Argh!  I was reading "Lazy River" and thinking "Lazy River," but wrote 
"Lazy Bones."  Sorry for the confusion.

The "Lazy River" from "Pete Fountain's New Orleans" is a different 
recording.  Greg Harrison confirms that the one you have was released on a 
1962 Pete Fountain-Al Hirt LP called "Bourbon Street."  It does look as if 
the personnel I listed is correct (the liner notes on the LP are badly 
muddled).
