[78-L] Johnny Standley

[David Lennick]

I've made the same mistake a few times in finding death dates..the date shown 
is the most recent update of the site, not the actual print date. And I hazily 
remembered that GOTV was a two-sider (or the same on both sides or something 
like that, since the copy I have buried away is a white label promo). The disc 
with Joe Frisco is unknown to me..didn't know Frisco recorded!
