[78-L] Tom Lehrer

[Bertrand CHAUMELLE]

I have:
"Songs by Tom Lehrer" TLP1 with an address on the back: Box121, 
Cambridge 38, Mass.

"An Evening Wasted With T.L." TL202 (mono)

and also "The Funny Side of Rudy Vallee" on Jubilee, but who cares ? 
Maybe it's a terrific record, I haven't listened to it, yet.
