	Durium Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Durium Records was a United Kingdom-based record label of the 1930s.
		Its product and marketing were similar to that of the United States record company Hit of the Week Records (described in more detail in that article).

	Hit of the Week Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hit of the Week Records was a record label based in the United States of America in the early 1930s.
		Distinctively, "Hit of the Week"s were made not of shellac as was usual for gramophone record of the era, but of a patented blend of paper and resin called Durium.
		Unlike other records, it was sold at news-stands, not record stores.

		The records were an attempt to revive a record industry devastated by the Great Depression.
		Durium was forced to close in 1932 - a victim of the same Depression that created it.
		The sound quality of these cheap cardboard records was suprisingly good - though most music critics today would dismiss the content of them as being "too commercial." One of the more interesting things about this particular record is the "promo" at the very end for next week's record.

		The card board durium records, as released in the US and Europe were light, unbreakable and not expensive to make.

	Sam Lanin (Sept. 4, 1891 - May 5, 1977) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-03)
		He was notable not for specific titles--no one Lanin record was a huge hit--but for the sheer quantity of records made under his supervision.
		That he made his recording debut with a major company is noteworthy since most sessions in subsequent years produced records issued by minor as well as budget labels, important exceptions including Ipana Troubadours sessions for Columbia from the mid-1920s to early 1930s.
		Few stars of the stage made records regularly, exceptions being Bert Williams, Nora Bayes, and Al Jolson--even their output is minuscule compared with that of Henry Burr, Harry Macdonough, Lewis James, Vernon Dalhart, Irving Kaufman, and others who, for a long time, earned a living by recording.

	Vernon Dalhart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-03)
		Vernon Dalhart recorded often during the acoustic era of recording and was probably the most popular recording artist in America during the first couple of years of the electric era.
		One such recording was "The Wreck On The Southern Old 97," performed by guitarist and harmonica-player Henry Whitter on Okeh 40015 and issued in early 1924.
		In November 1924, Victor record 19427 was released with "The Wreck Of The Old 97" (the title had changed slightly--"Southern" was dropped and the preposition "on" became "of") on side A and "The Prisoner's Song" on side B, both called "Mountaineer's Song" in the Victor catalog.

	Catalogue » The Complete Hit of the Week Recordings Volume 1 (1930)
		Today, you'll find a number of these records all curled up and unplayable at garage sales down the street, but for the first time ever, Archeophone is presenting the complete output of the Durium Company, makers of Hit of the Week records, during its short lifespan.
		The first promotional record for the new line of records features a long spoken introduction into the method of manufacture, the company's plans for releasing a new hit each week, and a musical sample of "Tip-Toe Through the Tulips with Me" by Don Voorhees Orchestra.
		That is a record that lives up to its name: a true mystery in the history of Hit of the Week because, while it looks like a regular weekly issue, it never was and may have been a "one-off" demo.

		Record collectors love music but they also love numbers, lists, dates and they spend hours just reading discographies and lists of recordings.
		Discographical research, dating records and identifying members of bands, began in the 1930's but much of the jazz and dance band research is due to the incredible efforts of Brian Rust who, since the 1950's, has sought out original recording ledgers and interviewed the old musicians and singers.

		Second record for the great Barbara Hall on these pages, This 1975 Sam Dees penned ballad is not as rare as the former one ("Broken hearted", contributed by John Ridley), but is often hidden as the other side of "You brought it on yourself", a Northern Soul record of the crossover sub-genre.
		Not exactly a northern soul record, nor is it a deep soul record, but it's certainly not an dance blues or RandB record as are most tracks on the current volume of New Breed RandB; but for lack of a specific soul sub-genre to categorize this track under, it was fortunately included on this CD.

		The records were made until the end of the 1930s.
		The various Durium-coated discs of the 1930's fared better in this respect, as Durium makes a very hard and scratch-proof surface, but it seems that the material at the time was only deemed acceptable for ultra-cheap records which were likely to be discarded after a short time anyway.
		It seems to me that to cover only one side, as with the HOWs / Duriums, is an example of economy carried too far - maybe the technique would have found greater acceptance if they had made nice FLAT double-sided discs instead of the very cheap- and inferior-looking, curling and bending single-sided ones.
