[78-L] Black Diamonds

[David Lewis]

I'm pretty sure this group, or groups, is not the Six Black Diamonds led by Lanin. Who were they? Does anyone have any of these records?I'd particularly like to hear "Ping Ling," but anything will do.
Records were issued as by Black Diamonds, Black Diamond Twins and Black Diamond Serenaders. Matrices with no releases means no releaseknown, but that doesn't mean the track was unissued; it may be under another name, or on an undocumented release.
