AJAX
RECORDS: A HISTORY
AND DISCOGRAHY
By
William R. Bryant with the
Record Research Associates
Edited
and annotated by Allan Sutton
Ajax
has been called “the forgotten race-record label.” Created
by the son of Gramophone inventor Emile Berliner, it survived for only
two years, including a brief and unsuccessful excursion into the pop market
Although Ajax never
rose to the level of Okeh,
Paramount, or other emerging leaders in the race-record field, these now-rare
records are prized by collectors today.
The discography was
compiled by the late Bill
Bryant, who completed the work begun by a group of prominent discographers
affiliated with Record Research magazine. The wealth of detail
(much of it previously unpublished, or available only in out-of-print
works) sheds new light on this sometimes-overlooked artifact of the 1920s
“blues craze.”

PSEUDONYMS ON AMERICAN RECORDS, 1892–1942
Third Revised & Expanded Edition
By
Allan Sutton
2013 ARSC Lifetime Achievement Award
Since 1990, Pseudonyms has been helping dealers and advanced collectors spot the hidden treasures.
Now it's back, in a fully revised and expanded edition featuring over 60 additional pages of pseudonym listings. More than 6,200 aliases are unmasked on 17,000 cylinders, 78s, and transcriptions in all genres, including (for the first time) American-produced ethnic and export-series records.
An important new feature is the addition of sources for each entry — whether original company files or other archival materials, correlation with corresponding non-pseudonymous issues, aural evidence, or reports from trusted secondary source. Also included are a cross-reference listing by artist; recording artists’ birth, legal, or married names; historical introduction; and user’s guide.
