This special edition
version of "Saturday Night With Mr. C." may actually have been
released prior to the vinyl album in early 1958. This tape is either an
edited version of the intended release, from which a number of tracks are
missing, or the full release may have been expanded following. The tape
version does include a stereo version of "Come Rain or Come
Shine" which was later deleted from stereo versions of the vinyl
release apparently due to space limitations. The tape is described as
being 7½ inches per second and requiring "In-Line" Heads on the
tape reproducing equipment ( later described as half-track ). The tape's
description as being "Stereo-Orthophonic" instead of
"Living Stereo" is further evidence that this tape pre-dates the
vinyl release. Tape recording time is approximately 25:23.
Perry’s first full stereo recordings were made
between
February 12th and March 12th, 1958
Recorded at RCA
Victor's Studio 2, 155 East 24th Street, New York City
The
original RCA Victor release of this set was LOP/LSO-1004
which was later changed to LPM/LSP-1971.

"Stereo-Orthophonic" Tape
Recording
"Stereo-Orthophonic"
pre-recorded tape establishes a new standard of quality
in the art of recording and
reproducing sound. It offers an entirely new
experience in sound which gives the
listener a spatial, three-dimensional
effect, resulting in a greater faithfulness
to "live"
conditions than has been known
before.
This magnetic tape record is a dual
track, stereophonic recording and must be
reproduced on an in-line head, two
channel, stereophonic reproducer,
operating at 7½ inches per
second.
Equalization has been incorporated
into the recording to provide a flat
response when reproduced using
equipment adjusted to conform to the
"NARTB Magnetic Tape Standard
Reproducing Characteristic."
In stereophonic reproduction, room
size will govern the placement of speakers
and, in general, your loud speakers
should be placed in opposite corners at
one end of the room and with the axes
of the speakers intersecting at a
point about three-quarters of the room
length.
The life of this tape is virtually
unlimited if subject to
proper care and storage.
Proper Care of This Recorded
Tape:
In the event that your equipment has a
recording facility, great care should
be taken to prevent unintentional
erasure.
Under no circumstances should this
tape be brought into
contact with a magnet.
Return tape to container after use and
store in a cool, clean place.
Be sure that playing equipment is in
good condition, that tape tension and
speed are correct, that reproducing
head and driving
mechanism is clean at all times.
In the unlikely event of accidental
breakage, this tape may be easily repaired.
Your tape dealer will be able to
advise you on this.
