Comrades! I'm looking at two tables which purport to give issue dates for 
Russian lps and finding some inconsistencies. Can anyone state with certainty 
whether these two albums were issued in 1961 or 1962? These sites can't.

010683/4: Tchaikovsky ed. Bogatyryov: SYMPHONY IN E FLAT (the so-called 7th)
	--L. Ginzburg, USSR State Symphony Orchestra
(Ormandy's 1962 Columbia recording proclaims "world premiere recording")

09807/10: Shostakovich: SYMPHONY #4; HAMLET Op. 32
	--Kondrashin/Rozhdestvensky cond. Moscow Symphony Orchestra

Each one shows up as 1962 on the first site and 1961 on the second.

(I know, play it safe and sit on them for another year.)
