[78-L] Selah Jubilee Choir MASTERSEAL LP and REMINGTON LP

[David Lennick]

Here's a Remington EP that identifies 4 of these selections as by the Dixiaires:

Same 4 titles as starting the Plymouth 12" lp and Remington RLP 1023. Precious 
memories, My Dungeon Shook, Joshua, Down by the Riverside. I contend that the 
only cuts by the Selah Jubilee Singers on this lp are "Sit Down" and "I'll be 
Listening Somewhere". The remaining 8 could be by the Dixiaires or by another 
similar group recording for Continental.
