    The Vocalion labels need some attention. I thought I would weigh in. I know the (US) label has a unique history, but at the point 'Vocalion was resurrected in the late 1950s by Decca (US)', (from Wikipedia); From that point the releases share the same parent company. The releases that state "A product of Decca" (usually with logo) should be added to Vocalion (3). It just seems that it would clean it up, as there are titles in (3) that belong in (2) (presently) and also need to remove the Dutton 'Vocalion' titles from (3). In my opinion the Vocalion (2) should be for Shellac releases only (and stated as such). Move the (label) images (2) to (3) and use the shellac label logo(s) only.
