[78-L] Westminster - Prokofiev L'ange de Feu (The Flaming Angel)

[Thomas Stern]

Hi David,
  Thanks!
  Think that was one of the sources in which I saw that listing.
  Did a little further digging - looks like WST 300 series is an early
1970's
"ABC-Audio Treasury series".  Anyone have
info about this series ???  
  There was a Westminster reissue series with IIRC  uniform two-tone ORANGE
jackets
for covers (no art work), and the old Westminster liner (jacket back notes).
Those were quite a good way to acquire some interesting Westminster
releases.
  The later Westminster "Gold" series had bizarre artwork - probably trying
to be cute and attract a non-classical music audience.  Thought most of
those jackets were awful.
  If anyone has an example of the "Audio Treasury" series jacket, I'd
appreciate a scan.
  THANKS!
Cheers, Thomas.

CLOR says 3 discs on Vega, 4 on Westminster..don't know if that's an error
or they didn't feel they could comfortably get it onto 3 discs at the time.
It runs only 116 minutes.
