[David Lennick]

None between the Folk-C&W Majestic of 1950 but the 40s Majestic continued Hit's

The July 30, 1949 Billboard had an ad for the ABC-Eagle album _49'er Songs_ by Marshall: "What Makes Your Head So Red," "Walls Of Zion," "Railroad Cars Are Coming," "Don't You Hear Jersualem Moan," and "I Came From Salem City." "Walls Of Zion" and "Don't You Hear Jerusalem Moan" were also advertised there as on ABC 122.

>>> I just acquired a Majestic 78 (78-141) in their Folk Classic Series. It has a bright green label - tracks were probably recorded in Los Angeles (master numbers are LA-302-A&  LA-302-B). Artist is Charley Marshall (The Old Maverick). Folk singer with guitar. Any idea of a recording or release date?
