[78-L] Rhapsody

[David Lennick]

It's the first almost full length recording and definitely the first with 
orchestra. Recorded on a very hot July day, with Sanroma's fingers slipping off 
the keys, as I've read. Not a bad performance either, but badly miked.

I might point out that I've had the experience of playing the Whiteman electric for some college kids here over the last few years, and the reaction is universally very positive - 'best I ever heard - wow - that was great- etc etc.   I keep an mp3 of it on my desk top here at work for slow afternoons.
