Re: Electric 78's info
"According a note from George Blau, Columbia hired Art Gillham, The Whispering Pianist, to make the first electrical recording February 25, 1925, which was commercially released as You May Be Lonesome, Columbia 328-D. The Victor Talking Machine Co. made its first electrical recording on March 16, 1925 which was released as Joan of Arkansas, Victor 19626." FROM: http://history.sandiego.edu/GEN/recording/ortho.html

So, Victor #20023 - Fred Hamm & His Orchestra, SUGAR FOOT STOMP,
from my searching, looks like the first Victor to use the VE
on the label?
