just Me	Should note that some copies of 604A show the composer as Traditional instead of Harry Lim. The Traditional listing is probably more accurate. Harry Lim, as producer, probably saw an opportunity to claim some composer royalties that were otherwise going unclaimed.
slholzer 6th Feb 2025		78 RPM Kansas City Five [Lester Young] - Lester Leaps Again / After Theatre Jump	Some copies of this disc show the A-side composer as Traditional which is probably more accurate than the assignment to Harry Lim, who, as producer, probably saw an opportunity to lay claim to composer royalties that might otherwise go unclaimed.
slholzer 6th Feb 2025		78 RPM The Almanac Singers - Deliver The Goods / Reuben James	Should note that the illustrated label designates this disc as the third disc in album K-112, not K-111 as shown in the notes. The Online Discography Project also shows this disc as part of album K-111, so possibly this is an error on the company's part?
slholzer 6th Feb 2025		78 RPM Jonathan Croft - The Black Blackout / Here We Come	This disc is listed as Keynote 5 in the Online Discography Project and is credited there to Unity Theatre Of Lomdon. Most sets issued by Keynote's predecessor, The Music Room record shop, had three records. Data for the third (probably Keynote 6 if there was one, since #3 is accounted for) is not currently available.
slholzer 6th Feb 2025		78 RPM Paddy Ryan - The Man That Waters The Workers Beer / Brother, Brother Use Your Head	This disc is listed in the Online Discography Project as Keynote 4 and is credited there to the Unity Theatre Of London. Most sets issued by Keynote's predecessor, The Music Room record shop, had three discs, Data for the third (probably numbered Keynote 6 if there was one, as #3 is accounted for) is not currently available.
