members among the independent record
manufacturers. Established over two years
ago, Nati'onal had been pressing records
for most of the sma ll er disc co mpa ni es at
its Phillipsburg, N. J., plant until recently.
Deciding to "speak for itself" last fall,
National introduced its own line of pres-
si ngs; on the Red National lab el. Retai lin g
at 75c appeared popular a nd hillbilly num·
bers. The blue label discs, retailing at $1.05
carry blues, jazz and instrumental numbers.
A. B. Green, president of National Rec·
ords, and its su bsidiary, National Plastics
Co rp. , stated: " Our po licy is to put on the
market th e numbers the public wants to
hear, when they want th em ; and to make
them available to the operator and retailer
when he needs th em." The firm's records
a re distributed from 'New York, and Chi-
cago where Irvin g Green is in charge of
National's outlet, the Mid West Music Co.
Some of the tal ent so far recorded on
National include Dick Thomas, cowboy si n-
ger; AI Trace and His Silly Symphonists:
Vincent Lopez and Hi s Orch. ; Raymond
Scott Orch.; Warren Evans, popular sepia
vocalist; Hank D'Amico Sextet and Quar·
tet; Emmett Berry's Jazz Fi~e, and many
others.
Curren tly, National Records is excited
abo ut th eir new release of "S. K. Blues"
by Jo e Turner, Esquire's Blues Winner in
their all-American Poll. In the poll Joe
took top honors and hi s famou s "Wee Baby
Blues" was mentioned by three of Esquire's
board of experts as their favorite record.
Turner is th e originator of th e robust style
of blues sho uting so imitated today.
Another National favorite (we're speak.
ing of th e record lab el as well) is the Al
Trace recording of "Ru m and Coca-Cola."
And, com in g up fa st, are the Warren Evans
sepia swoon star rendition s of "I Wonder"
and "I'm Lost."
All in all-National is a compa ny, to
watch. It has amhitious plans for the future.
