Annotation

Lengths are from CD cover -- they don't exactly correspond with actual CD track lengths.

While there is no information on this CD about recording dates, as the mastering engineer of credit and co-producer of the release, I can attest that these selections were recorded to 3-track tape in Capitol Studio A, Hollywood & Vine in Los Angeles, CA between 1957 and 1963.
