[78-L] Records about records, especially 78s

[David Lennick]

PS..I presume the BPO DB means is the Boston Pops Orchestra, not the Berlin 
Philharmonic (or Buffalo Philharmonic). Hard to imagine Herbie playing Leroy 
Anderson.

I think it was released first on a 78 but no matter what format it's on, it shows its connection to the 78 format by imitating a stuck record at the 78 rate of rotation.  It starts with the sound of a coin going into a juke box then runs through a bit of the Fest March from Tannhauser as I recall, (I haven't heard it in many years), before bringing in the theme of "Music, Music, Music", at one point marrying it with a theme from the Ballet Music from "Faust" by Gounod.
