  2. Also : Dusty Duncan was on the San Joaquin label (but no Valley) "Milk Cow Blues" (San Joaquin SH-1001). I believe this is the same label?. (Dusty was Stockton's KSTN host.)

  3. I think Bob is right. The Dusty Duncan 78 on San Joaquin has same label coloring, gold on black, as the San Joaquin Valley labels. Also the artist credit on SH 103 is "The Royal Texans, Vocal by Jack Thornhill". The flip is as given.

  4. Thank you Bob and Steve I have updated the listing accordingly, changed the artist credit as noted by Steve, and have added the two relaeses on SAN JOAQUIN that I am aware of.

    Andy - These are not Research Craft Pressings.
