Very pleased as today I got 5 of my most wanted sides......Issy Bonn singing "Goodnight Children Everywhere",,,,,,, Remarkably also Phyllis Robins with "My Daddy"...Beryl Davis' super rare "Dreaming" as well as Billy Thorburn "If Tears Could Bring You Back".....The last of the five was the fantastically elusive "What Do We Care" by Billy Cotton......Cost me a bit but very happy

Were these the actual 78s or audio transfers? And did you enjoy hearing them?

I bet you did! I thought they would be the transfers from King's. Great that you got them. I hope you are able to get the rest... I'll donate if you're going to share the tracks!

I'd also be happy to chip in something if your intention is to share them. Did you get recordings of the B-sides as well, or just the sides that charted?

I met the guy who is doing the transfers last night. He came to my talk. He seems interested in helping you, which is good. Hope you can get the rest!

It’s £20 a side, so I guess that’s why Mike didn’t get the b-sides.
