That find (The Pledge of Allegiance with Stokowski and the AAYO playing 
the Star Spangled Banner) is indeed a nice one.  There's another Goddard 
Lieberson treasure -- an "extended soundtrack" for a Lieberson tribute 
"dedicated to the wit and wisdom ad inspiration of Goddard Lieberson for 
his family, his friends and his colleagues at CBS Records who will never 
forget what he was like... and for those too young to know."  The LP 
record is housed in a hard-cover, linen-bound book with dozens of 
photographs of the man and of recording sessions he supervised.  A fine 
memorial to a great figure in the record industry.
