[78-L] Russian LP issue dates..discrepancy

[David Lennick]

Interesting stuff..note that it leads me to the table that puts the two items 
as being issued earlier than 1962, which is good enough for me.

The last time I saw those Tempo organ records with the silver labels, if 
they're by Mitchell, they were in one of my storage units..I may be there on 
the weekend.
