CD: (’92) Telstar 2CD set TCD2622.

This set is billed as “London Symphony Orchestra” (without naming a conductor) and as “Licensed from Hit Bound Records, Australia”. But the performances of three of these works are not those on the preceding album and there would have been insufficient session time for the other titles. No other matching sessions have been traced, so this is probably a false attribution.
