[78-L] "Zulu's Ball" was Gennett labels

[Malcolm Rockwell]

The Russ Shor article is somewhat dated. I have a label copy of Gennett 
5276-A "That Sweet Something Dear" which proves the existence of the 
record. The photo shows the label, a runout groove and the last of the 
recorded grooves, so, unless there has been some digital chicanery done 
here, the picture is genuine. I do not show who I got the jpg, 
unfortunately.
I do not have a photo of 5276-B, which should be "If You Want My Heart 
(You Got to 'Low It Babe)", making the unissued sides from this session 
of October 05, 1923 "When You Leave Me Alone To Pine" (mxes 11632, 
-A-B-C) and "Someday Sweetheart" (mxes 11637, -A-B-C).
