GUEST,Henry Piper of Ottery The first long play album ever released (20) RE: The first long play album ever released 30 May 18

In 1944/5 The Singer Lee Wiley released an album of Songs by George and Ira Gershwin, accompanied by Musicians assembled by Eddie Condon. I believe there were 4, possibly 5 78rpm singles in one package with notes and artwork.

I believe this is the first "album" devoted to the work of a single composer(s).
