[78-L] Joe Meek related 1950s 78s - USA and Canada

[David Lennick]

Mike Preston was on London in Canada but we were getting 45 promos by that time so I dunno.

 

Lonnie Donegan was probably on a Canadian Pye pressing. Mercury 71181 is 1957, derfinitely within the 78 framework for Canada, but I've never seen Lonnie on Canadian (or US) Mercury..it could even still have been on Quality.

 

I think I've seen the Anne Shelton on Canadian Columbia 78.

 

Johnny Duncan on Capitol is adjacent to Stan Freberg's "Wun'erful, Wun'erful (3815) and would have been released on 78 here.
