Early 70s, no doubt Dynaflex.  But Red Seal.  If anyone has it, I'd love a copy.  Reply privately, if desired.  Though publicly might jazz up the list a bit.  Just a thought.

Dear Mike,
The only Ernie Carson recording for RCA that I could find is this one:

Turk Murphy
Let The Good Times Roll.  Vic LPM2501
Ernie Carson (c,t) Turk Murphy (tb,vcl) Bob Helm (cl,vcl) Pete Clute (p) Bob Short (tu) Frank Capp (d) Pat Yankee (vcl) 
Los Angeles, May 1, 1961
M2PB0338    Panama    (unissued)
M2PB0339    Terrible blues    
M2PB0340    Alexander's ragtime band (py vcl)       
M2PB0341    Tin roof blues (py vcl)      
M2PB0342    Sweet Georgia Brown      
M2PB0343    Lonesome road       
Los Angeles, May 2, 1961
M2PB0344    Struttin' with some barbecue     
M2PB0345    Big butter and egg man       
M2PB0346    Wild man blues       
M2PB0347    Paddle-wheelin' along        
M2PB0348    Tiger rag              RCA ANL1-1431(e)
M2PB0349    Bilboa song       
   		    Let the good times roll        
Note: RCA Victor LPM2501(mono) = LSP2501(stereo).
RCA ANL1-1431(e) titled "The best of dixieland"; rest of LP by others.

Too early for RCA Red Seal Dynaflex that was introduced in the early 1970s
However, the Murphy LP has a Victor (HMV logo) Red Seal label.
Kind regards,
Bill.
