[78-L] MGM-Supertone connection?

[David Lennick]

Okay..one side of this disc is also on Harmony 1009-H and [Client Label] 1072-P, "Gotta Feelin' For You". The other Teddy Joyce side (on 1009H and 1072P) that's in the Columbia Books is "Collegiate Sam" but not shown as being on 1076-P. Date is September 11, 1929.

There shouldn't be any connection with Supertone other than the same artists probably having recorded for both labels.
