Saltburner2, I've never thought of a McCormack disc are being on the rare side considering his popularity. This is on of my most favored McCormack recordings in mt collection. Thank you for the recording date. I've added it to the descriptive on the right.

As another veteran collector, I'm in the same boat as you! This is one of the few McCormacks that had hitherto eluded me completely.

[FXM-R's discography gives 10 December 1919 as the recording date.]
