Bolig American Discography Project UC Santa Barbara Library © 2017 John R. Bolig. All rights reserved. ii The Victor Discography Series By John R. Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

June 6th 1935, because he and his band sure had a busy day! Back then, because of the depression, it is said that He and his Rhythm Makers Orchestra went into the studio and in transcriptions actually outsold 78 RPM records. During the one sitting recorded 50 tracks (one a medley of two) for the RCA 1970’s, there was a “direct-to-disc” recording craze where bands transcription service. recorded a “live” session directly to a master disc with no editing The backstory: Benny in 1934 had organized a big band or mixing. Bands such as Harry James, Les Brown, Buddy Rich, for Billy Rose’s Music Hall in New York City. It was run as a and Benny Goodman participated in the production of these supper club with vaudeville acts opening and the Goodman band audiophile LP’s.
