Kinda hard to believe that Kern got pissed of at these...much less that they're still not reissued anywhere(?) except on an old Phoenix LP..and these are allegedly in need of pitch adjustment?!?!?!?! (not sure about that, the keys are funny, but the timbres all sound right to me).
Sorry, I still can't take Johnny Richards seriously...nothing to do with his gifts, which are obvious, just that everything he does is...nothing I can take seriously.
But if you got an OG of this thing, hey, you got a little bank!
