Notes:   This 45 was release in March of 1946. Although there is debate about whether this was the actual first RCA 45, be assured that it was very close to it. It was the beginning of RCA's line of genre colored records, green being country western. Discogs states, "This 7 Inch, 45 RPM single (clear green commercial pressing) is notable for being the world's first ever 7 Inch, 45 RPM single released in the US on March 31st, 1949. Preceding this release was a preview 'Demonstration Record' titled 'Whirl Away' which could be said to the first ever 45 release pressed, as it was a preview demo introducing the new 7 Inch, 45 RPM format. A copy of the Eddy Arnold's recording was featured on the 'Whirl Away' demo set." Others say that this isn't the first commercial release by RCA so on goes the debate. It certainly was the first green vinyl 45.
