I suspect that 20s English Brunswick masters have been owned by (what used to 
e U.S.) Decca since the early 1940s and thus are part of this whole tsimmis.
So now UMG owns EMI which owns Capitol which owns Blue Note, United Artists, 
mperial, Liberty and my brain hurts. If they want to buy my EFREM name, I'm 
eady to negotiate.

 Decca were just about the *only* British companies with a significant market

 Glenn Miller's discography might not be consolidated quite yet, but I'm sure

 pre-50s UK artists' output now will be. Off the top of my head, Ambrose may be

 (although I'm not quite certain who the owners are of the 20s Brunswick 
liftophone
 masters--Ambrose's orchestra recorded some in 1927-28).
