Michael, I used to go to my Aunt's house in L.A. and spend a weekend, and listen to her cast albums - all on 78s. The albums with 12" rather than 10" 78s played 30 seconds longer on each side. OKLAHOMA was a six 12" lp set, 12 songs each running around 3.5 minutes. Lonely Room, Farmer and the
Cowhand, and Its A Scandal were not recorded - nor was the 'Out of my Dreams ballet." |
