This recording was originally released on Columbia Records, catalogue number MS 6196. As far as I can tell, it has been deleted from the Columbia catalogue and is currently unavailable except as second hand copies of the original vinyl LPs.

The audio here was taken from a Canadian pressing of the original Columbia Records vinyl LP.
