credit should not go entirely to his brilliance, for he was industrious as well.

I had an old LP recording of one of Henery Cowell's Hymn and Fuging Tunes, probably from the late 1950's or early 1960's. I believe it was on the Unicorn label. The album was A UNICORN SAMPLER as I recall. There was also a recording of Charles Ives THE UNANSWERED QUESTION on the record. Anyone have any idea if there is a place to find old recordings like this? I lost the record some years ago, and really miss those two works.
