This LP has the same contents as the K7 recently posted by the good Stefan at the Worldservice blog here. I have not checked that carefully, like track times and such, but all the tracks seem to match and the order is the same so I assume they are identical edits as well. This particular series on Kaleidophone consisted of 10 LP's and I will post all of the others here and also some more individual volumes from earlier series on Decca and Gallotone but I only have random numbers from those catalogue.
