History

Melodisc records was founded by Austrian-born American citizen Emil Edward Shalit (24 December 1909 – 23 April 1983) and his business partner Jack Chilkes. Melodisc began trading in London in August 1949[1] and soon became established as one of the firstand, at the time, the largestindependent record labels in the UK.[2] Its offices were in Earlham Street, Covent Garden.[3]

The company was founded in 1949 when Shalit was still living in New York City, with the initial purpose of licensing American jazz for release in the UK.[4] in London, Melodisc was managed by Jack Chilkes until a disagreement with Shalit led to his departure and subsequent lawsuit in late 1952;[1] According to Chilkes, Shalit had tricked him into believing that he owned the rights to material actually owned by other companies.[5] In the early 1950s, Melodisc focused on licensing and releasing American jazz and folk records in the UK and had a production and distribution arrangement with Decca Records. After Chilkes was replaced by Trinidadian Rupert Nurse, who became Melodisc's musical director,[6] the label also released rhythm and blues, West Indian, and African recordings. Calypso and mento music was also released to cater to the growing Afro-Caribbean community in Britain.[7] Early Melodisc releases in the UK included 78 rpm and later 45 rpm records, EPs, and LPs by artists such as Big Bill Broonzy, Louis Jordan, Josh White, Woody Guthrie, Lead Belly, and Charlie Parker.[8][9][10]

From the early 1950s, Melodisc started recording musicians in London, particularly at the Esquire studios in Bedford Court Mansions in Covent Garden.[1][6] Early recordings were supervised by Denis Preston.[1] Among the musicians recorded were Jamaican-born jazz musician Joe Harriott, pianist Russ Henderson,[6] and the Trinidadians Lord Beginner and Lord Kitchener, whose song "Birth of Ghana" was recorded in London in late 1956.[11] Melodisc was actively involved in exporting records from Britain to the emerging record-buying markets in West Africa and the Caribbean including Guyanese singer Terry Nelson (aka Halla Gala).[2]

From the mid to late 1950s, Melodisc sought out Jamaican-produced records to distribute in Britain and made deals with producers such as Coxsone Dodd and Duke Reid.[12] It released Laurel Aitken's "Lonesome Lover" in the UK in 1960.[13] Following its success, Shalit employed Sigimund "Siggy" Jackson to set up a subsidiary label, Blue Beat, which focused on Jamaican blues and ska music.[12] For several years, the label name became synonymous with Jamaican music in the UK and became associated with the mod and later skinhead sub-cultures of the 1960s and early 1970s.[7][13]

In 1966, Melodisc set up a new sub-label, Fab Records, to release rocksteady music. The Melodisc label continued to release LPs through the 1960s and into the early 1970s. Artists included Prince Buster, Ambrose Campbell, Ginger Johnson, Ravi Shankar, and Lord Kitchener.[10]

Emil Shalit died in Slough, England, in 1983 at the age of 73.[14]

According to Hayes/Laughton, the Ernestine Washington platters were recorded in NYC on either 2 or 4 January 1946 with Bunk Johnson's Jazz Band, and are:
  • Jubilee 2501: "Does Jesus Care?" / "The Lord Will Make a Way Somehow"
  • Jubilee 2502: "Where Could I Go But to the Lord" / "God's Amazing Grace"

The discography goes on to say, however, that the Jubilee records were never issued. They were issued on the Disc label instead after the purchase of the matrices by Mo Asch. (Cedric J. Hayes, Gospel Records, 1943–1969: A Black Music Discography (paperback), Robert Laughton)

Depicted (left) is the Trinidadian Brylo Ford (cuatro – a small four-string ukulele-like guitar of Venezuelan origin) and Fitzroy Coleman (guitar); the latter performer arrived in the UK from Trinidad in 1945 with ‘Al’ Jennings’ All-Star Caribbean Orchestra. A multi instrumentalist, Ford came to the UK in the 1920s. He also played double bass and flute and sang under the sobriquet of "Le Duc" or The Duke".

1153Elton Hayes"The Phantom Stage Coach" / "Just a-wearyin' for you" [MEL51/MEL52]Elton Hayes was well-known to radio and television audiences of the 1950s as "the man with the small guitar". He specialised in old English folk songs and ballads such as "From Priggs that Snaffle the Prancers Strong" and "The Ratcatcher's Daughter". He sang to his own guitar accompaniments. After making his radio debut on Children's Hour, where he sang Edward Lear's nonsense rhymes, he guest-starred in almost every major radio variety show including In Town Tonight, varietyWorkers' Playtime, Variety Bandbox, Terry-Thomas's Top of the Town and Eric Barker's Just Fancy. He occasionally presented Housewives' Choice. Hayes's version of "The Owl and the Pussy Cat" was recorded by Parlophone and became a regular item on Children's Favourites. In 1954 he had his own series: Elton Hayes - He Sings to a Small Guitar, a misquotation from "The Owl and the Pussycat" that became his catchphrase. This was followed by Close Your Eyes, a late-night "bedtime" programme of light music, and Elton Hayes in A Tinker's Tales, in which Hayes narrated a story which a cast of actors then dramatised as a musical play. Hayes also wrote the music and songs for the series.

Kaye mainly worked in the Netherlands, France and Germany in the 1950s, only occasionally returning to Britain to lead his own band in various residencies and going solo in shows. During this period he recorded "Don't You Go Away", as the Kwamlah Quaye Sextetto Africana: the group included guitarist Laurie Deniz (who was born in Cardiff in 1924, his father was from Cape Verde); bassist Chris O'Brien; on bongos, Frank Holder (who had come from British Guiana (now Guyana) to serve in the RAF); and Chris Ajilo on claves. Moving back to Britain in 1957 Kaye worked with Eric Delaney, and often with Humphrey Lyttelton, as well as leading his own band. Before leaving for Ghana in May 1962, he recorded "Everything Is Go" in honour of John Glenn, the first US astronaut to orbit the earth. Kaye moved back to Britain in 1970 - fulfilling various club residencies in London and leading his own quartet before heading to Amsterdam, where he opened a piano bar.
