[78-L] Why I love collecting 78's

[Robert M. Bratcher Jr.]

Yes it's the 1954 recording issued in stereo  & I have the 1954 issue & it's the 
exact same preformance as the LSC-1817 version. My LSC-1817 is the 1S stamper & 
my LSC-2267 is a later stamper plus that record has a different cover.  I wonder 
why they rerecorded it with a different LSC number & RCA issued LSC-1817 later 
on CD.

Isn't this the short-lived stereo issue of the 1954 recording, replaced fairly 
soon by the remake on LSC 2267?
