This was broadcast over WFUV-FM from Collins Auditorium, Fordham University. Early 50s? Entire broadcast runs close to two hours and was obviously recorded on tape and transferred to high quality Soundcraft lacquers (yes, Soundcrafts that haven't turned to garbage) because the last 4 sides, believe it or not, play at 176rpm..somebody switched the playback to half speed when transferring.
