[78-L] Goodman / Carnegie at 80

[David Lennick]

Let me clarify..Tatum had been recorded on tape, and 3 studios (or maybe 3 
private collectors with cutters) had each been given some of the tapes to 
transfer to lacquers. There was minimal duplication on the discs. There was 
also a slow speed tape, copied from 3 original reels, duplicating some of the 
lacquers.

>> Neither have been commercially released. But there's always hope that a legitimate agency will do the right thing.
