Hi Nicky, yes it's the full recording of the crucifixion. The material the old 78 rev records was made of was called shellac, not vinyl. vinyl plastic only came in when 45's and 33 long playing records were made in the late fifties. 78's could only play for a maximum of about five mins, so that's why a long musical piece was spread over a number of records.

So endeth the lesson, ha ha.
