[78-L] Unissued, or?

[Benno Häupl]

Tony Russell says differently. ("Country Music Records - A Discography 1921 -1942") 

p.108: 

ROY BLEDSOE 
Roy Bledsoe, v. acc. unknown

402412-    Memories     OK  unissued 
Matrices 402409/402410, blank in Okeh files, butb known from test-pressings, may be associated 
with this artist. There may also be a connection with John Dilleshaw, who recorded on matrices 
402405 to 402408, but the lerad singer on 402409, and only singer on 402 410, is certainly not 
John Dilleshaw, and may be Bledsoe. For details of 402409/402410 see Unknown Artists (IV) 


p.920: 

UNKNOWN ARTISTS (IV) 
Male v duet: or v-1; acc. two unknowns, g. 
Atlanta, GA               Friday, March 22, 1929

These matrices are blank in the OK files. The lead or solo singer may be Roy Bledsoe, who 
recorded matrices 402411/12, also unissued. The may also be a connection with John Dilleshaw, 
who recorded on matrices 402405 to 402408, and may be one of the guitarists, though he is 
probably not the second vocalist on matrix 402409. The titles are conjectural. 


Strangely, there is a "River Shannon" song and a jailhouse song about "Bad Lee Brown" here 
listed under John Dilleshaw: 

p. 316:

Matrices 402405/06 are uncredited and untitled in OKeh files; the titles given here are hypothetical, 
and the takes derived from test pressings. 

============= 

Question: 
do you have "River Shannon/Bad Lee Brown" by John Dilleshaw (which would be 402405/06) or do 
you actually have 402409/10 which is "Story Of Adam / Jailhouse" (402409/10) ?
