- W289073574 abstract "These days there is a tug-of-war over what constitutes a discography. Before the internet, the very term was mainly only known to discographers and writers who relied on research documents to support the arguments conducted in the non-fiction arena. To many in traditional discography, a true discography is nothing less than a of recordings as complete as possible and adhering in some way to the model of arrangement provided by the father of discography, the late Brian Rust. However, since the advent of the internet, a simple line of available CDs by an artist from an online vendor--replete with bad and duplicate entries--can be proffered as a even though it offers nothing near to the level of depth that is the accepted standard for traditional discography. This is a problem mostly for discographers; the vendors who ply such data under the moniker don't really care. They have to call the something, and to them suits it just as well as any other term out there; web listing just doesn't have the same panache. One might propose that the same is true in regard to histories. On one hand, sites such as bsnpubs.com and Wikipedia have done an admirable job in providing comprehensive platforms for histories, although in the case of Wikipedia the platform is often there without any content, or with data of negligible quality. A particular pet peeve is that the ungrammatical term sublabel threatens to enter the discographical vocabulary, even though fully functional--and more accurate--terms such as subsidiary, label acquisition and imprint have been in use for decades. The bsnpubs (aka Both Sides Now Publications) site (1) has some admirable histories of labels that were active during the era of stereo LPs, but some articles are built on relatively little information. A good example is that for the 20th Century Fox (2); not much better than the inaccurate Wikipedia article that is based on it. Both fail to mention Henry Onorati or Basil J. Bova, and both repeat the apparent fiction that at one time Dickie Goodman was the head of the company. Both articles tend to view the 78 era and pre-1972 20th Century Fox labels as being of little consequence. These have been bound together by a sham publisher in Germany to create a phony book, The 20th Century Fox Label (3) What follows is a concise summary of this label's history both as a way of answering such challenges and to hopefully fill in some of the gaps on this significant label's history. 78-era Label (ca. 1938-1944) The Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation began in 1935 when the ailing Fox Film Corporation merged with Darryl Zanuck's 20th Century Pictures. The production of movie musicals was very important in the early years of the 20th Century Fox studio; in addition to bringing in such musical talent as Ethel Merman and Benny Goodman, Shirley Temple, Betty Grable and Alice Faye were among the studio's biggest draws. 20th Century Fox began to produce small runs of shellac records of numbers recorded on their soundstages for promotional purposes. These records, with their typewritten labels, were given away for free to radio stations for use in advertising, to visitors to the studio, stars of the movies themselves, technical craftsmen on the lot and so on as a little perque for working there. During reorganization of studio property in the 1970s, a large number of these records were still present in the studio library, so they were given out to anyone willing to pick them up, according to Jack Casebolt, a collector and correspondent that made a pickup of such records exactly this way. These 78-rpm 20th Century Fox records bore a plain white label, and are still occasionally seen in the collector's market. Although numbered, the only discographical that exists for them is the one created by David Diehl for his site The eDiscographer (4) in 2000, appended to this article with minor adjustments; the dates on films from which they are taken indicate that the records were made between 1938 and 1943. …" @default.
