HOBO RECORDS 745
Box 6305, Shreveport, LA

First in a small line of records pressed in and around Louisiana that were published by Bayou State BMI. The labels of these are of a slightly different design, which makes me wonder if the labels were printed elsewhere.

Underneath these labels is a label shot sent from a guy called Apes Ville. This looks more like a Satrday Custom, judging by the label. Which makes me wonder if the green label was a second pressing. It does look newer than the blue label.

B side is a top notch, well crafted song - could be classed as a country bopper if you're into classing music as such things. Not heard the A side.

BLUEGRASS RECORDS 740

ARVEL LEWIS
Sept 58
A - Pine Mountain Boogie   (No Info)
(No Info)
B - I Knocked On Your Door   (No Info)
(No Info)
BLUEGRASS RECORDS 740

The only thing I could find about this record, apart from the fact that the "Pine Mountain Boogie" is an excellent primitive country rocker, is finding a death notice for an Arvel Lewis in Fort Lauderdale, FL - so i'm not even sure if it's the same guy.

No label shots - never heard the B side.
