Re: [ARSCLIST] More supermarket records, more mysteries

[David Lennick <dlennick@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It isn't going to unmask the masked in the classical field, no, but it does 
give surprising info about a number of these labels and the record clubs which 
somehow are linked to YPR, lots of history behind that label and other 
children's recordings of the period, who actually recorded the Benny Goodman 
concert, what the "interruptions" were on one of the Six Songs For Democracy, 
who was caught in bed by Olga Samaroff, stuff about YPR, CRG, Cub, Allegro 
Junior and more.
