	Jock_Girl A girl who looks good in vinyl Member since Dec 2012 1544 Points Moderator	Picked up a small handful of 78s on Friday -- but some really interesting ones nonetheless. First -- two 1950s releases on a Canadian version of the German Telefunken label Telefunken Canada Given some characteristics of the label and the record itself, these appear to be pressed by London in Canada Next up is an autographed disc with signatures from band leader Mart Kenney, vocalist Art Hallman, and band member Bob Gimby, who would go on to great fame in the 1960s Bluebird B-4689 The most interesting is my discovery of an unknown Canadian release of the first recording by Matt Monroe. At the time he performed as Al Jordan, and recorded as a nameless singer for an el-cheapo label that released 78 rpm EPs of cover versions The Tops Hits of the Month Record Club This release also clears up a lot of mystery about the Canadian Cameo and UK Solataire labels Finally we have a 1948 London Canada release of a re-recording of Lili Marlene by the artist who did it first, Lale Andersen Lale Andersen Not too shabby for $1 a piece Amy
