- Notes to the track titles-
Some tracks are represented by graphical symbols that are not reproducible in unicode, especially the following:

B3d: 'L2' is encircled.
B4c: '2L', '2N', '2V', '2S' are all encircled
B6a to B6d are preceded with a drawn line, all in a different shape
C3d and C4c: 'L2' is encircled
C6a is preceded by a drawn shaped line
C6b is preceded by drawn angles
C6c is approximated, but the inverted chevrons all show a different angle.
C9: 'L2' is encircled.
D7a and D7b are represented by drawn lines, slightly tilting.
D7c and D7d are represented by drawn lines with a slight angle around the middle.

"ARC" in matrix indicates Allentown Record Company. Text is lightly etched, including the potential processing date, as noted on ARC page. "RL" in runout indicates Bob Ludwig. RL not present on side 4 runout and catalog number is hyphenated, other three sides are not.
