A special note from Ray:

Those of you who like to listen on Walkman earphones will hear a noise on "Don't Cry For Me Argentina." It occurs in the first verse on the line: "Although she's dressed up to the nines." There's nothing wrong with your equipment, disc or cassette. It's the sound of the bass player's finger making a glissando on the metal string! I left it in for good luck. Happy listening. I hope you like the album.

Ray Conniff
