Comments
|
Since the advent of the popular LP, the Tales of Uncle Remus was converted over to save both production costs and space. Since an LP could hold so much more than three, two-sided 78's, they had almost an entire B side to fill, which is why there are unrelated Song of the South tracks on the record.
