The Victor Black Label Discography iv

Foreword

Between 2002 and 2014, Mainspring Press published eleven discographies by Dr. John Bolig.

These works comprehensively documented the issued recordings of the Victor Talking Machine

Company in their Red Seal classical series and black label popular series, as well as other series.

These books were compiled by Bolig over many years through the examination of original

company documents in the Victor archives (now part of Sony) in New York City.

Bolig has generously shared his data with the editors of DAHR for many years, saving us time

in the creation of the online Discography of American Historical Recordings (DAHR). UCSB has

scanned tens of thousands of pages of documents held by the Sony archives to facilitate our

work, but for many years prior Bolig had been traveling to the archives to examine the

documents in person. His examination of these documents has been invaluable to the creation of

his books, as well as of DAHR.

After Mainspring’s publisher, Allan Suon, decided to retire in 2016, the Bolig discographies

went out of print and the rights reverted to Bolig. He and UCSB’s American Discography

Project have decided to oer them to the public in our series of free discography eBooks. Bolig’s

books have been indispensable references for many collectors as checklists to Victor records,

and we hope they continue to be useful long into the future. We are grateful to John and Allan

for their generosity of spirit in blessing the distribution of these works in their new form.

Preface

I am pleased that my previously published discographies will nd new life and a new home

in the American Discography Project as part of their series of eBooks, and my sincere hope is

that they will be of use to a new generation of scholars and others interested in U.S. sound

recording history—a rich area for ongoing study. And I am grateful for the generosity of the

people I have worked with on the UCSB sta, especially Sam Brylawski and David Seubert.

The discographies I compiled are dierent from DAHR in the respect that their editors work to

describe every recording made in the United States in as much detail as they can produce, while

I describe the discs that were produced during recording sessions conducted by the Victor Talk-

ing Machine Company and RCA Victor and their aliates. Only 75% of the Victor Company

recordings made from 1901 to 1958 were actually published, and my lists are ideally suited for

collectors and for librarians in institutions that preserve those discs.

Although my discographies only contain a fraction of the detail that DAHR has unearthed, they

do contain as much evidence as possible about what can be heard on a disc, and I aempted to

The Victor Black Label Discography v

carefully list the full names of lyricists and composers. I rarely list more than nine performers on

a recording, and those people can probably be heard clearly. Listing every member of a

symphony orchestra, e.g., and every member of a chorus would have resulted in printed

discographies of substantial heft and limited usability.

The work being done by DAHR editors and researchers is extraordinary in its detail. The

database is huge, and for the most part it includes information on every single person who may

have been in a room when a disc was made, and what those people were doing. In addition,

DAHR editors make an eort to improve the listings of discs produced by the various

companies. For example, they aempt to list the full names of the people who wrote the lyrics

and the music heard on discs. The record companies often listed names such as “Gilbert and

Sullivan” and nothing more about the contribution made by each of the people listed

Within the framework of the recording processes at the time, recordings made before 1940 could

not be edited or enhanced in any manner after the recording session ended. Artists would

record the same selection several times and the company would process samples of each

version. The company and the artist would select the best version and the company would

move into the production of discs that they would oer to the public. The rejected versions were

usually discarded immediately, never to be heard again. While my discographies describe only

the published copies, DAHR aempts to describe every take that was recorded.

After World War II, record companies could modify recordings and engineers could enhance

them by adding additional musicians several days later, or by deleting some portions, or by

adding special eects to improve a recording. The method of producing a disc was very

dierent from that prior to the war. An amusing example is that of a high note sung by a

soprano being replaced on a disc by the note sung by another artist. The soprano was never told

about the spliced version and she allegedly was very proud of her work.

For many years I worked with a gentleman named Alan Kelly to describe records that were

recorded in both America and in Europe. Thousands of Victor recordings were pressed and sold

by the Gramophone Company under the His Master’s Voice (HMV) trademark in Europe, and I

provided Kelly with the data for those recordings. At the same time, Victor was publishing discs

that were produced by HMV, and Kelly provided me with the information that described those

discs. Both of us shared our data with the DAHR researchers. After Kelly’s passing, I have

continued to work with John Milmo, who has carried on his work in documenting Victor’s sister

company.

People who collect records or who maintain collections of records in libraries will nd the

discographies I have compiled very helpful as checklists. People who want to know everything

that went on while a disc was being made will nd the DAHR listings extremely helpful.

The Victor Black Label Discography vi

There are some limitations to the work done by both me and by DAHR. Some of the Victor data

has been lost or was damaged in the last 120 years. We did the best we could to identify some

dates and the full names of various participants. Some artists aected pseudonyms or nick-

names. The clerks who wrote the original data made spelling errors. Images of some of the

ancient data were poorly photographed and they are the only evidence we have of some of the

pages in Victor recording ledgers. Inevitably errors may creep in, but we are always pleased

when we are presented with amendments to our work.

Acknowledgments

As usual, I had some excellent cooperation from the great and most prolific Alan Kelly, the

author of so many books and compact discs documenting “His Master’s Voice” in Europe.

In New York, I was well received and treated by Mike Panico and Tom Tierney at the Sony

archives, where the Victor papers are stored. Earlier on, I was also the beneficiary of very

generous assistance from Vince Giordano when he was an archivist. Anna Holcombe

(Business & Legal Affairs Department, Sony Commercial Music Group) kindly granted

permission to reproduce the Victor scroll-label design. And, Allan Sutton corrected my

historical errors and exaggerations with grace and skill, even though I have assured him

millions of times that I do not exaggerate.

For this book, I am especially indebted to Sam Brylawski and David Seubert, the leaders

of the Internet project to compile the Encyclopedic Discography of Victor Records. They

made a great deal of material available to me that saved me from making countless additional

trips to New York City. We have enjoyed a mutually beneficial relationship, and the

Encyclopedia will be without parallel when it is completed. They, and their excellent staff,

enjoy the luxury of learning from my mistakes, and they have been very gracious when

pointing them out to me.

Preface

In 1999, the Sistine Chapel was reopened after nineteen years of extensive restoration. Hundreds

of years of damage, dirt, and paint from previous restorations had been removed and properly

repaired. One observer noted that hundreds of books about Michelangelo would have to be

revised as a result of this effort. For reasons that will become clear, the same could be said for

the countless books written about jazz, dance, country, and ethnic music that was recorded by

Victor in the 1920s. This is not only a study of records made by the Victor Talking Machine

Company in the late 1920s; it is a restoration of the documentation that actually exists in the

company files.

I am a fan of the books written by Tom Clancy. Not the ones he co-wrote with other authors,

but those that feature the exploits of Jack Ryan. I mention this because, like Clancy, I write

books with a prevailing theme, but I do not consider them to be volumes in an encyclopedia.

Nor are my books sequels of earlier discographies. To me, each is as different as one’s children.

The problems encountered in compiling each book present a need for different solutions. This

one was especially challenging.

In part, the uniqueness of each book is the result of growth and changes in the recording

industry, specifically the Victor Talking Machine Company (and late in the period covered in

this book, by RCA-Victor). Victor was very much affected by the rise of dozens of new recording

companies, some of which led the way in introducing styles of music that Victor had neglected

in its first twenty-five years.

The Radio Corporation of America purchased the Victor Talking Machine Company in 1929,

two years after Eldridge Reeves Johnson retired as the leader of the original company. Between

1925 and 1929, there were three administrations that governed the company, beginning with

that of Johnson in the years leading up to his retirement, and including some executives who

had been with the company since its earliest days. Johnson’s reign came to an end on December

7, 1926, when he retired after selling his majority stake in the company to a bankers’ consortium.

From late 1926 through 1928, the company was owned by bankers and presided over by Edward

E. Shumaker—Johnson’s handpicked successor—along with some other holdovers from

Johnson’s management team, including his son, Fenimore Johnson. Finally, on January 4, 1929,

the Radio Corporation of America agreed to purchase Victor. Fenimore Johnson had resigned

by then, along with some other veteran managers and executives. Shumaker stayed on for a

time, but control of the company passed largely to David Sarnoff, who was primarily interested

in manufacturing and distributing radios and developing television for commercial use.

I have adhered to a single standard in compiling the books in this series. I have listed only

those data that can be verified by using the original documents of the Victor Talking Machine

Company and its affiliates. I have refused to add the names of artists that cannot be found in

those documents, but I did work very hard to accurately identify the people who are actually

listed in the documents. The sole exceptions to this standard were to add the names of lyricists

and composers for each title, if those names and titles could be verified on sheet music or in

other authoritative sources; and to consult the original recordings in cases where the files were

ambiguous or seemingly at odds with what appeared on the record labels or in the catalogs.

I am very much aware of other discographies that have been published over the years, and

I confess to having developed a very skeptical view of many of those publications. Over the

past forty years, I have looked at thousands of Victor documents on file in New York, and I

have carefully cross-referenced data for every record that I have identified. Other authors have

considerably embellished their listings with the names of musicians who might, or who might

not, have been in the studios on the day a record was made. Anybody who knows anything

about musicians would hesitate to state that one of them consistently showed up, on time and

— x —

in condition to perform, for every scheduled engagement. Even major figures like Paul Whiteman

and Jean Goldkette did not conduct their orchestra for many of the recordings attributed to

them.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out where some discographers got their data, and I am

very suspicious of their intentions if indeed they embellished or inferred anything that they

published. I did not leave anything out of these listings, and there are no embellishments.

Fortunately, I am on solid ground: The documents still exist, and they are available for inspection

in the Sony archives in New York.

Of course, the shortcoming of my approach, if the reader views it that way, is that it is entirely

possible that some of the earlier discographers were correct in their assumptions. To be fair, I

have listed many of their books in the bibliography. I have studied most of them, and have

found very little that I could add to this discography with confidence.

Records Made at the Height of the “Jazz Age”

The records listed in this book were made between May 1925 and June 1929, four of the most

prosperous years in the history of the United States. In the first few years of the decade, the

Victor Talking Machine Company had resisted changes in American culture, but by 1926 it was

producing the same kinds of music as many of the smaller companies that had threatened its

position as a major recording company. Many of the young artists who had first made an

impression on other labels were signed to Victor contracts, and they produced some of the most

interesting records ever made. Not only did Victor’s sales figures increase greatly, but the

company was also a becoming a major force in successfully exporting American popular culture

throughout the world.

Many of the records listed in this book were made by some of the most talented entertainers

of the period. Unlike many of today’s entertainers, these people could sing or play instruments

without excessive amplification, artifice, or engineering. Headliners like Fannie Brice, Eddie

Cantor, and Sophie Tucker could entertain people live on stage night after night in major

productions that were staged by great showmen such as Florenz Ziegfeld. Orchestra leaders

like Paul Whiteman, Rudy Vallée, and Fred Waring were embarking on musical careers that

lasted for decades and which spawned any number of imitators.

Dance bands had become a huge new form of entertainment. Bandleaders became major

celebrities, and some of their featured singers, like Bing Crosby, went on to have successful solo

careers. It was a change from the early 1920s, when studio managers had selected the singers

who would perform on dance records. Victor dance band recordings of that period often featured

vocal choruses by the likes of Irving Kaufman, Billy Murray, and other studio singers who had

no connection to the bands with which they recorded. By 1926, however, many bands were

recording with their own singers.

In addition to New York City and Camden, Victor opened recording studios in places such

as Chicago, Oakland, and Hollywood. Bands that were recording in those studios became so

popular that they toured the United States to meet the demand from a public eager to hear

them in person. Portable recording equipment was also used for a number of other sites such as

Atlanta, Memphis, Savannah, and New Orleans, and these preserved forms of music that would

have been lost otherwise. But major cities were not the only destination. Victor’s sessions in the

small town of Bristol, straddling the Virginia-Tennessee border, at which Jimmie Rodgers and

the Carter Family made their first recordings, have become the stuff of legend.

A few selections in the earliest Victor catalogs may still be familiar today because they were

“standard” or traditional, or because they had religious themes that are still sung or played.

The records made between 1926 and 1929 are different. Included are dozens of titles that are

still performed by singers, bands, and orchestras today. Most mature adults have heard them in

movies, danced to them at wedding receptions, know the words, and have probably associated

them with a favorite memory or with feelings for a loved one.

Recordings by these singers, bands, and orchestras played a tremendous role in disseminating

popular music, in the process providing a decent standard of living for hundreds of songwriters,

some of whom had dozens of major hits, many of which are still familiar today. I have no doubt

that even the most casual reader of this book will recognize many of the titles listed in the

index.

The 1920s are often referred to as “The Roaring ’20s,” or “The Jazz Age.” It was Victor that

introduced jazz — or “jas” or “jass,” as it was sometimes termed in its earliest days — to the

record-buying public in 1917. Jazz was “hot.” It was a fresh sound. It didn’t follow the accepted

rules for music. It was performed by incredibly skilled young men, and a few equally remarkable

young women, some of whom could not read a note of music, and who improvised each time

they performed a song. It is often referred to as a musical form created by black musicians, and

it was, but many good performers were white. They had gravitated to the art form because, like

many young people, they didn’t want to follow a conventional path.

Although white musicians were quick to take up jazz, or what passed for it in those days,

vocal “blues” remained largely the purview of black artists. Like “jazz,” the term “blues” was

applied loosely. Many early “blues” records are closer to jazz or novelty performances, but the

best were something more. Few expressions of human emotion quite match those that can be

sensed upon hearing a great record by an authentic blues singer. As the 1920s drew to a close,

the blues were increasingly assimilated by Jimmie Rodgers and other white rural artists, adding

a new dimension to Victor’s extensive catalog of what it termed “old-time” music. And, no

Victor catalog was complete without a representative list of Hawaiian titles with or without

Hawaiian musicians in performance, many of them featuring steel-guitar work that would

come to be a major influence in country music.

Victor featured great talent by artists like Duke Ellington and Jelly-Roll Morton, and white

customers purchased their records even though Victor identified them in the 1920s as “colored”

talent and listed their records in “race” catalogs. The company, however, would not be described

as “politically correct” in today’s terms — not only because it segregated many of its releases

by black artists, but also because it also issued stereotypical “blackface” routines by white artists

like Correll & Gosden (professionally known as “Amos ‘n’ Andy” or “Sam ‘n’ Henry”) or Lemaire

& Van (“The Black Jacks”). Those records were huge hits in the 1920s, but the stereotypes reflected

in those records are offensive even today, eighty or more years after they were released. While

many of the performers on those records were not truly bigots, there were some — like comedian

Walter C. Kelly — who openly flaunted and profited from their prejudices.

Another form of music was also gaining in popularity in the 1920s. At first, the Victor ledgers

referred to its artists as “Hill-billy,” and included among them were the founders of what we

call “country music” today. Their earliest recordings often included a curious mix of old ballads,

religious music, and folk songs. Victor sent recording engineers into the American South to

record sounds that were rarely heard elsewhere, and some of the results were surprisingly

successful. A doomed singer named Jimmy Rodgers, who Ralph Peer first recorded in Bristol,

“yodeled” himself into the national spotlight and was eventually recognized by the Country

and Music Hall of Fame as the “Father of County Music.” The Carter Family made their first

records at the same time, also ensuring themselves of lasting fame.

Documenting recordings made outside of New York or Camden is very difficult. The ledgers

for those sessions are very sparse in their identification of artists, lyricists, and composers.

Different standards prevailed during the road trips, and copyright laws did not cover many of

the songs. Most of the artists were paid a set fee at the conclusion of a recording session. Promoters

like Peer, who held management contracts with many of the artists, pocketed a great deal of the

money that was earned from their recordings, then added to their take by copyrighting the

songs in their own names. To this day, the corporate descendants of Ralph Peer’s Southern

Music Company hold the copyrights on many songs originally composed and recorded by

Victor’s country artists.

The Victor catalogs catered to every taste, or lack thereof. Southern preachers recorded fire-

and-brimstone sermons. There were recordings of trained canaries, college marching bands,

and “comic” routines that are not at all funny today. Songs about train and boat wrecks held a

morbid appeal to some, while others rejoiced in the successful solo flight across the Atlantic

Ocean by Charles A. Lindbergh. Sadly, this period saw the last few Victor records by Billy

Murray, Henry Burr, and several other studio singers who had been with the company almost

from its earliest years. Murray and Burr, under exclusive Victor contract since 1920, spent their

last few years with the company mainly in a promotional role, touring with the Eight Popular

Victor Artists troupe. They were happy to get the work, but they were no longer commercially

viable as featured recording artists.

On December 7, 1926, Eldridge Reeves Johnson, the founder and president of the Victor

Talking Machine Company, sold his interest in the company for millions of dollars. Johnson

Thanks largely to Ralph Peer’s efforts, Victor excelled in the new country-music market. Ernest Stoneman

(

labels when he signed with Victor. The Carter Family (top right) and Jimmie Rodgers (bottom) were

went to school in Dover, Delaware, but he is relatively unknown there today, despite the presence

of a museum dedicated in his honor. A bureaucrat has closed the Johnson Victrola Museum for

all but a few days each month. It is a lovely little museum with a fine collection of artifacts and

records, and it has an endowment provided by the Johnson family, which is probably more

than adequate to keep it open. Research is no longer done at the site, although it may be possible

to see the collection by special appointment.

Johnson had personally groomed Edward E. Shumaker to take his place. Shumaker, who

had been with the company since 1904, assumed increasing control of Victor’s operations during

the early 1920s. It was Shumaker’s decision to install RCA radios in Victrolas. He played a

major role in Victor’s conversion to electrical recording, salvaging negotiations with Western

Electric after Johnson balked at their terms. After succeeding Johnson as president, he

substantially increased funding for research and development. He expanded Victor’s global

presence, acquiring the Canadian Berliner operation in 1927, expanding Victor’s South American

operations, and opening a Japanese studio and pressing plant in 1928.

Following Johnson’s retirement, one of the more interesting changes in the way that the

Victor Company did business was the introduction of regional supplements that listed recordings

made in specific locations by local artists. Many of these records are difficult to find today

because they were never listed in the general Victor catalogs that were issued each year. The

printing department continued to publish monthly supplements, some of which had one or

two pages that were dedicated to local releases that were designed expressly for “Southern” or

“Pacific Coast” buyers. Some records were advertised in flyers for titles that were introduced in

specific cities such as Boston or Philadelphia because they had appeal to the local populace.

In the late 1920s, the company also published periodic booklets containing lists of “Race”

Victor packaged its country-music and race-record releases in special illustrated sleeves. (

records made by black artists, “Southern” or “Old Familiar Tune” records by white rural artists,

and “Irish” records made by or for members of the Irish community. These supplements were

available wherever large populations of the target audience resided. Shortly after the RCA merger

in 1929, Victor began segregating the Race and Southern releases in specially numbered series

that were not listed in the general catalog. However, RCA-Victor and its affiliates reissued some

of them years later, and many were subsequently reissued on LPs or CDs.

It should be noted that, while many of the above types of recording are listed and described

in this book, there was another equally busy department at Victor that was recording and issuing

“ethnic” records in a wide variety of languages. Most of the latter were assigned to entirely

different sequences of catalog numbers, and the supplements that described them were printed

in foreign languages. The company recorded almost as many records for ethnic populations, or

for export to South America, as it did for general sale in the continental United States. A small

number of the export department records were selected for publication in the United States,

and those in the 20000/21000 series were issued with English titles.

One of the most powerful departments at Victor was responsible for producing educational

records. It produced hundreds of them, and they are not particularly interesting or collectible

today. Most were made by studio artists of no particular interest, and many of them consist of

snippets from four or five songs, or expositions of various musical instruments. As much as I

wanted to ignore them, they are all listed with as much attention to detail as are the other

records in this book.

One of the interesting observations made while these records were being studied is that the

artists seem to have come into the studio with predetermined titles that had probably been

well-rehearsed. Catalog numbers were assigned, and labels and supplements advertising the

records were probably in process before the records were made. Many of these records were

available in stores all over the United States within weeks after they were made. It should be

noted that travel in those days was often difficult and most shipping was done by railroad. The

company opened a pressing plant in Oakland, California, in 1924 to facilitate faster deliveries

to points west of the Rocky Mountains, but it could still take a new release some considerable

time to reach dealers in more out-of-the-way regions.

Another observation that was interesting is that artists were occasionally given permission

to make records “on approval,” in which case matrix numbers were often assigned at a later

date if one of those recordings was selected for publication.

A few records listed in the discography were not released, and the catalog number was either

abandoned or reassigned to another title. Most of these were identified by consulting large folios in

which someone kept track of available catalog numbers, and then entered the titles and names of

performers when a number was used. It should be noted that Victor’s Canadian affiliate

sometimes pressed records with different songs on one side from those published in the United

States. There is no definitive list of every example when that happened.

Dealers were advised of impending releases, and they were provided with code-words that

they used to identify the catalog numbers of copies they required, to minimize the chances a

wrong number would be sent. Orders seem to have been telegraphed to Camden, where all of

the records were manufactured until the Oakland, California, plant became operational.

Consumers were provided with monthly and sometimes special supplements that contained

descriptions of the recordings which would be available on or about the 28th of each month.

The supplements on the Pacific Coast and in the Southern states frequently contained lists of

records that appealed mainly to West Coast or regional buyers. As mentioned previously, there

were also special listings that described “Race,” “Southern,” or “Irish” records that appealed to

specific audiences.

Limitations

Here is the problem: Quite a few of these records have been listed by other discographers,

especially the prolific Brian Rust, and their listings contain undocumented information that

simply does not exist in the Victor files, and cannot be proven by other documentary sources.

These discographers rarely cite the sources of their information, which often appears to be the

product of inference, supposition, wishful thinking, or imagination.

Some of the data listed in many of Rust’s books were allegedly provided by various artists

decades after the recordings had been made. I say this without meaning to insult anybody but,

as I stated earlier, many musicians I know have trouble remembering who they played with

last year, let alone twenty or thirty years ago. That problem is sometimes compounded by the

desire to associate oneself with a legendary figure. As more than one jazz historian has pointed

out, if all the musicians who claimed to have played on certain small-band sessions are to be

believed, the size of those bands would have been considerably larger than what is heard on

the actual recordings.

There aren’t any actual “limitations” that created problems when this book was being

compiled. The ledgers still exist, and the company also listed data on index cards for each side

of each record that was published. Employees periodically updated these cards, which are blue

in color, and they contain data about release dates and matrix numbers that were used. They

often included actual copies of the labels used on each side of a record. Some of the original

cards are missing, but not very many. Some of the missing cards were later found in different

file drawers because the records had been reissued on the Montgomery Ward or Bluebird labels.

In short, there is a wealth of information available for each record described in this book.

— xx —

Missing in the ledgers and on the blue cards are the names of most of the people who played

in bands or orchestras. This was normal procedure during the 1920s; no recording companies

whose files have survived kept track of such information during this time. When names do

appear, they are often not those of band members, but rather of studio employees or freelancers

who were paid for their services, listed for accounting purposes. There are occasional instances

where personnel were added to the ledgers at a later date. It is impossible to verify the source

or accuracy of this information, and it has been ignored. The detailed logging of band personnel

by record companies did not begin until the later 1930s. Even then, it was done at first only by

small independent labels that specialized in jazz recordings.

For recording purposes, the directors of some of the famous dance bands were Victor

employees, not the name featured as the bandleader on the record label. This practice was not

unique to Victor, as the Brunswick and Columbia files confirm. One of the ironies one encounters

when compiling discographies is something totally unexpected: Beginning in 1901, the Victor

catalog listed hundreds of recordings by Sousa’s band, none of them conducted by Sousa himself.

When Sousa finally relented and personally conducted a record for Victor in the 1920s, the

band he directed was not his own, but the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company Band.

Another problem I encountered was that dance-band recording were sometimes reissued

under the names of several different band leaders. This is especially true when one compares

reissues on low-priced labels like Bluebird and Electradisk with the original Victor releases.

I did not list every liberty taken with artist credits when records were reissued. That will be the

subject of a future RCA budget-label discography, if I live that long.

For many of the recordings listed in the ledgers there is a list of the instruments (but rarely

the musicians who played them) used by the bands or orchestras being recorded. These changed

with almost every session, and often between takes or between morning and afternoon sessions.

I did not always copy the entire list of instruments being used, many of which can be found in

Rust’s books. If an artist was featured on a recording and was credited in the ledger, that artist

is listed in this book. If an artist is not listed in the ledger, even if I think I recognize the voice or

the style of playing, I did not leap to any conclusions. There is one session described on these

pages which includes an unnamed trio, and I suggested that it could have been the same

“Emerald Trio” that performed on recordings made immediately prior to, and immediately,

after the recordings in question. That is as speculative as I am willing to be. Just as Arturo

Toscanini refused to conduct the ending of the opera Turandot that was written after Puccini

died, I refuse to guess who was in a studio on a certain date. The reader will come across the

notation “(NL)” when there is no documentary evidence to identify who performed on a record.

One of the most disappointing aspects of compiling this book, and several other discographies

of electrical recordings made after 1925, is that I had to ignore data previously published by

Rust and others. What is worse, I discovered that much of the data reported in some European

A typical Victor recording-ledger sheet, in this case for a 1926 Jelly Roll Morton session. Note that no

personnel are listed by name, as is the case with most Victor files of the period. (

discographies also emanated from work done by Rust, and it was not accurate, nor could it be

verified in the original Victor documents. I cannot understand why Mr. Rust embellished so

many of his listings. He did an extraordinary amount of work and spent many decades in his

research efforts, only to tarnish the results with undocumented names of performers, inaccurate

indications of which takes were actually published, and incorrect statements concerning studio

conductors and recording locations. Compounding the problem, he passed some of this

misinformation along to other discographers like Alan Kelly, who unwittingly included it in

his otherwise outstanding discographies covering “His Master’s Voice” records.

Unfortunately, once something is in print, it quickly becomes “fact,” especially now that

information can be so quickly spread via the Web and social-networking sites. Few people

seem to read retractions — and those of us who do often find ourselves fighting an uphill battle

to set the record straight.

Some critic will no doubt chastise me for failing to list his or her favorite musician on a

certain record, even though their reason for believing their favorite musician was present may

stem from a guess made by this or that discographer. Certainly, there are some very distinctive

musicians during this period who can be aurally identified with a high degree of certainty. But

how does one go about identifying by ear (as Rust and others have done) the many musicians

of the period whose stock-in-trade was the ability to sound like others, or who lacked any

distinctive style at all? The endless “I hear Bix” Web postings show where that sort of “research”

can lead. The numerous changes Mr. Rust has made to his personnel listings over the course of

six editions of Jazz Records further demonstrate the weakness of this approach.

Mr. Rust has made a valuable contribution by helping to popularize the field of discography,

and his books are most assuredly worth consulting. But readers should be aware that given his

lack of source citations, there is simply no way of telling where the information came from, or

how accurate it might be. I would have listed the same performers that he did if there was even

a shred of documentary evidence that they were in the Victor studios. For the same reasons, I

also had to ignore the work done by other discographers such as Dixon, Godrich & Rye (Blues

and Gospel Records), Russell (Country Music Records), and Debus (The Complete Entertainment

Discography), all of whose work I found very interesting. I am aware of a great deal of the

research done by other jazz experts, especially in Europe; but again, I had to ignore their

contributions because so much of that work cannot be confirmed from any of the original

documents on file in New York.

One discography, that of Paul Whiteman’s recordings by Don Rayno, appears to contain

reliable lists of musicians who appeared with the different bands and orchestras of the Whiteman

organization. Mr. Whiteman, it seems, kept fairly accurate documentation for each of his

recording sessions. However, none of this information appears in the Victor files, nor did I

personally view Rayno’s documentation, so I cannot vouch for its accuracy. I can, however,

recommend his book.

I did make an honest effort to list composers, lyricists, Broadway shows, and inclusion in

films for each of the records in the book. These data do not always appear in the ledgers or on

the record labels. There are sometimes minor discrepancies between the way titles and composers

appear on the labels and the way they appear in more reliable sources, including the original

sheet music and the federal copyright registry. There are some oddities that were difficult to

resolve. One song was recorded in one session as a “Fox trot” and several weeks later as a

“Waltz,” and both versions were issued under the same catalog number.

The Fox trot is an interesting concept. As a dance style, it was the most popular form for the

years listed in this book. Many in the songs listed herein were released without vocal

accompaniment as “Fox trots”; however, the term was rarely listed in the ledgers or added to

the record label when a vocalist sang the same song. Didn’t people dance when Bing Crosby

was singing? Incidentally, Fox was a man’s name, and it should be capitalized.

Transcriptions and Reissues

Throughout its history, Victor released records that were made from transcribed (“dubbed”)

masters. In the early years this was done because the original stampers were no longer available,

or because the original stamper contained grooves that were inadequate and caused records to

show excessive wear. With the advent of electrical recording a new element was added —

enhanced sound. Ironically, “enhancement” sometimes involved removing some sound,

especially the exaggerated bass heard on many late 1920s recordings. Recordings listed as

remastered in the discography were usually marked with a small symbol that was embossed

next to the label at the 9 o’clock position. The symbol “1R” was used most often, but once in a

while “2R” or “3R” appears, indicating that several attempts were made to improve upon the

original recording. There is no relationship between the original take number and the symbol

used to indicate a transcribed master.

The Gramophone Company, Victor’s British affiliate that is better known as “HMV” or “His

Master’s Voice,” also issued a great number of the recordings in the 20000 / 21000 series in

Europe. A few of the imported Victor stampers were transcribed there, and those were marked

on the record surface with the symbol “T1.”

Reissues are a different matter. Quite a few of the records in this series were given a second

lease on life when they were reissued on inexpensive labels such as Bluebird or Montgomery

Ward. Montgomery Ward & Company was a nationwide chain of stores that sold goods at

bargain prices. Victor pressed records for them with Montgomery Ward labels and the labels

for these records sometimes contained pseudonyms for the Victor artists, and even slightly

altered titles, to conceal their origins. Victor also pressed some of the Irish records listed in this

book for the Yorkville Phonograph Shop, and these bear their own set of catalog numbers.

Beginning in the later 1930s, many 1920s jazz recordings were reissued for the benefit of collectors

on the Bluebird and RCA-Victor labels.

One has to wonder if the public was fooled or the artists were denied royalties for these

reissues. The Bluebird reissues were RCA-Victor records sold at lower prices. The labels for

them were relatively accurate, although some jazz-reissue labels show undocumented personnel.

It is noteworthy that some of them were made from takes that had earlier been rejected when

the records were issued in the 20000/21000 series. Again, the use of alternate takes for Bluebird

and other reissues is the subject of a future discography.

From its earliest days, the Victor ledgers contained notations that indicated which masters

were suitable for release. Some were set aside and marked as “Hold” in the ledgers. These were

probably the second choice by the artist and by company executives, perceived at the time as

good, but not as good as the version selected for publication. In retrospect, the best musical

choice was not always made at the time, which became evident after RCA began issuing

previously withheld takes for jazz collectors. From time to time the Victor storage vaults were

RCA reissued some interesting Victor material from the 20000 and 21000 series on budget-priced

labels in the 1930s. Leroy Smith’s 1928 “St. Louis Blues” reappeared in February 1933 on Montgomery

Ward, an RCA client label that retailed for as little as 18¢ per disc. (

Allan Sutton

)

— xxiii —

cleaned out and the discontinued stampers were discarded. In the 1930s, and later, when RCA-

Victor decided to reissue some of the records listed in this book, they processed the held stampers

and released them without much fanfare. In most, but not all, cases these substitutions were

marked on the blue history cards. I can only hope that I have identified all of them.

Another potential problem occurred when a take was approved for publication, but several

takes of the selection may have been recorded, and a second version was subsequently selected

for publication. This happened frequently, and well before the original release date, so there is

no reason to believe that the earlier take was ever issued. However, from time to time a collector

will claim to have found a record with the earlier take number stamped on it, and one can only

wonder how the stamper came to be used. In most instances, both versions were recorded on

the same date. If a variation is known to exist, both versions are listed in the discography.

Imports and Exports

When the metal parts for these records were sent to the Gramophone Company, most of them

were assigned control numbers. This was a continuation of the decades-old practice of assigning

single-sided numbers to phonograph records. A few of them were assigned numbers that

belonged to the European catalog sequences; for example, Spanish numbers for Spanish-language

records.

The HMV listings with numerical prefixes are the single-sided numbers. I doubt that any of

the single-sided HMV catalog numbers listed in this book were ever available for purchase by

the general public, but the numbers are included here for the sake of completeness. I have seen

test-pressings and special releases that were identified in that manner. The reader should note

that HMV catalog numbers had alphabetical prefixes by the late 1920s. That is especially true

for records listed in this book.

Victor exported a few matrices to Japan where they were issued in a series that started with

the prefix A-. In Europe and Asia, the Gramophone Company also gave many of these recordings

a second life by issuing them on lower-priced labels such as Regal or Zonophone (or, after the

Gramophone Company’s merger into EMI, Regal-Zonophone). Some were issued in India on

the Twin label.

A small number of European recordings were issued in the 20000/21000 series. The European

matrix numbers were embossed on the surface of these records in the space between the grooved

area and the edge of the labels. When Victor and HMV exchanged metal parts, each company

agreed to emboss the other’s matrix number onto the record surface, usually below the label.

Take numbers for American-made records were embossed in the area to the left of the label, but

the European matrix numbers were embossed with the take number as a suffix.

The Berliner Gram-O-Phone Company of Montreal issued Victor records in Canada on the

“His Master’s Voice–Victor” label. Victor bought the company in 1927, as its Canadian division.

The records are identical in most respects to the records issued in the United States; however, in

a handful of instances the Canadian division would offer a different coupling from that used on

the American records. Some Canadian copies were published with blue rather than black labels,

but I am not certain why this was done or which copies were affected.

Recordings made in Canada present an interesting problem. There are not very many instances

of Canadian matrices being issued by Victor, and there does not seem to be any reliable source

for verifying data for Canadian-made recordings. The dates seem to be those when the record

was processed in Camden rather than the actual session date in Montreal. Nobody I contacted

knows the whereabouts of the recording ledgers for the Montreal recordings.

The Canadian affiliate’s record catalogs all appear to be identical to those published in the

United States with the exception of a small number of additional pages dedicated to Canadian-

made titles.

Markings on Record Surfaces

In the remarks above, I mentioned some of the markings that appear on Victor records. These

markings can usually be found when the label is held in an upright position; however in some

cases the label was not aligned correctly and the record will have to be rotated until the embossed

catalog number is centered and easily read.

The most important numbers for collectors are the take numbers that were embossed to the

left of the labels. Almost microscopic, they are most useful for identifying two or more versions

of a recording. Usually, but not in all cases, the reason for replacing the lower take number at a

later date was some flaw or shortcoming in the original recording. When old acoustic recordings

were remade electrically by the same artists, the original serial numbers were retained, and

increasingly higher take numbers were used, sometimes reaching into the double digits. Record

dealers and discerning collectors are especially interested in correctly identifying take numbers.

The embossed catalog number in the space between the label and the end of the recorded

area matches the number printed on the label. Near these embossed catalog numbers are

microscopic characters that represent which metal part was used to press a record. A microscopic

letter “A,” when found in front of, or below, the embossed catalog number, represents a first

edition. For best-selling records, combinations of letters and numbers, such as “20T,” were used

to identify metal parts that were used for subsequent pressings.

Victor assigned the letters A and B to each side of a record; for example, 21000-A and 21000-

B are embossed onto the space next to the labels on either side of a record, as well as printed on

the labels of a double-sided record. Some collectors have speculated that the A-side was the

featured recording when the record was first introduced. I did not list these letters in the

discography because anybody owning the record has both sides and the number 21000 was

sufficient to identify the record as an artifact.

It is noteworthy that an almost infinite number of perfect stampers could be made of each

original matrix, and that the first pressing from any fresh metal part would be preferable to one

made by a worn stamper. The Victor Company carefully examined metal parts for signs of

wear, and replaced most of them before any problems could cause distortion in the sounds on

a record. Worn records are easy to identify by visually examining a record, but a record pressed

from a worn stamper may appear to be in mint condition, a problem not observable until the

record is actually played.

When European matrix numbers were embossed on the imported recordings, some of these

show Roman numerals as take numbers rather than Arabic numerals. In the discography I

listed the Arabic take numbers because not everybody remembers those lessons we received

on Roman numbering conventions when we were children.

Victor recordings from the late 1920s appeared around the world. Aurora was a low-priced Canadian

client label that reissued some Victor titles in the early 1930s. In England, many American recordings

were issued on the H.M.V. “plum” label, the Gramophone Company’s equivalent of Victor’s black

label. (

Recordings that were altered in some manner do not show take numbers, but may have

embossed characters such as “2R” or “T1” in the space to the left of the label. To the right of the

label there are also other embossed characters that nobody seems to know much about today.

They may indicate the machine that was used to press the record. The circled symbol “V.E.”

appears in embossed form on electrically made recordings employing the Western Electric

process. In the early 1930s, RCA began making some recordings using a different electrical

process, and on those recordings the “V.E.” appears in a diamond.

Samples of various labels are depicted in this book, but the reader is directed to Michael

Sherman’s book, The Collector’s Guide to Victor Recordings, which I am happy to report will be

reissued in 2010 in an expanded edition that will be distributed by Mainspring Press. I am not

an admirer of labels because, just as one cannot always know a book by its cover, labels can be

misleading. Fortunately, Mr. Sherman handles this subject with great skill and enthusiasm, and

that allows me to feel that I have covered the subject by simply deferring to his expertise.

Electrically Made Recordings

Almost every record listed in this book bears the scrolled “Orthophonic” label. By mid-1925,

electrical Victor recordings were being released in some quantity, and the “batwing” label used

during the acoustic era was retired and out of use by October 1926. The early electrical recordings

did have Batwing labels, but they can be identified by looking for the symbol “V.E.” that was

— xxv —

Victor introduced the “scroll” label in the autumn of 1926 to identify its electrcially recorded releases.

It remained in use, with minor modifications, until 1937. (

)

embossed in the space next to the label. The “batwing” label was brought of retirement by RCA

in the 1930s, for use on the few acoustic Red Seals that remained in the catalog, and for reissues

commissioned by the International Record Collectors Club. It was also used on some private

issues produced by RCA’s Special Products Division into the early 1950s.

The company was also manufacturing “Orthophonic” record players designed to amplify

the electrically made recordings. The machines were still acoustic but employed scientifically

designed exponential horns and special reproducers capable of handling the new records’

increased volume and frequency range. The machines were wonderful to hear, but the tone

arms were very heavy and hastened wear on records. Dual acoustic/electric machines were

available by the later 1920s, along with the all-electric Electrolas. During the same period,

automatic record changers were developed. They were expensive and not terribly efficient, and

they caused other forms of wear on a record surface. Ironically, electrical recordings actually

played quite nicely on many of the old acoustic Victrolas, and people did not rush out and buy

the new record players.

Electrical recordings were secretly developed at Victor in the early 1920s, using a process

developed internally by engineer Albertis Hewitt. Eldridge Johnson judged the results to be

unsatisfactory, however, and none of the experimental recordings were issued. Victor’s adoption

of electrical recording would have to wait until early 1925, when Johnson reluctantly agreed to

license the Western Electric system.

Victor exploits the popularity of the “talkies,” 1928. Victor shifted its West Coast recording operations

from Oakland to the Hollywood area in the later 1920s. (

— xxvii —

Western Electric dispatched its engineers to wire the Camden studio at the end of January,

and the first electrical test session was held there on February 9, 1925. By August the New York

studios had also been converted to the new process. Instead of a horn shaped like an inverted

megaphone, the new process required electrical engineers to place and monitor microphones

that picked up previously unheard recorded frequencies. In 1925, 78 revolutions per minute

was established as the international standard for recordings. Prior to 1925, speed varied from

company to company, with 80-rpm favored by competitors Columbia and Edison. Although it

advertised 78-rpm as the proper playback speed, Victor records were rarely made at exactly

that speed prior to 1925.

The earliest electrical recordings were sold to an unsuspecting public. When people realized

the quality of the new process, they demanded that their earlier records be replaced by those

made electrically. The Victor Company did not advertise the new process until August of 1926

(although its Canadian counterpart did so a year sooner), and it did not publish a catalog between

January 1925 and October 1926. Some of the original artists spent the time re-recording some of

the old standards, but thousands of old titles were deleted, and the 1926 catalog had fewer

pages and was quite different than earlier versions.

The advent of the microphone also made it possible to make recordings in remote locations

and those recordings greatly enhanced the quality and scope of the Victor catalog. Many of the

problems with remote recording sessions have already been discussed. The best result was that

people who may never have been recorded were found on those trips in sites far from New

York and Camden.

Using the Discography

The catalog numbers for records in this discography range from 20000 to 21999, and these

numbers were assigned by the Victor Talking Machine Company to facilitate ease in ordering

records. There is an “A” and a “B” side on each record, and these characters appear on the

record labels, but they are not listed in the discography for reasons I have stated in the

Introduction. Number or letters following a catalog number have been added to identify multiple

issued versions of that number; they are not part of the actual catalog number.

Titles for each record in the discography are listed in alphabetical order unless there was a

compelling reason to reverse the order. Generally, lyricists are listed before the names of

composers. These are in parentheses following the title of the record. Some of the records were

divided into segments or medleys, in which case the additional titles are separated by the symbol

+ (plus sign). Victor sometimes numbered these segments, but for the sake of clarity, I decided

to indicate separate titles using the plus sign. Titles are given in their published and/or

copyrighted forms, which sometimes vary slightly from what appears on the labels.

The various artists are listed alphabetically, or in order of importance, on one or more lines

beneath the titles. An exception is made for stage acts, such as the team of Gus Van and Joe

Schenck, in which members were billed out of alphabetical order. In some cases, the members

of groups are not listed in the original Victor ledgers and these are listed as “NL.”

The most important line to discographers is the one that lists the matrix number, the date of

the recording in bold characters, the release and deletion dates in italics, and the site where the

recording was made. Records that were not released are listed as “NR,” and those issued in

Canada with odd couplings are noted. Issues marked with an asterisk use transcribed masters;

in other words, masters that were re-recorded from the original.

If more than one type or take of a record has been identified, the pertinent data will be noted

on the matrix line. His Master’s Voice (HMV) records were probably all issued with the same

matrices as those used by Victor, but it is entirely possible that I am wrong about this. Embossed

Victor take numbers appear at the 9 o’clock position next to the label. HMV also pressed the

take numbers, but they may have been inverted and located at the 3 o’clock position next to the

label, and the matrix number is always embossed on HMV records below the label in the space

next to the end of the grooved area. HMV numbers with numerical prefixes are single-sided

control numbers. None of the HMV issues in this volume are known to have been issued in

single-sided form, but the control numbers appear on the labels, and they are included for the

sake of completeness.

Issues of the recordings with other Victor catalog numbers, as well as issues on other labels

manufactured by Victor or RCA-Victor, are listed beneath the matrix data in the discography.

“His Master’s Voice” was also printed on the labels of records issued by the Canadian affiliate

of the Victor Company. Some Victor matrices listed in this discography were later reissued on

labels like Bluebird, Electradisk, Montgomery Ward, and Aurora (Canada) at greatly reduced

prices in the 1930s. The names of the artists were sometimes disguised on these reissues.

Two indexes, listings of performers and titles, can be found at the end of the discography. All

entries are keyed to catalog numbers.
