On the original 45 you will find these two tracks have consecutive master numbers: 7XCA 25229 (My Little Corn...

Apart from the four previously unreleased tracks, the title that is most out of chronological sequence as far as recording dates are concerned must be 'A Voice In The Choir'.

The Golden Anniversary Collection

I hope everyone has their order in place for the EMI Boxed Set, which is scheduled for release next Monday. I was pleased to see the full track listing published in the latest edition of 'In Tune' magazine which arrived this morning, and to help spread the word beyond RubyMurray.org I have just post...
