notes

Newly remastered from the original mono master tapes

Additional note:
This release of "The Bewitched" is the only release that is faithful to the original master tape, which was recorded in "full track monaural".
There are several previous releases of "The Bewitched" on the CRI label that claim to be "stereo". They are not actually in stereo, but rather from a now largely discarded process to imitate "stereo".
To put it simply, there is only one full length release of "The Bewitched" that is not in fake stereo: this one.
