[78-L] Archive - Collector - do you have Apollo 1067 ??

[Thomas Stern]

Hi David, 
  THANKS for finding the disc - can you provide the matrix numbers please!
  Is Jerry Jerome credited on the label? (He was A&R for Apollo for a few years).
Again, Thanks!
Best wishes, Thomas.

Found it! Apollo 1067 is definitely Gordon MacRae doing Old Devil Moon/I Want 
to Be Loved.
