If you don't have the details then I could ask it there.

> City, Basin St. Blues, Chiquita, Lazy River, 'Tain't What you Do, King
> Kong, Blueberry Hill (expendable), Gonna Build a Mountain, If YouCan't
> BE Good, Be Careful (a male singer that sounda like neither Lonnie
> Donegan nor Barber to my ears), Stevedore Stomp, I Can't Give You
> Anything but Love, and Moose March.
