[78-L] Glenn Gould on 78

[David Lennick]

I actually do have a Glenn Gould 78 in my possession, a lacquer test cut at 
Hallmark Studios. Might be off air. And some of the source material on the 
"Young Glenn Gould" issues on various labels came from 78 lacquers.

I found a nice copy of "SYWTWAF" in the Keith Roos collection a couple of years 
ago (and of course it was reissued by Columbia on LP). Matter of fact, it had 
been scotch taped to a near mint copy of "Sounds in Space", which made me more 
than a little furious since it totally f*cked up an album that is very 
difficult to find in better than F condition most times.

There ended the excitment!  What I found was that someone had stuck a Glenn Gould recording which was released on a seven inch square piece of cardboard on to a 78 for support.
