THANK YOU LIZZIE!!!!!!!!!!!

It certainly looks like the record I knew!
I could tell by the content listed and the orchestra which was credited; I knew it was an "educated" children's record, done with style and class.
So glad someone out there knew what I was searching for - that record plays a bit role in the sentimental and musical memories of my childhood.
I've just informed my sister and a Scottish friend who equally remembers those interpretations and who also loves to sing them.
We were reared 12 years apart and an ocean away from each other, but he remembers the same orchestration, the same narrator, singers, etc

Thanks!! Now we're off to try and find a copy of the recording.
Cheers!
Alice
