Thought the McPartlands predated the Caiden era but I don't actually have them 
to check on the labels. The Stewarts are definitely HRS, 303 Fifth Avenue NY, 
not Empire Record Corp.

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.

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
