[78-L] DESIGN LP--was: Re: Unexpected ET (was NON-sexy!) LP

[david.diehl at hensteeth.com]

 The Only one I remember that might fill the bill was a reissue of Dorsey Brothers Associated ET's from early 1935. It was typical of their '30's output: Solitude, By Heck, Dippermouth, Weary Blues plus some Bob Crosby vocals on I Was Lucky and Night Wind. Fine music, atrocious re-engineering. I think HMV also released it.
