	liskeard78s Member since Jul 2017 26 Points	Can anyone help? - About 48 years ago a neighbour gave me a nice bundle of 78s, which I kept and played and played all the time, some more than others of course. My collection got dispersed over the years but more recently I've been lucky enough to find them again. All these years later I can remember that bundle that really started me collecting 78s but I'm especially stuck on this one item . . . There were two 78s by Edmund Hockridge, both PLASTIC Pye Nixa and both (I think) dated 1958 on the labels. One of them was ''Tonight'' which I now have on a 45. The other . . . well I'm sure it wasn't ''More Than Ever'', that being a familiar song at the time which I think I would have remembered now. I'm sure it wasn't ''Love Letters'', again a familiar song. 45worlds shows a good selection but obviously not complete - Hockridge not being most people's favourite! And of course, he not being collectable or valuable, I can't find a discography in ''Record Collector'' price guide. Anyone know?
