Newly arrived incomer from Florida needs information

Can anybody out there shed more light on the Spurlock Trio? Madge, Clifford and Lena? Madge Spurlock Barnett? Acme Record & Radio Corporations of Columbia, KY? The 78 rpm promo My Sins Are Gone? Tom Newton at over in Edmonton needs to know

To the editor, ColumbiaMagazine.com:

Mr. Tom Newton has recently moved here from Florida. He has opened a very unique nostalgic music store in Edmonton. He recently purchased a large amount of old albums and in that group was a old 78 promo recorded at ACME Record & Radio Corporations at Columbia, KY.



The record was My Sins are Gone by the Spurlock Trio: Clifford, Lena and Madge. The flip side is Whispering Hope played on the accordion by Madge Spurlock Barnett. Mr. Newton is a history buff and would like to know the history behind this studio, etc.

He came to my office with the record and asked if there was a museum in Columbia that he could donate the record to. I told him that I had two good contacts that would let me know a good place he could give the record.

Please let me know if you know any information about this recording studio and a good place to donate the record. Thanks for your help with this matter.

Thanks, Executive Director Gaye Shaw. You have come to the right place. While within the vast store of information at ColumbiaMagazine.com does not contain an inkling, a scintilla, even one iota of answers about which you've inquired, we are glad for our readers to get aholt of the question before Nolan Porterfield flips out the answer out of his head on WKYU-Fm on his famous "Old Scratchy Records" show. It is with great pride and a sense of national urgency that a call is issued for someone to come forward with these answers. Hoping every reader is taking the rest of the day off to investigate, and come up with answers, which will be immediately forwarded to you, with ColumbiaMagazine.com claiming as much credit as we can, we send you our best. We always try to help anyone in Adair's child county of Metcalfe.-EW
