The Canadian Victor 216000 Series: Estimating the Recording Dates
© 2012 Jack Litchfield
From 1917 to 1942, 599 records of popular music were issued in Canada with serial numbers from 216001 to 216611. The label name began as "His Master's Voice" and "His Master's Voice" Victor, and changed to Victor and RCA Victor. Many Canadian artists were recorded in this series. With such a treasure trove of important Canadian records, knowing the recording dates would be of great assistance to researchers (and music lovers). Alas, the recording ledgers disappeared many years ago. However, there is a method by which the recording dates can be estimated. This article presents such a method.

Music (Makes The World Go 'Round)

Dance Bands
From Canada
1922-1930
© 2000 Canadian Antique Phonograph Society
"This CD focuses on dance bands from the 1920s, the fabled "Jazz Age",
and presents a cross section of sides by Canadians playing here and abroad.
The music spans the complete spectrum from straight dance music
to some peppy sides to some quite hot tracks."
