If you find the reference, let us know.  I have all their books but not
here.  While you are looking thru Hall's 1950 book Records, note that he
did not thing too highly of the LP at that point.  Also note that he
does not mention his obvious conflict of interest in being the classical
music director of Mercury Records at that point.  The Olympian Series
Living Presence was a year or so still in the future.
