	Dismuke's Hit Of The Week
		When Plaza merged with Cameo Records (which had previously acquired Perfect and its parent label, Pathe) in 1929 to form the American Record Corporation Schubert continued to record for the new company before moving to the newly formed Crown label in 1930.
		A great many records were badly damaged by owners who were either too cheap or too poor to change out their needles after every play.
		Both of these recordings were already a bit old fashioned when they were issued in 1922 and are more typical of the novelty vocal recordings of the 1910s.

	Teaching the Journal of American History
		When African Americans did make records, the recordings were limited to comedy or novelty styles, which established "coon songs" and minstrelsy as the paradigm of African American culture within the industry.
		But African Americans themselves exercised little control over the terms of their employment or the kinds of music they could produce professionally, and by the late 1910s they were even being displaced as the primary interpreters of the musical styles they had originated.
		At the other end of the blues spectrum, Black Swan did record the singer and actress Isabelle Washington, whose bluesy renditions of popular songs sounded "white"--that is, the mannered warble of her voice conformed to stereotypes about white singers' thin, controlled, trained voices, in contrast to the muscular, roughhewn singing style ascribed to African Americans.

		The Oriole label began in 1921 as a 25-cent record sold through the McCrory store chain in the U.S. After being acquired by the American Record Corporation in 1926, the orange background was changed to a dull fl.
		It is perhaps surprising that yellow was not used as a background colour, as the plumage of the male Baltimore oriole (illustrated on the label) is predominantly a brilliant yellow, with a fl 'hood' and fl markings to the wings and tail.
		This record was found at the bottom of a cardboard box stacked full of 78s in a dingy basement in Vernon, BC, somehow managing to survive the experience in exceptional condition.

	DIME STORE DYNASTY: The Scranton Button Co. and Phonograph Record Production
		The Emerson Recording Laboratories were incorporated in New York in January 1924, a separate entity from the newly created Emerson Radio Corporation.
		Although the American and Brunswick Record Corporations retained separate identities on the surface, the two companies eventually consolidated operations at ARC's Broadway offices and studios and operated as a single organization, resulting in widespread master swapping between the two divisions and an unfortunate decline for a time in the quality of Brunswick and Vocalion records.
		In December of that year, the entire ARC complex was purchased from Consolidated Film for $700,000 by the Columbia Broadcasting System, which dissolved the company and allowed rights to the Brunswick and Vocalion labels to revert to the Warner Brothers' Brunswick Radio Corporation subsidiary.

		Upon reviewing the record and the briefs of the parties, we conclude that this appeal is without merit.
		"To support a finding of refusal of selective employment 'the record must disclose (1) a bona fide job offer suitable to the employee's capacity; (2) [a job offer that was] procured for the employee by the employer; and (3) an unjustified refusal by the employee to accept the job.'" James v.

		Strong film links were invented by label boss Jack Kapp, for decades one of the most important label bosses in the USA; it was allegedly his idea to combine Al Jolson's 'Sonny Boy' and 'There's A Rainbow Round My Shoulder', both from his second film The Singing Fool '28, a huge hit.
		Warner Brothers bought the label '30, sold it to American Record Corporation (ARC) '31; it became the group's flagship label (and one of the most important in the USA, albeit during the Depression, when the record industry had almost disappeared), with stars like Crosby, the Mills Bros, Andrews Sisters.
		Harry James's version of 'One O'Clock Jump' was the label's last big hit before CBS bought the group '38, closed Brunswick down in favour of reactivated Columbia and sold Brunswick to Decca '42, who reactivated it '57: label's acts then incl.

		As soon as we had moved from the small place American Records had at Broadway and Fifty-seventh Street to 799 Seventh Avenue, there was discussion of a joint rese arch project with CBS for the purpose of making a longer-playing record.
		In 1933 records had fallen into disuse to such an extent that the problem was to find some way to get people to listen to them again.
		It was a long-playing record that lasted seven or eight minutes, and I immediately said, "Well, that's not a long-playing record." They then got it to ten or twelve minutes, and that didn't make it either.

		His radio fame caught the attention of American Record Corporation (ARC) producer W. Calaway, who brought the band to Chicago to cut their first twenty numbers in 1936.
		Fast-selling songbooks, hit records such as “Wreck on the Highway” and "Fireball Mail," issued on Columbia Records’ OKeh imprint; mushrooming gate receipts on the road, and appearances in a series of films all boosted his income to the $200,000 mark in 1942.
		By the early fifties, Acuff could easily have retired from the recording studio and the road, but he remained active, recording for Capitol, Decca, MGM, and after 1957, Hickory Records, a label he formed with Fred Rose and Wesley Rose in 1953.
