All
stereo pressings of "Saturday Night With Mr. C." excluded the track
"Come
Rain or Come Shine"
- despite having
the title clearly printed on the jacket. It is assumed that this 'cut'
had something to do with
- space limitations within the new stereo format LP
recording. This song was re-
released in 1967 within the
- RCA Camden compilation "Hello, Young Lovers,"
CAS-2122 (e), but the
stereo version was electronically
- reprocessed from monaural.
-
- A
special abridged tape edition of "Saturday Night With Mr. C." may actually have
been released prior to the vinyl album
- in early
1958. The tape is either an
edited/abridged 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.
-
- Notes:
~ introduced by Ruby
Hill and Harold Nicholas in the Stage musical "St.
Louis Woman."
- The first popular recording was by
Margaret Whiting with Paul Weston's Orchestra for
Capitol.
