[78-L] Transcriptions & the AFM Strike

[Guyotsmith at aol.com]

This would account for World's  reissues during or around the period of the 
ban. Ironically, the one Frank  Luther/Lawrence Quintet World transcription 
I have unsuccessfully sought for the  past forty years was reissued during 
the  "ban era," and I have never been  able to unearth a copy of either the 
original issue or the reissue. With each  passing year, too, there are fewer 
haystacks to search for this  material.

If  anything, the ban hit transcriptions even harder. The big 3 record 
labels  could coast on a handful of releases by plugging the daylights outta  
them.

Were union recording sessions for radio  transcriptions halted by the two 
AFM strikes as well as commercial releases?  Or were they exempt from 
this?Cary  _______________________________________________78-L mailing
