[78-L] Deitrich Fischer-Diskau

BTW - what were D F-D's 78rpm recordings?  Were the EMI db series recordings the earliest?  Any other labels?
  In the past few years many CD's of early recordings (for example a 1948 Wintereise broadcast) have been issued.
  The first I was aware of his recordings were the Electrola LP's (green edges on jackets) which must have been circa 1954.
  Is there an online discography?
THANKS!
Best wishes, Thomas.

Previn was strictly a jazz artist on 78s, as well as conducting MGM soundtrack
material.

artists who made 78s, (and here I mean actually cut 78 rpm records, not tape recordings which were subsequently dubbed to 78 - and
I can't even think of anyone who did that who's still alive).  A very knowledgeable acquaintance has said the Kurt Masur made 78s
but I can find no evidence of that.
