2. Questions Who can give me information about Leola Felton? She was a piano player. She made some (2?) test records for Durium c. summer 1931 in Connie’s Inn. Who can give me more information about Bert Hirsch. He seems to have been a radio personality.

Introduction This discography is made for those collectors who are interested in the brown flexible paper records made from the synthetic Durium material, invented by Mr. Hal T. Beans, professor of Chemistry at the Columbia University (1921 - 1947) that were made in Europe. Durium was used as a fire-and-water proof substitute for varnish which could be sprayed on the non-metallic parts of airplanes, but because of its properties also used as the “durable” film on the cardboard subsoil of the Durium records. Those disks were used to record a various range of music-styles, advertisements, custom records and courses. It started in 1930 in the US with the “hot” jazzy dance sides of the so-called Hit-of-the-week records and it ended in 1936 as a bearer of Italian fascist songs on the DVRIVM records. This discography contains the music of the English durium Products GB) Ltd. that was based in Slough, a suburb of London and the products of the local company’s in other parts of Europe that continued making durium records for their own countries until 1936. You won’t find the so-called advertisement and custom records in the E-5000 series and the S.D.-series of (Dubrico and) Sound Distributors 1. This discography is “a must” for all 78rpm-record collectors, who like the jazz-influenced dance and vintage music, but also the German film operettas of the first half of the Thirties in Europe. This discography, part of the HIT OF THE WEEK/DURIUM DISCOGRAPHY 6th edition (1999), now out of print, contains the European durium (small letters) records and its succesors like SUPER durium, DVRIVM, SEFONO and other French labels. Two other parts are reprinted too for those collectors who love to know more about other activities of Durium. The well known HIT OF THE WEEK records, made by the DURIUM PRODUCTS CORPORATION and the DURIUM PRODUCTS INCORPORATED and the contemporary issues made in Europe during the 1930 – 1932 period are to be found in the THE HIT OF THE WEEK DISCOGRAPHY. Those who are anxious to the advertisement and custom records in the USA or Europe can find the details

in the 3rd part THE DURIUM ADVERTISEMENT AND CUSTOM RECORDS DISCOGRAPHY , the (E) 5000 series (incl. Dubrico and Sound Distributors). Of course this book is indispensable to all collectors who would like to organize or build up their collections of rare curious flexible one-sided paper records. I hope you like my discography; please let me know!! This discography is part of the 6th edition. It started in 1994 with a simple list. Record collectors from the USA up to Japan, Argentina and of course the European countries sent me their additions and soon an enlarged second edition was published. Because the impressions are limited new “up-to-date” editions could me made. Thanks to this HIT OF THE WEEK/DURIUM DISCOGRAPHY people became interested in those long forgotten records. Dutch jazz and record collector magazines inserted articles about the subject.2 In the Netherlands the producers of the “Concertzender” dedicated their monthly program “Bakeliet” to the Hit-of-the-week records 3 and Harry Belle, radio producer and sound engineer, compiled a Compact Disc with 25 Hit-of-the-week records in his record series “Toppers van Toen”.4 Jean-Christophe Averty, a well known French TV and radio producer, a connoisseur of jazz and near-jazz records from the 10s and 20s uses this discography for his weekly radio program on France-Cultur “Jazz For The Happy Few”. A series about the Hit-of-the-week records started March 1998 and dealed two Hits á week. It stopped in April 1999 (after c. 50 programs!), but Jean- Christophe continued his Hit-of-the-week Project in his new weekly radio program on France-Cultur “Les Cinglés du Music-Hall” Now, May, 06, the program is still in the air. Merci Jean-Christophe!! In the mean time several Hit of the week reissues have been released, like three CDs made by Audiopark, a Japanese reissue-label. Thanks to Doug Benson and Archeophone records the complete Hit of the week records will be published in a set of four 2CDs. The first 2CD (Arch 3002) has been released december 2004. This 6+th edition will be a sober one, no pictures, only text. Why this choise? To print a complete new edition was no option, even reprinting would be to risky for me, so I have chosen for this low-budget editions. Because I am able to print these parts of my discography on my own printer the discography’s contain the latest additions and facts. Although the last Durium records were released somewhere in 1936 (in Italy) new records are found and listed in my discography. Collectors help me to complete this list with there additions. Thanks to the new interests of record collectors to the jazzy dance music of the 1920s and 1930s Hit-of-the-week records are re-issued on CDs. Thanks to this up-to-date 6+th edition I can offer you the latest information concerning contemporary issues. I will publish important new additions and questions on my home page. Please visit it: www.people.zeelandnet.nl/koerthchkz. Information about the history of this label and additions to this subject can be obtained at my e-mail address: [email protected] I hope this discography will help you to organize your collections and help you to reconstruct the history of the Durium paper record.

Label The texts of the Durium label are always printed direct on the Durium surface. In general the letters are printed in white or silver. At the top of the label you'll find the logo. The top of the lettering is rounded off 5. The durium logo has two versions. In general one can say, that the American pressings have the name in capitals (DURIUM), and the European products are in small letters (durium)

DURIUM DANCE BAND (durium EN-12) London, Apr. 20 1932 name of the band recording date E-1029 - A CAN’T WE TALK IT OVER FOXTROT NED WASHINGTON VICTOR YOUNG matrix- take title (composer – songwriter) – AB vo < PF a> durium EN-13 Vocalist’s soloists/arrangment catalogue number

On the label (in general), are the catalogue number, the composers and/or songwriters (first and surname on English labels!), the title(s), the type of song (e.g. fox trot or waltz), the name of the band and the manufacturer's identification. The matrix number is pressed into the surface. It includes information about the matrix, the take and the stamper used.6 Both matrix and take numbers are listed in the Discography; the stamper numbers are not. Sometimes there are other numbers with insignificant meaning.

E-1029 – A CAN’T WE TALK IT OVER FOXTROT NED WASHINGTON VICTOR YOUNG – AB vo < PF a> durium EN-13

All English matrix numbers start with the letter E-. In other countries other letters appear pressed into the surface. Sometimes the reverse of the records was used for advertisements. The titles of the songs and the name of the band were translated into the language of the client. Sometimes an (English) subtitle was used . The issues like SEFONO, DANCING, M.P., DURAND-DUPOND, ABC, DO-RÉ-MI, CHÂTELET, Noropa and SUPER durium all have the same layout as the regular Durium label, with the remark, that the final SEFONO and CHÂTELET records probably made in Great Britain and France still have the logo type in capitals. Some small European

(children) records (e.g. DURIUM FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS) have the name DURIUM in capitals too. Also the Italian DVRIVM records have a complete different logo.

Covers About the European covers we have only scrappy knowledge, appended to incidental copies. The English covers show the name “ durium - the self changing record “ and the text: “ This Record plays two complete tunes without lifting the needle ... lasts longer ... is unbreakable ... unscratchable ... of light weight ... plays with any needle on any gramophone. On sale at all bookstalls and News agents every Friday “. The price 1/- written in a blue circle. On the reverse of the oldest covers the durium logo (globe with the word DURIUM remodeled as a note) and the text “ MUSIC OF THE WORLD “ and “ BRITISH MADE “Some envelops have drawings of a dance band, some dancing couples or some dancing and playing cowboys 7 Sometimes the covers were misused with advertisement stickers < KOLYNOS DENTAL CREAM the tooth paste with an UNBREAKABLE RECORD! > A red paper tape seals the envelope with durium seals < GUARANTEE. The unbroken seal of this envelope is your guarantee that this record is in perfect condition and absolutely new and that it has not been worn or damaged through demonstration playings to other persons before sale.” Other covers have complete directions for use and an enumeration of all the benefits of the record.). As an indispensable accessory, the Record Lock was put into the cover “ LOOK INSIDE the envelope for a Record Lock to hold the record on Machines which have a center pin of a small size “ On the cover pictures to illustrate the use of the record lock, the visible interval between the two tunes, the unbreakable and flexibility qualities. The last British covers show the name “durium”, the d written with a long stick and the price 1/- in a blue circle. Towards the end of British durium, records of the EN-series were sold in 43 separate sets of 3 records, with the exception of the first 6 records. From the durium GE-series a cover exists with just the name “durium” written as the logo on the label and the titles of the songs. The Dutch durium cover looks like the British (the d with the long stick). The price fl. 1- On the reverse the (Dutch) durium logo (A globe with the word DURIUM remodeled as a note) and the text “ Populaire muziek voor 'n populairen prijs” and a panegyric on the durium record “ Elke Duriumplaat is een muzikaal genot. A cover, noted before, used in the Dutch Indies, “Nederlandsch-Indië” shows the name DURIUM and the text “HIT-OF-THE-WEEK” GRAMOFOON PLATEN DURIUM PRODUCTS CORP. NEW YORK “ “ EENIGE IMPORTEURS VOOR NEDERL. -INDIË MITSUI BUSSAN KAISHA, Ltd. “ and the (complete) drawing by Russell Patterson of the Hit-of-the-week dance band. On the cover is a stamp of a local shop in Surabaya. It's likely, that durium covers used in other European countries are from the same typesetting as the British with the price in the local currency. The Italian durium cover has the word “ novita' durium “ (the d with the long stick) and the words “DISCO DEL SUCCESSO “ and “ FISSATE IL“ The prize L. 6 and address in a circle. On the reverse of the cover a catalogue with Italian issues and an advertisement of the “ FONOVALIGIA DURIUM JAZZ”, the only known portable DURIUM gramophone. It’s unknown up to now what cover the fascists DVRIVM records had. In Sweden the durium records were sold in a cover with an extra page. They were sold as Veckans SKIVA . The cover shows the words Veckans SKIVA and a sound box with needle and a picture. The picture has nothing to do with the music inside, but with the article on the page in the middle, like on the V.S. nr. 6: A picture of Ramon Novarro American/Mexican movie star and Greta Garbo, Swedish/American movie star sensationell intervju med den världsberömde filmhjälten and an article about the records which states that the PAULL SISTERS are a populär damkvartett. On that page a headline as in a newspaper with the editor, the head-office of DURIUM RECORDS LTD. ZURICH and the Swedish WENNERGRENS A. -B. STOCKHOLM 1. On the cover the title written as: “I'm keepin' company - Foxtrot "Jag följer med dig!" I wanna sing about you - Blues "Om dig vill jag sjunga" Jack Normans orkester med refrängsång av Paull Sisters och Chick Bullock “ On the reverse of the cover again recommendations for the record “ VECKANS SKIVA en ny tidning - en ny grammofonskiva som spelar de senaste melodierna för Er.”. The records were sealed and could be played only by breaking the perforated cover. The first issues of Veckans Skiva were

published by < DURIUM RECORDS LTD. ZURICH > and the Swedish < WENNERGRENS A. –B. > . Somewhere between V.S. nr. 11 (Jul. 1, 1932) and V.S. nr. 13 (Jul. 15, 1932) a Norwegian distributor was added < WILLIAM’S A/S > Somewhere between V.S. nr. 23 (Sep 23, 1932) and V.S. nr. 36 (Dec 23, 1932) a Finnish distributor was added < ALLMÄNNA PRESBYRÅN A. –B, HELSINGFORS > There was never mention of a Danish distributor. 8

After the end of the Veckans Skiva series, it seems that envelopes with the name and price covered records. There was no information about titles etc. on the cover. The covers for the French DO-RÉ-MI are simple. On the envelop a circle with a guitar (= lute?) player and the word do-re-mi. The hexagon hole in the middle is striking. The CHÂTELET cover has the same hexagon hole and the word CHATELET.

(S) Här är den nya Durium-grammofonskivan, en epokgörande uppfinning. Det material varmed den är klädd är på samma gång det mjukaste och mest härdiga i sitt slag, vilket möjliggör en mer fulländad återgivning än någonsin tillförne. Höga såväl som låga toner äro kristallklara utan minsta biljud. Lägg märke till hur naturlig min röst låter, utan något väsande från nålen. Durium-skivan bevarar sin klangfullhet längre än någon annan skiva. Den går ej sönder. På Durium-skivorna inspelas de av specialister utvalda modernaste dansmelodierna av världens mest berömda orkestrar. Dess pris är lika anmärkningsvärt som dess kvalitet. Femtio Durium-skivor får rum i en resegrammofon och väga ej mer än sex vanliga skivor.

(S) Hallo allemaal. Eén ogenblik. Ik moet U iets zeggen over de geheel nieuwe DURIUM platen. De boys hier achter mij trappelen van ongeduld om voor U hun beste nummers te spelen. Dus zal ik het niet lang maken. U ziet zelf direct alle voordelen van de nieuwe DURIUM platen. Ik zou U kunnen zeggen, dat DURIUM platen niet breken, maar dat ziet U zelf of dat vijftig DURIUM platen evenveel wegen als zes gewone; maar dat ziet U zelf ook direct. Ik zou U ook kunnen vertellen van de prachtige DURIUM weergave, maar dat hoort U al aan mijn aangenaam stemgeluid. Ik zou vervolgens kunnen zeggen, dat alleen de beste dansorkesten de laatste nummers voor DURIUM spelen en als U een horloge hebt, zult U ook zien dat DURIUM platen bijna tweemaal zo lang spelen als gewone platen. Voor één ding waarschuw ik U echter; U hoeft straks niet allemaal naar de grammofoon te springen om de plaat om te draaien; DURIUM platen behoeven niet te worden omgedraaid. U krijgt twee volledige nummers op één plaat voor de helft van het geld. Kom jongens, nu is het jullie beurt. Zeg het met muziek !

12. Projects After the publication of this discography radio programs were made dedicated especially to this obscure depression label Hit of the week/Durium. In many cases Hit of the week recordings were played in radio programs, but some broadcasts were dedicated entire to the Hit of the week record. Thanks to the publication of the discography the producer of the Dutch radio program “Toppers van Toen” decided to make a Compact Disc dedicated entirely to the Hit of the week recording. Twenty-five records, many never re-issued before, were restorated by Harry Belle (AHG 006)



Searching on the WWW you’ll find several pages dedicated to the Durium label. The HIT OF THE WEEK-DURIUM project ( www. people.zeelandnet.nl/koerthchkz ) is one of those information - and discussion pages.
