55166 ("Night") is the last maroon (red) that i have. i also have it on solid orange. the orange runs from 55166 to 55243 ("say i do" w/linda hopkins). The multi color starts at 55246 ("shake shake shake"). though some of the more popular early ones were issued later on the multi colored label.

Also, some of the later ones show up on Burgundy Canadian issues.

Very Similar at first glance.

UK releases from the 60s were released on the Coral label, reverting to Brunswick in the 70s.

I think all the US releases were on brunswick.....other than a few on the collectibles reissue label. I'm not sure about the canadian issues they could have been issued on coral?

Wasn't he the only artist on Brunswick for a few years? Since Decca signed him with Nat but didn't want him on the Major imprint so they re-activated the subsidiary? If I'm right, I'd love to know who the next artist to have a pressing on the label was. If I'm wrong then I apologise.

The demos are yellow.
