This was not "promotional" per se, it was sold in stores. (that's where I
got mine).  Audio quality was horrendous...every song in muddy/tinny fake
stereo. It was pretty common practice in the late 60s for radio stations to
put out their own oldies compilation albums...'RKO did at least 3 (I have
all 3)...30 Now Goldens Vol 1 & 2 and a Hall of Fame album.  All on Post
(more to come!) records.  At least the second 2 had real stereo where available.
