Notes

Recorded in Hackensack, NJ; April 23, 1956. On spine: © 1982 Prestige Records. Printed in USA. Runouts are etched except ' · P · ' on side B which is stamped and denotes a pressing by MCA Pressing Plant, Pinckneyville considering 25mm pressing ring. Etched 'P' on runout side A comes likely from this similar release which is pressed by Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Pitman. Due to 25mm pressing ring, 'T1' etched in runouts denotes plating by Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute. There are also 4 faint rings (47, 56, 60, 68mm) which look more like paper label rings than pressing rings. Front and back sleeve are laminated. Back has plain white background. Not slightly grey with a white border and not stuck on cardboard as it is on this similar release. Publishers: - A1, B2: Prestige Music - BMI - A2: Jewel Music/Yellow Dog Music - ASCAP - B1: Warner Bros. Music - ASCAP
