Re: usage question (liner notes)

[Lori Cahan-Simon <l_cahan...>]

Who (besides me) remembers when Robert Crumb and his Keep-on-Truckin' 
Orchestra put out a 78 in  1972 on the Ordinary Record label (whose 
motto is "a high standard of standardness") with an instrumental 
"Wisconsin Wiggles", featuring string band with musical saw, and a song 
with vocal, "River Blues" on the other side.  I really enjoyed that one. 
 I wonder if that was the last 78 ever issued?
