[78-L] English Brunswick 3000 series

[Tim Huskisson]

My 1975 edition of Jazz Records shows an asterisk (*) after the Brunswick
catalogue numbers for records that had US and UK issues with the same Cat.
Number. At least, that is what I have always presumed was Rust's intention,
but nowhere in the book is this explained.

Best regards

Tim Huskisson

UK Brunswick issued a 2900/3000 series in the 20s, with cat.nrs same as the
orig. US Br issues.
Presumably Br(E) did not duplicate every US release.
Examples (i.e. confirmed on US & UK Brunswick):
2937 Cotton Pickers: Milenberg Joys
2990 Nick Lucas
3460 Henderson: Stockhoolm Stomp
3597 Red Nichols: Cornfed
3626 Red Nichols: Feelin'No Pain

But:
Br(A) 3627 Nichols: Riverboat Shuffle / Eccentric was issued on Br(E) 3698.
Contents of Br(E) 3627 (if issued) is not known to me.
Br(A) 3667 is Libby Holman (see Ty's ODP, and confirmed by label image), but
Br(E) 3667 is Clarence Williams, Slow River.
Dodds's Br(A) 3568 (Come On & Stomp) was issued on Br(E) 3681
(and US 3681 is Carter's Orchestra).
Note that Rust does not clearly state which issues are British.

At present there is no doubt that UK issues above 3667 are different from
the US releases
with the same nr.
But can this be confirmed for the Br(E) range 3628-3666 ? 
Does someone know UK issues in this range? Or are there gaps in the
numbering?
And is it known why English Brunswick changed the nrs?
