[78-L] Fred Waring Christmas Album

[Sammy Jones]

Thanks.  That actually sounds a little better.  Is there a way to tell if
these are master pressed?  They're in the black label Decca Personality
Series and have lead in and eccentric lead out grooves.  Even though they're
in E condition, they sure are noisy as hell!  Pretty fragile too, by the
looks of them...
