[78-L] Francisco Salinas on Columbia

[Glenn Longwell]

Thanks Han.  This answers the question about earlier pressings.  The 2720-X image you have is from 1926, which coincides with the recording year info I had.  Now the question is does someone have this disc and how does it sound?  I don't have any information about actual dates for these sessions.

As for the mother/stamper info nothing looks wrong with it.  Just sounds terrible considering it's an E condition side.  The matrix on Suplica de Amor is 95522 and directly across from that is 2-1.

I have label images of Co 2719-X & 2720-X with green Viva-tonal labels.
2720-X label mentions '13 & '23 patents; 
2719-X is a slightly later pressing/printing with '13 & (single) RE patent.
This will approximately date the pressings (see Note the Notes).
Is mother/stamper information absent or revised on the 1930s blue label issues?

What is the recording date for these Francisco Salinas mxs: 95474 & 95503 ?

>>> I have two Salinas records.  It's my understanding that these were recorded in 1926.  
They are catalog numbers 2719-X and 2720-X.  
However, the labels date to 1936-37 (blue label with COLUMBIA in all caps).  
I don't know when they were actually released - presumably 1926 - but perhaps they were in the catalog for a while or re-released.  
The Gomez discs were from 1928 and I have some with the 1928 (green Viva-Tonal) style label and some with the 1936-37 style label.  
Why am I saying this?  Because one of the Salinas sides, Suplica de Amor on 2720-X sounds like a dub.  
It's awful sounding.  I tried it with both a 2.7 mil and 3.0 mil stylus to see if that had anything to do with it.  
The 2.7 seemed a tiny bit better but still terrible.  All the discs are E or E- condition.  
The other 3 Salinas sides and all 12 Gomez sides I have play beautifully with the 3.0 mil stylus.

My question is whether anyone has this Salinas record, Columbia 2720-X.  
I would be interested to know whether you have an earlier label to know whether this problem existed when first released. 
Could there have been damage to the master and they dubbed it for subsequent releases.
