The record
Rudy Van Gelder cut the lacquers on this one, which is the detail that will stop a jazz browser mid-flip. The record itself is filed as a compilation -- fifteen songs including 'Botany Bay', 'Mrs. McGrath' and 'The Lowlands Of Holland' -- sung by Robin Roberts, who also plays guitar and wrote the liner notes. Kenneth S. Goldstein produced. Prestige PR-INT-13017, mono, 1961.
