'Wie einst Lili Marlen'--Lale Andersen (1952)

The title, in English: 'As once Lili Marlen'. A medley of four songs sung by the German singer who first recorded 'Lili Marlen' for Electrola in 1939. This is Polydor 48821A; in the dead wax are the numbers 4011SS and 13.9.52, the latter presumably the date the master disc was cut (13 September 1952).

The label titling, in German:

Technical note: 5.17 is unusually long for a single 78 rpm record side's playing time, but surprisingly, this is on a 10 inch record. This was achieved through the use of variable pitch mastering, a technique used in cutting master discs for records in which the grooves are placed closer together for soft passages of music, and further apart during loud passages.
