Well, I have that, and "Jazz Party", and "Will Big Bands Ever Come 
Back?", and many others.  Virtually all of those are "hi-fi" era and 
easy to find.  I should look into the Mosaic set if it's heavy on the 
Carney.  I'm not really into collecting 78s.  I've got records coming 
out of my ears and 78s would be even worse.  I can't afford a divorce.
