     If you have one of the old original Decca 78's, the label says Matty
Matlock on clarinet....but it's WRONG!
     Every musician around New Orleans knew it was really Fazola.  I asked
Fazola why someone else's name was on the label.......it was obviously a
sore subject with him.  He said Decca had a lot of recordings of the Bob
Crosby band on file, and some clerk at Decca had used the personnel list
they had on file for a previous recording by the Bobcats.
