already been reissued on Checker in 1958 (see the Checker post on here)

If reissues count and the same record can be on more than one label
list, then "Mack The Knife" should be on your Atlantic list too.

You seem to have some fetish about "Mack The Knife" :-)
>
There is no reason at all for a reissue (and not even the earliest
reissue) of the song to be on my list when it comes from wayyyyyyy past
our 1963 cut off date.

Are you saying that these label lists only count releases from 1963 and
back?

Given the time period and the kind of music we generally discuss that is
 a pretty silly question

>
So something like "In The Midnight Hour" is not eligible for your
Atlantic list?

Same quote applies
