| #23 jazzolog: It's great to get a request or 2 each year for a copy of this wonderful production of A Christmas Carol. If you're wondering about it, the entry I wrote is here www.upsaid.com/jazzolog/index.php?action=viewcom&id=60 . As soon as I hear back from Mr. Garbig, regarding his mailing address, I'll make him a CD and try to get it there before Christmas. Looks like we may be going up to Canada with it this time. |

#22 Ross Garbig: Well, it's Christmas time again and thoughts turn to Christmas Eve and the redemption of Old Scrooge. Hello and I am so glad to have found this posting. My family used to gather around the old Electrohome Hi-Fi and listen to A Christmas Carol prodcuced and narrated by Ernest Chappell. It is by far my favourite rendition of this great old Dicken's classic. The fact that it evokes wonderful memories of a happy childhood I'm sure has something to do with it, but more than that, if you listen closely you come to appreciate the care and professionalism of the production.
Unfortunately, my nephew (not Fred) broke the third disc a couple of years ago. Very fortunately I had just previously copied the discs to cassette and over the last while I have created a CD version using some PC recording software. I still have the original album with cover and liner notes in good shape and would be willing to send a picture of either/both to anyone who requests them. The version I have is DG-29 and the records are stamped by the RCA Victor Company Limited Montreal Canada. There no dates anywhere.
I contacted RCA yesterday to see if the master discs were still around but their response was that they had no 'record' of what I was asking about.
I would be interested in knowing if anyone has a cleaner CD copy of the album. It is a treasure and if so I would love to have it.
Merry Christmas. |

| #21 Kamineko: Good morning. I just wanted to apologize for coming across as oh so prickly recently in my blog reply re: Diana Krall. I am a kindhearted and gentle woman, I promise! (although, I am a naughty, biting cat!) Truce? Have a blessed day, kind Sir. Peace and all good, ~Kamineko (yes, THAT Kamineko) |

#19 Henry: Thank you, Richard, for your comments about John T. on my blog. I will probably see you at the service on July 1st. John was my children's grandfather.
I was happy to learn, on your blog, that someone was putting together an edition of the Mario Plays.
best wishes,
Henry |
