There is some discographical info on clarinetist Billy Krechmer in Jazz Directory:
a Gotham record, cat.nr unknown, recorded 13-4-1950, and
Collector's Club 1001 (St. James infirmary/Muskrat ramble; personnel unknown),
plus some unissued sides.
With minor corr/adds, this is repeated by Bruyninckx, and this was copied by Lord.
I found an image of Collector's Club EP 1102 with 2 additional titles.
Can someone supply the personnel, pres. listed on the back cover?
Also: can someone supply info and/or scans of Collector's Club 1001 (pres. 78rpm)?
Is anything known about this label? Maybe produced by Krechmer?
Anything known about the Gotham issue (or is it actually an unissued session)?
Pres. in 1958 Krechmer issued Ranstead K-100, an LP on his own label,
named after the street where his Philadelphia jazz club was located.
Tune titles/personnel known, but is there more info in the notes about Krechmer
and his club?
