ONLY NON SINGING RECORDING BY FRANK. IN 1957 MY DAD MANAGED "THE LANE" THEATRE IN PHILADELPHIA. "THE LANE" WAS AN ART THEATRE AT THE TIME AND IN 1957 PLAYED "OEDIPUS REX', FOR WHICH MY DAD WON A NATIONAL AWARD FOR ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION OF THE FILM. HE COULD NOT FIND MUSIC SUITABLE FOR PLAYING BEFORE THE PICTURE OR FOR THE EXIT OF FILM GOERS AT THE END. HE FOUND THIS RECORD AND USED IT AT THE THEATRE. AFTER THE FILM'S RUN THIS RECORD WAS MY FIRST 33 1/3 RECORD. IT IS W735 WITH SIDE 1 AS W1-735-D4 AND SIDE 2 AS W2-735-D2. THE COVER IS 'GOOD' - IT IS 57 YEARS OLD. THE RECORD IT SELF HASN'T BEEN PLAYED IN OVER 25 YEARS!
