[78-L] HRS duplicated numbers

[Glenn Longwell]

Geoffrey Wheeler's book lists both but for each of the McPartland sides he notes "originally issued here, then pulled for issue on Decca."

These were recorded for HRS by Decca and I suspect that there was still some money owed to Decca and they repo-ed the masters. The McPartland sides do not appear in a 1953 inventory that is attached to Eli Oberstein's lease of HRS material. Maybe Jack Caiden just wanted to forget the whole business.

Anyone know the story behind HRS using the same catalog numbers twice? I have HRS 1003 & 1004, which are 1939 Rex Stewart sides featuring Django. According to Ty's site, 1003 & 1004 are also Jimmy McPartland recordings originally cut by Decca in 1936.dl_______________________________________________78-L mailing list78-L at klickitat.78online.comhttp://klickitat.78online.com/mailman/listinfo/78-l
