[78-L] Tempo Records (and Brother Bones)

[Dan Van Landingham]

Was this Tempo Records the same as the one that appeared in the late '40s?The records
were pressed in red vinyl and had a maroon label(the label)?The 78 rpm records were pres-
sed on what looked black vinyl.I had written of this a couple of weeks ago.The LP set had
ten records per album.
