mikeweil Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Chuck beat me to it. If anyone could do this, it is James Harrod. Those thousands of edits and scattered releases make it a nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesAHarrod Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 One of the things that stalled me in writing a history of the label was what Mikeweil noted, the PJ discographty is a can or worms that is beyond establishing firm data. So I have given up including a discography in the history, instead just writing a chronological narrative that includes specific data I have researched.

E.g. they identify both takes of This Is The Blues by Curtis Amy and Paul Bryant which l found out to be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The title, of course, was "Picture of HEATH", who you will know had the same hea(l)th problems as Chet and Art. 😗 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Beat Steve Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Yes I KNOW the title is "Heath", of course, but would not have remembered offhand that he had the same heath ...er .. health problems as the two featured artists. So ... given THEIR notoriety, there was something Freudian about this kind of error ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So ... given THEIR notoriety, there was something Freudian about this kind of error ... Yes, indeed. I recall reading that Jimmy's "hea(l)th" problems had landed him in prison at the time (a fate, of course, that Art and Chet were to suffer at other times) and that the charts for the Picture of Heath session were somehow smuggled out.
