Bravo, Andrew Barrett, for your fabulous review of the LP album,
"Honky Tonk In Hi-Fi," bought by my father in 1960 when we visited
the (now defunct) Musical Museum in Deansboro for the first time.

I have always regarded it as the "Sargent Pepper" of orchestrion
recordings.  It has amazing arrangements, but also amazing blend.
Did the engineers have the front covers closed?  (That is, after all,
the way the manufacturers designed them to be played out in the field!)
At any rate, the pianos are richer than we usually hear.

Thanks for identifying my favorite track, "You Know You Belong To
Somebody Else", that was mislabeled on the cover.  You even gave the
pianist (Gus Drobegg), so I could turn to Warren Trachtman's web site
and hear a clean MIDI file of the arrangement.  What a time to be
alive -- you made my day!
