TOO MUCH TAUBER?
»Sir,--May I ask, in a spirit of sweet reasonableness, why we are treated in season and out of season to a steady diet of Richard Tauber? Is there any embargo on the recordings of, say, Joseph Hislop, not to mention a number of other equally pleasing tenors? Whether or not, please give Tauber .decent interment, even if you must resurrect him after a long, a very long, period. Incidentally, would it be possible to give us once again a series of that delightfully amusing "Mamma _ Bloom’s Brood"? Besides its beautiful clean humour, it has the advantage of being a mueh safer fabulum for young and adolescent New: Zealanders than the extremely dangerous gangster records which apparently are regarded as a safe diet for youth in its most impressionable
stage.
