[78-L] White Cliffs Of Dover

[Kristjan Saag]

Thanks, Trevor.
What I'm after is whether there were weekly record issues in Britain at 
the time. I have a copy of Melody Maker from 1931 which shows bimonthly 
issue dates for major labels (Decca, Columbia etc). Melody Maker was a 
monthly then, but in 1942 it was a weekly magazine, and my guess is that 
the music industry adopted its release pattern after the possibility to 
advertise in leading music magazines.
So if anyone has a 1942 copy of Melody Maker, preferably from the month 
of April, it'd be of great help. The 1942 MM:s put up for sale on e-bay 
only show the cover of the magazine, and I probably won't have time to 
order a copy to see for myself. (Need this info for an upcoming radio 
programme).
