Great little artifact. Ironically, I think they were using MONO records (the RCA maroon label) for the demo! I guess the stereo versions weren't ready when they produced the promo film. (Can anyone confirm my assumption?)

Some of the best sounding records I own.
As for a little history on Living Stereo, the first recording was done on Oct. 6, 1953. RCA released the first stereo reel-to-reel tapes in 1955. In 1958 the first Living Stereo records were finally released.
