Notes
Mono reissue.
Columbia mono 6-eye labels were used from 1958 to 1961 (), so this is a late 1950's or an early 1960's reissue.
'H' in runouts suggests this is a Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Hollywood pressing, which also makes sense, knowing the relative dating via labels, as this pressing plant was closed in 1963. As this record is on the Columbia label, this 'H' does not suggest this as a RCA Records Pressing Plant, Hollywood pressing.
Recorded 12-14 July 1954
No publishing rights companies nor rights societies given.
