[78-L] "Buccaneer" lacquers..info please?

[H D Goldman]

Hi David,

I have 3 10" 5 disc sets of Boulton's recordings;  I wish I had a lot more. Two are Victor sets: P10, Indian Music of the SW [ie native American Indians], vol.1 & P49, African Music, Vol. 1.  I also have a 10" set of her work titled "Belgian Congo Records"; label reads "Denis-Roosevelt African Expedition" & published by the expedition.

I'd very much like to know more about her published work & where her materials went.  Perhaps the Univ. of Chicago is a place to start.

I'd also appreciated some insight on the Victor P series in general as I've never see a catalog or list.

Cheers,

duane

Bolton" around the upper circumference, "Buccaneer" hand written across each label, "1936" for date, and non-sequential numbers like 38A backed with 52. Dances, calypso numbers (I think) like "Miss Tidy, Lend Me Your Pigeon" etc..what exactly is the source for these?
