[78-L] ARC Theater records

[Taylor Bowie]

There are no "regular" issues of these,  for the most part.  All but one of 
the ones I have were not made at the same session as was the regular version 
with vocal chorus issued on Melotone,  Perfect,   et al.  They are usually 
different bands playing very different arrangements.
