[78-L] ARC Theater records

[Taylor Bowie]

Julian,  do you have copies of the actual records or just on LP?  I'm amazed 
to hear about any of them having vocals.  I'd assumed that the idea of them 
being instrumentals was so they'd be played as non-distracting background 
music during theater intermissions.

Thanks for the info.

Taylor

Both have Dick Robertson vocals, and the first is the same as the
regular issues.
