There are several 78 rpm recordings, definitely attributable to Bourbon, whose origins remains obscure. Most of these are on blank label discs.

First, there is a series of unnumbered, blank, white label 78's with "X" prefixed runoff numbers. Given the "X" prefixes which appear on the Imperial label, and the gaps in numbering of that label's reported discs, it is likely that these first appeared there.:

Russian Refugee [X 019]

Tennis Champ [X 020]

 

The Trial of Carrie P. Potts, part 1 [X 021]

The Trial of Carrie P. Potts, part 2 [X 022]

 

Shanghai Flo [X 025]

Singapore Lily [X 026]

Almost certainly part of this series is :

Strip Tease Queen [X 024]

-"Strip Tease Queen" also appears on the Hollywood Hot Shots label with the X024 matrix number, indicating it was probably recorded by the late 30's.

There is also an unusual untitled, anonymous release which appears in at least two distinct pressings:

[You've Got To Feel That Thing Yourself] [BD-1]/[003]

[Haggerty's] [BD-2]/[004]

-"Haggerty's" is truncated in both instances to fit onto a 10" disc, indicating it was originally a 12" release. Also, "Three Guesses" is a chattier version of the tune released on Imperial 103 B.

 

There is an uncredited song on the Party Novelty's [sic] label that is unquestionsably by Bourbon. Since all known releases on this label are reissues of Western Record Company/Bourbana releases, it seems likely that this is a redub of "Navy Day For Tessie", but until an original copy can be obtained for comparison, this identification must be regarded as tentative:

 

I Think I'll Join The Navy (Party Novelty's [sic] 58 B)

-?redub of "Navy Day For Tessie" (Western Record Co./Bourbana WR-715 A)

 

Finally, there is an uncredited release on the Party Record label. "Air Raid Warden" suggests a wartime date, and therefore probably represents yet another unidentified Imperial recording.

When Knighthood Was in Flower (Party Record 515 B)
