I kind of remember that Camden LP as being better than nothing. There was a 
good CD issue done in 1997 on a label called Golden Years of Radio in 
Marysville Ontario, using discs from the CBC record library and restored by 
Graham Newton, but as far as I know this disc isn't available..you're welcome 
to search for it.

MART KENNEY--THE 78 RPM YEARS
GYR CD 100
Golden Years of Radio
R. R. #1, Marysville, Ontario Canada K0K 2N0

There are two Kenney discographies..in Mart's own book and one that also lists 
broadcasts (incomplete..I gave the author details on more that I'd found) by 
the late Ross Brethour.
