> Rodger, I'm delving into that era heavily right now. Have been for
> months. Your list looks pretty complete to me. That's quite a few
> hours of work. If I run across any others in the future I'll try to
> remember to post them. Do you happen to have at hand the dates that
> each label settled with the union? I know Decca settled early because
> they wanted to release the "Oklahoma" Original Cast album. I read just
> yesterday that Decca's first single release after the ban was PISTOL
> PACKIN' MAMA by Bing. Evidently the Dexter recording was made before
> the ban. Was Columbia the other label to settle early? I'll never
> understand why Montreal and Toronto didn't take advantage of the ban
> by recording current songs there. Even Mexico City. And what about
> Honolulu? RayK -----------------------------------------From: "Rodger
> J Holtin" For almost as many years as I've collected 78s I've been
> curious about the records made during the AFM recording ban of
> 1942-44. While we'll probably never know what the renegades like
> Oberstein did during that period, the records made by singers with
> acappella-accompaniment for the major labels is a finite list. With

> https://sinatrafamily.com/session/index.php /> I've made a tentative
> list which I have pasted in below. I've never seen any acappella
> records on Capitol and the only OKeh that I've been able to find is
> one by the Golden Gate Quartet, and I see that Ty's list has a note on
> one of them indicating an August 1942 date. I listed the Four
> Vagabonds on Bluebird as the dates indicate they were recorded during
> the ban. I finally found a copy of Rosie The Riveter and I Had The
> Craziest Dream on 30-0810, but a close listen reveals that it has some
> kind of stringed instrument - I'm guessing a tiple. Years ago I read
> that somebody got by with that since the tiple was not recognized as a
> legitimate instrument by the union. I doubted the story at the time I
> heard it, so perhaps I have finally found that one and proved it to be
> correct. Haven't heard the other sides, so I don't know about them.
> Have also heard that Petrillo was singularly unhappy with this
> situation and called in other unions to stop their members; i.e.:
> Actor's Guild to stop some singers, and IBEW to stop the recording
> engineers. If anybody can confirm or correct those items, I'd like to
> know about that, too. Any additions/corrections/suggestions, let me
