[Dixielandjazz] Firehouse Five + Two

[Don Robertson]

I'm not even sure they made any '78's.  I suppose they did, but I never 
saw any.  They came in to prominence about the time '45's were 
introduced 1949.  My first FHF +2 "album" was a box of '45's.  I think 
it was the first one they produced.  I sure never heard DTSB by them.

The inquirer says that he once had a 78 recording of them playing this tune and wants to locate a record, tape or CD of it.  I've no idea.  I inquired of esteemed list member Hal Smith who advises that the band never recorded that number.  I know that if anyone would know, it would be Hal!  However, in the interest of leaving no stone unturned, I'm tossing this out to the DJML.  Anyone know of the existence of this recording?
