[78-L] Lee Wiley/Liberty Music Shop

[David Lennick]

Correction..it's the 4th "songs of" album, the Harold Arlen, that has had its 
dates changed a couple of times. Ted Ono's CDs of Gershwin, Rodgers & Hart and 
Cole Porter have no liner notes and refer you to a website that now leads only 
to garbage (anyone notice that the Internet is getting ridiculously overcrowded 
and that every time you search a business name, you get anything but a direct 
connection to that business?).

So, let's peruse the Lord. As soon as the damn thing unfreezes. More anon (and 
of course "Maurice" is Fats Waller).
