Album Info

Release Date: 1961

Label: Westinghouse Electric Corporation

The disc is unbanded but features a brief "ethnic" instrumental followed by two vocal pieces describing the fabulous new features of Westinghouse's 1961 Mainliner and Herculiner brands of fluorescent lighting. Lots of talk about ballasts... the record closes with a clear call to action: "You gotta sell!"

"Mainliner" was featured during a WFMU interview (https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/53238) with Steve Young and Sport Murphy about their 2013 book on industrial musicals, "Everything's Coming Up Profits".

Label name imputed from the recorded content. Light grey blank label on the B. My copy found in a generic brown paper sleeve.
