[78-L] First LP

[David Lennick]

I Can Hear It Now Vol. 2 was released on 78s..I have it (in one of those "let's prove it exists" situations). Don't know about Volume 3. Tape was definitely used for Volume 1. The radio program of similar name didn't come along until 1950.

 

Good night and good luck.
