Notes: ~ The recordings of "The Lord's Prayer" and "Ave Maria" have been released here for the first time

in "Living Stereo" since the time of their original recording in 1959 at which time they were released

on a limited edition stereo RCA Victor single. All re-releases following that time were either in monaural

or electronically reprocessed stereo. These recordings were recovered and re-mixed from the original

three-track master tapes specifically at the request of George Townsend who compiled and sequenced

this compilation for Buddha Records in 2001. With appreciation to Rob Santos, Dennis Ferrante and the

RCA Records Label. A significant find.
