[78-L] Columbia No. 3587, NOT Bob Roberts record after all

[David Lennick]

This seemed to happen frequently at Columbia. I have a green label Jewish 
record where one side is actually Chinese (similar matrix number or something), 
and I've had a few pressings of The Midnight Attack (Prince's Band) which are 
actually a much earlier band recording (some other "Charge" piece, so few would 
have noticed the difference).
