I really liked when you had the American in Paris original 78s up- why did you take them down? Check out my Tribute to Rhapsody in Blue and I Got Rhythm piano videos!

During the México City Olympics 1968, the german degation RDA gave to our country as a gift a package of six discs LP 33 1/3 with six hours or so of the music written by Strauss, Orff and others to the Berlin Olimpiade --or so at least I heard the news about it-, but this is record of yours is really fantastic and it's not until You Tube when I've had a real rapport to that jewels of history now! True congratulations! (B-p)
