[78-L] Corrections for Decca 17000 Cajun series titles (for Tyrone)

[Tyrone Settlemier]

Cary,

How incredibly generous.  This data came from the Abrams files.  Do you know 
where he got the English titles from?  Were they part of the catalog, or did 
someone do some translation on the side?  To get to the point, should I keep 
the English data, as it is found in a catalog somewhere, or should I discard 
it?

Many, many thanks, beyond words!

Tyrone
