shellac 78 rpm single record
RCA Victor 20-5299 (1953)
"Bigs" Howard and His Orchestra Big Mamou / Scrap of Paper vocal refrain by Joya Sherrill
Is "Bigs" Howard a pseudonym for Howard Biggs? Can find very little information on this record online, not even documentation for a shellac stock copy, although that was still standard for 1953 single releases.
A-side features a Louis Prima and Keely Smith-style vocal duo (though Louis and Keely had only married by '53 and didn't start having their hits together until later in the 50s)
