JJ , not necessarily in 78 format.

But I do feel a Dr Johnson's Dictionary Moment coming on for something of the time not listed, but I think Mike has restricted it to British Performers or UK recordings not everything released in the UK - much of which was US sourced.

You will note the five and half years of this was WW2 where things were much impacted, and we were effectively down to two record companies - Decca and EMI. 1946 and 1947 somewhat under the export or die manufacturing and still some rationing. 1948 might have brought the challenger labels and jazz etc specialists.along with (in the US) those new fangled little 45 discs
