From a collector's vault, The Hollywood Bluejays, originally released in 1953. Songs are led by Cornell Gunter and Richard Berry A and B sides respectively. They are accompanied by the Pee Wee Crayton Orchestra. Bright and shiny 45 although it is listed on Discogs and Fosman as only released in 78rpm shellac. The original recording was made of assembled performers for John Dolphin's label. Very haunting, lyric performance by Cornell Gunter. Writing on sleeve is by the collector.
As explained by Discogs: In December 1952, The Debonairs (later known as The Flairs) recorded two original tunes for the John Dolphin's label Recorded In Hollywood: "I Had A Love" (led by Cornell Gunter) and "Tell Me You Love Me" (led by Richard Berry). The recordings were released in January 1953, with the Debonairs magically renamed "The Hollywood Blue Jays." (Dolphin had recycled this name, having released tunes by a group called "The Five Hollywood Blue Jays" some months earlier.)

Please understand that the records I am selling were not collected by me so I do not know their history. I got them in boxes. I am no kind of expert in music or records. I research each item on Discogs and Fosman's Dead Wax book for all the information in the post. If I have information from Discogs, Fosman or another seller's post that a record like mine is a reissue, I indicate that. I listen to all 45rpm records and parts of any 33rpm that looks potentially damaged. I judge them according to Discogs standards and give the reasons for my rating so buyers can second guess me. My quality ratings are not certified in any way. If the difference between an original edition and a reissue is indicated by a tiny detail not shown on Discogs, Fosman or by another seller, I may not discover that. I sell in the belief that collectors of vintage records are more knowledgeable than me about what they collect and know what they are looking at. I am glad to answer any questions. Because collectors may know the true value of a record, while I do not, I start at a very reasonable price and let bidders set the true value, which is often much higher than I thought or much lower. If an item gets no bids after a while I discard it even though I originally thought it was worth something.
