The 6 guitar duets by Carl Kress and Tony Mottola which came out on a  
10" Capitol
"Classics In Jazz" LP are well-known as being off-pitch (too fast,  
namely 3 semitones sharp!),
and I wonder if these tracks were ever issued on 78s?  I believe they  
were issued on 45s at the
same fast pitch.

Who decided to speed them up and add the reverb?  Dave Dexter?
