New acquisitions. This will generate a few questions from me to the
list, since these are mostly fairly common items, but new to me.
=============
(Lacquer) KTRH. CBS Country Journal. Mr. Randolph. "Texas Brags". Feb.
5, 1949. Anyone remember this series?
(lacquer) KTRH (Houston radio station). Houston Symphony and Richard
Tucker. Dec 7, 1959. No conductor listed.
Aeolian Company (1969 copyright label) 12" SF clay colored shellac. For
some reason I am attracted to these clay colored discs. 55007 Miserere.
Rosa Raisa, Giulio Crimi, chorus. Vocalion Orchestra.
(lacquer) Barcarolle from Tales of Hoffmann. WJZ. 4/1/51. no artist
listed. Some of these lacquers are in nice shape.
(Lacquer) July 15, 1939. WNYC. Beatrice Schroeder. Anyone ever heard of
her? There are a number of copy lacquers, maybe an original. There were
also some commercial 78s that were owned by her that I passed on.
(lacquer) 5/3/40 Beatrice Schroeder again. WJZ. Also copies.
(lacquer) Bill Rose having fun with old tunes while at Julliard. Anyone
know of Bill Rose?
(lacquer) Hindemith Symphonic Metamorphoses, played by Julliard
Orchestra, Dec 19, 1947. I am not sure if I have all 6 sides, or only 5.
The labels are all over the place. Anyone here play in the J Orch in 1947?
(lacquer) City Service Band of America. Oberon Overture 1950. I've seen
transcriptions of these but never a lacquer. Must be a copy.
(lacquer) US Navy School of Music Band. But the label, like so many
others, is a Julliard School of Music Acoustics Department. 1945
more of same, May ??, 1945. Night and Day. Porter-Cliff. Lt. Thurmond,
perhaps, conducting. It is really hard to make out the faded type over
the icons printed on the label.
Disco Doble Columbia. Allesandro Bonci, with autograph etched in the run
out. I assume this was an approval for release.
Peche? Juilio Crimi. SF 10" Aeolion Vocalion, 1916 copyright label
Ninna Nanna, also sung by Crimi. 1921 copyright label.
DF 10" Aeolion Vocalion, 1916 label. Sur le Lac, sung by Maurice
Dambois. Flip side is Elegie.
12" SF A.V. with 1916 label. Samson & Delilah selection. These labels
are so hard to read I am not even going to try. They are faded, small
print, and not very high contrast to begin with. Bad label design.
"When It's Sleepy Time Down South" Phil Spitalni's Music. Helen Rowland,
vocal. SF Hit of the Week. My first one, and this one is in really nice
condition. Looks like it is pressed on thin cardboard. But for 25 cents,
what should you expect?
Paramount 1569. That Old Time Religion, Paramount Jubilee Singers. &
When All the Saints Come Marching In. 1566.
Black Swan 2041-A. (never heard of this label) How Many Times? Joe
Brown's Alabama Band. Sal-o-may is on the reverse.
Gennett 7613-A. Over There. (something) Jazzarimba Orchestra. Birds and
the Brook. Joe Belmont
(English) Columbia DB 1556. For Me, For You. Sung by Hildegarde. That's
all the name she has. with Carroll Gibbons, piano, and his boyfriends.
(I am not making this up). Reverse is Darling, Jevous Aime Beau Coup.
Perfect 15396A/B. Here Comes the Sun, Sam Lanin's Orchestra. I Got
Rhythm. Love clay colored records.
===============
And a few more questions. When did Vocalion make SF records? Especially
classical? Were they trying to imitate Victor by issuing classical in
SF? This appears to be quite late for a SF disc.
OK, enuff. Thanks for reading
