Hi Bill - Actually look for "Suzie Blue" by Ben Harper.  The song was recorded 
under his name and his record label.  He just used the Real Time JB for this one 
track on the album.  Thanks for the video you found! I've often wondered what 
'compensations' bands had to make to get their songs to fit on one side of a 78 
and this video had some interesting ideas.

Dear Katie,
I went looking for "Suzie Blue" by the Real Time JB, but came up with nothing.
If that is what you meant.
Plenty of clips by Ben Harper.
While 'surfing' this one I found the following interesting video:

We used to play with the ODJB 78 records in this way and reached a similar 
conclusion.
We also did the same with King Oliver's "Alligator Hop", but I could never 
convince my dear mate, the late John RT Davies.
Very kind regards,
Bill.
