Summary:

"Published by the Hot Record Society (HRS) of New York, a jazz record label devoted to reissuing historic jazz recordings, the HRS Society Rag was a somewhat-irregular publication intended for record collectors and fans of hot jazz. Two issues appeared in 1938, one in 1939, and then monthly from August 1940 to March 1941, with an increase in pagination and content scope. Early issues were edited by a committee of Charles Edward Smith (1904-1970), William Russell (1905-1992), Stephen W. Smith, and Dick Rieber; from 1940 Heywood Hale Broun (1918-2001) assumed editorial duties and expanded the number of pages published per issue. The journal’s advisory board lists some 20 persons, many young jazz journalists, scattered across the US, France, and England"-- RIPM Jazz.
