Hi Taylor,

That was me. Glad I was able to come up with at least one good copy of that 
record. In fact, I've been lucky I guess to find three good copies of that 
one.

dl, That record has been one of my biggest bugbears of all time...I've run
through about fifteen copies trying to find one which doesn't sound like
crap. About a year ago, one of you good people sent me a really nice copy
which is the best one I've heard yet. I can't remember who it was...Don,
was it you? Greatly appreciated, whoever it was.

David is right that the Columbias from '42 are badly pressed...don't know
why. I'm not too thrilled with the pressings of a lot of the post-war ones
either, but have found a few plastic d.j. copies which are nice.

So if anyone has Klean Kyser Kolumbias, talk to me!
