[78-L] Merle Travis on ATLAS 78?

[Joe Scott]

Red Murrell was also on Atlas and very good.
You tend to see a lot that Travis based "That's All" on a sermon he heard, but, as Archie Green figured out and e.g. Alan Lomax not so much, Travis didn't worry about his anecdotes being true. It really went back to "Denomination Blues" by Washington Phillips (1880-1954).
My favorite recording artist for Atlas (while on Atlas) would be Frankie Laine who made some great, great recordings for them apparently in breach of his contract with Mercury.

Just found a Merle Travis record on an ATLAS label 78. I have a ton of Nat king Cole and other pop stars on Atlas, didn't know they also did country. Is there a discography for the Atlas label somewhere online? The only Atlas label records I can find are for the 1980s-1990s jazz label. Thanks!
