[78-L] Unexpected sexy LP

[David Lennick]

I just auditioned it briefly..it does in fact contain Christmas music. It's 
also the noisiest vinyl I've heard in years..and the center hole is badly 
trimmed, so the disc barely fits over the spindle (and is THIS ever going to 
open up an entire "It's tight like that" thread). Wonder if the record was ever 
played?

Catalog number as on one label (the picture side has the gal posing across the 
whole disc including the label) is SDLP-X-18 (-A, -B). The printed label on 
side B is barely readable, being gold with what may have been brown print 
that's merged with the label background.
