E2VB-6864   YOU MAKE MY WORLD SO BRIGHT    VICTOR 20-5012
E2VB-6865   TEARS CAME ROLLIN' DOWN              VICTOR 20-5012

Recorded on July 27th, 1952 in St. Louis.
Davis on vocals and piano, John Moore on tenor, Henry Townsend on guitar.
Sorry, but they don't even mention a drummer or bass player, let alone
identify them.
This appears to be Davis' last session. He passed in 1963.

Hello all

Could anyone possibly give me any personnel details for this 78rpm record.?
The copy I have is a prevue/DJ copy.
Titles are: TEARS CAME ROLLIN' DOWN / YOU MAKE MY WORLD SO BRIGHT.

I believe it was cut on 27th July 1952 but I am not sure where, was it
Chicago?

The band appears to be Davis (vocal and piano) with a saxophone, guitar,
bass, drums.

I just don't know who they are.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Matthew Duncan.
