Funny you should ask. I mentioned this record in an MMD post way back
on 21 July 1997. I wouldn't consider it to be a favourable review. :(

The more recent record that was recorded at the Musee Mechanique is
far better, but lacks the 1950's cheeziness that I'm sure you'd
appreciate.  Feel free to contact me for more info...
