[78-L] Mills Blue Rhythm Band on Royale in 1947

[Han Enderman]

The 4 titles by MBRB from 20 May 1947 (Blue Rhythm Swing/Blues/Jam/Bebop)
were issued on English Parlophone.

They are reported to have been issued on Royale 176 & 177, but Jepsen lists only
the Parlophone 78s.
"Mx.nrs" are shown as ROY-176-A/B & 177-A/B, but might be Royale side numbers.

Do Royale 176 & 177 exist, and, if so, are they part of a Royale 100 series?
The MBRB 15 Nov 1947 session is said to be on Royale 205/206. Same problems.
Maybe the records were made for the European market?

Many black Royale issues show 3 nrs on the labels:
Issue nr at 3h, and another nr, plus a mx between brackets, at 9h (poss. referring
to a previous Varsity issue).
