[78-L] Keynote reissues on Mercury; Keynote 2000 series ( was Mercury 25073 source/date/performer?

[David Lennick]

There was a calypso album that originally appeared on Keynote and reappeared on 
blue label Mercury 78s and an early LP..the name escapes me. And Josh White's 
Southern Exposure went from Keynote to ten-inch Mercury LP.
