Well my stereo LSC 1817 is the exact same recording as the older 1954 
LM 1817. I don't have VICS 1012 or LSC 2267 though so will also look 
for them. I do have a mono LM 2267 which has both a different cover & 
a different performance than the 1954 or 1947 version & it's a shaded 
dog label. So they did release the '54 version in stereo before the 
'58 one was released. Why? I have no idea....
