Re-recorded to tape by Jerry Valburn from original material provided by Valburn and Robert Altschuler.
In reprocessing this material in 1969, every effort has been made to compensate for severe limitations of early recording and manufacture by optimum use of modern noise supression and filtering equipment. At the same time, original tone qualities have been retained to the greatest extent possible and no artificial enhancement or rechanneling has been introduced.

Reissued by special arrangement with John Steiner and with Orpheum Productions Inc.
