Lots of the old Continental sides were reissued on Remington and then on 
Plymouth, a 99 cent label. Some good stuff there. The Ethel Waters sides were 
reissued a number of times and for twelve-inch, needed fillers, so there came 
those Sabby Lewis (and other) recordings, sometimes with completely new titles. 
Ethel was even pressed on a Continental LP with a gatefold cover, meaning it 
probably sold for 6 times as much as when it was on Plymouth.

I've seen a few Paris LPs but never one with that silly looking poodle.
