In the 78discography site,  the 1947 Majestic STUDENT PRINCE set MZ-4 (Paul
Baron Orchestra and Chorus, Genevieve Rowe, Glenn Burris) 

1147/48/49 is ALSO issued by MERCURY 1181/82/83 (Set A82, date ??).

 

Mercury also issued the set as a 10" LP MG 25001, and as 3 45rpm discs
A-82x45 (1949/50).

 

The material in whole or part was also issued on VARSITY 10" VLP 6007,
Royale 10" 1892,

ROYALE EP 137, HALO 50272 (12" LP, side 1, 6 tracks).

 

 

Is it correct that the Majestic and Mercury 78's and subsequent vinyl
releases are the same

recording ??

 

How did Mercury come to issue these Majestic sides ??

 

If anyone has additional information about the re-formed Majestic Records in
Los Angeles

under Gordon Burdge. beyond that provided in my previous query. that is
eagerly sought.

 

Thanks!

Best wishes, Thomas.
