I never heard this before. I didn't even know they recorded on Columbia. All the ARS stuff I know was on Polydor.

Same here. First time hearing this and I'm a fan of ARS's works

[@LilRocker2005]

If my reading serves me correctly, Polydor and some of its affiliate labels like RSO were all folding at this time, because I have found stuff by Player from around this same time on the RCA label, when everything I knew by them was on RSO
