  2. Hello Mark, I notice Jackie Gleason records do not contain any samples . Is there a reason? Just wondering. I want to start a collection of JG music and a sample or 2 could help me make choices.


    Thanks again for this site ! I love it

    1. Howdy John. Usually, at the time of the post if the set is found for sale by online vendors, I normally do not post a sample. A judgement call on my part. – Mark
