ANYONE have any Pete Cassell records from around 1949? They'd be on KING label.

Doesn't ANYONE have records by this fellow?
They were on KING Label. I tho't there were several KING label collectors on this Forum?
I could've been wrong?

In reference to Pete Cassell records on Kind, if anyone would have any it would be Ed Naylor. You can see his posts on Our Extended Family section

I have a qyarter million old records, but , I don't recall any by Pete Cassel. If I am not mistaken he was on the Wheeling Jamboree.I do however have a coupl e records on 4 STAR label of a guy named DELBERT BARKER.. I love these post- makes me want to go look thru OLD RECORDS and remember how musi used to be. The King # 501 was the Shepard Bros. In reality - MERLE TRAVIS and GRANDPA JONES.

Pete's first and more than likley his most popular was "A Message To The One I Love".

Great voice with a unique style.
I believe this was recorded on London records.Possibly Mercury Records,I dont beleive it was on King records,I may be wrong,BUT??<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Jody Carver on 30 December 2002 at 10:21 AM.]</p></FONT>
