The most popular version of TOOLIE was by the Andrews Sisters.  It was 
written by Vaughn Horton, the man who was also resposible for these 
classics, MOCKIN' BIRD HILL, CHOO CHOO CH-BOOGIE, ADDRESS UNKNOWN, SUGAR 
FOOT RAG, and PENNSYLVANIA TURNPIKE I LOVE YOU.

No typo, I was sorta bragging that I had that many.  I would have had 202 
but the last two I bought online arrived broken.
I don't own and never have owned a 78 player.  I take that back, I do have 
one that plays at 78 but I can't get needles for it.
So for the above two reasons I let others do the transfers and just collect 
the music.  I also transferred around a thousand myself from a friend's 
collection, but those are the least favorite of mine.  Too much surface 
noise.
