Comments

Side-A “I Want To Be Loved” was available only on this 78rpm, until “Complete Dinah Washington on Mercury Vol.7” (Mercury [J] 18PJ-10223/26) was released in the 1980s. Furthermore, “I Want To Be Loved” (764-3) had been erroneously confused with “I Wanna Be Loved” (3409-3).

Side-B “Stairway To The Stars” also available on Mercury MG-25138 and MG-20119.
