Comments and Reviews


slholzer 16th Mar 2016		Each of these records might be found in three different label designs. One version has a red background and credits the artist as Ralph Flanagan and Orchestra. Unlike the album version shown, 30401A with the red background also says "Featuring Bobby Hackett." I'm guessing the other red versions also identify the soloists referred to in the liner notes, although the notes neglected to mention Bobby Hackett in connection with "Make Believe" The third version is similar to those illustrated except that the words "Rainbow Records Present" are not centered over the spindle hole but offset to the left side of the label. None of the offset variants I have seen refer to the soloists, but I haven't seen a lot of them. I'm guessing the reds were sold as single discs. Both black backgrounded versions could have been album copies, but you would have to find them in their album to confirm that. (by the by, thanks for including the notes and inside jacket photos. Some of these photos are quite rare.)
