Meyer Davis Plays The Inaugural Ball 1961 - Kennedy
Submitted by Richard:
I have come across an album (Vinyl LP) for which I can find absolutely no
information whatsoever on line. The album is titled, "Meyer Davis Plays the
Inaugural Ball 1961". It is by Warwick Records - catalogue number W 2035.
I've searched every possible combination and simply can't find any reference
to this recording whatsoever. It plays great and the cover is in very good
condition.
