THE RUSSELL HUNTING COMPANY STERLING CYLINDERS
HMS PINAFORE was recorded in Sept/Oct 1907 on eleven Sterling cylinders.
This medium was doomed so they were withdrawn after one year. Pathé re-issued
four on their disc system (See note below), but there was a non-standard
cut so there were poor sales. Long believed lost, the cylinders, or at least
ten of them, were re-discovered in 1999 and The Sir Arthur Sullivan Society
and Symposium subsequently provided them on a CD.

Note: George Woolford comments: "Hyde, Jones, Dawson and McCormack all
wrote open letters in response to the above announcement, stating that they
had not made rival disc recordings as advertised by Pathe, since they were
already happily contracted to major disc companies, i.e. Odeon, HMV or Zonophone."
Christian Zwarg elaborates: “In 1908 Hunting left Odeon, and sold off
the masters for his Sterling cylinders to Pathé, who proceeded to
issue a large selection of them on their vertical-cut discs, apparently without
informing the new owners of Odeon. They promptly sued their exclusive artists
for breach of contract when the Pathé discs came out, unaware that
these were but dubbings from cylinder recordings made legally under the same
contract (with Hunting). At this point, the ‘open letter‘ of
Hyde et al appeared in the press, who gave their affidavit that they had
never sung for Pathé, which was perfectly true.”

108) HMS Pinafore (Gilbert and Sullivan)
Odeon's HMS Pinafore was recorded in London ca June 1907 and released
on ten double-sided 10¾ in. discs with essentially the same cast as
earlier. They were, for all practical purposes complete recordings, with
just the odd song missing, plus miscellaneous cuts. They had more cohesion
than the quasi-complete sets G&T issued around the same time. Interestingly,
the principals posed in costume for a cast photograph to accompany the album
with which the discs were sold although they could, of course, be bought
individually.
