Bruz Fletcher's most known 78

    

   

above: "The Prairie" is the same recording as "The Wide Open Spaces,"
and was pressed (not logically) on the flip side of L-0464.
I understand "Haskell" was also pressed at HO-106.
above right, autographed copy of L-0464

Frances Faye made "Drunk With Love" her signature song. See This Link for so much more.

1940

  

  

 Above right: "It" is same as "Peter Lillie Daisy"

with L-305, L-306, L-307

Two tracks later released on "Party" record labels
Note, no name given. "Society Lady" was Mrs Haskell,
though an alternate recording version; and Haskell changed to Haskill.
I'm told they are quite inferior recordings

   

Note: I do not by any means own all of these, labels scans were graciously provided by Tyler Alpern

Finally, from my collection, a very rare 1950's LP acetate,
with an alternate version of 'Drunk With Love"

If you have read this far, then may want to know about
this CD, ....Compiled by Tyler Alpern.

For a while it was sold on CDBaby, but no longer.
So keep a lookout for it on eBay, etc...
