[78-L] When the Holy Grail of 78s appears, what should you do?

[RAY KILCOYNE]

The MOOD INDIGO record shouldn't be too rare as it was a #14 Billboard hit 
in 1954.  The trio consisted of Petty and his wife Violet, both keyboards, 
and Jack Vaughn on guitar.  It sounds like all three joined in on the vocal.

Thanks Royal. I picked up an E copy of that Norman Petty disc recently in a 
stack of records at an estate sale, probably paid 50 cents for it. I knew 
the name was familiar but couldn't place it's significance. Had yet to look 
it up. Now I don't have to.

About 3 years ago I found an E condition copy of his ZIGEUNENWEISER on
a mint HMV disc (mid-30s pressing with 'imported by Radio Corporation
of America' stickers on the label) for $1. At the same time I found a
V++ copy of 'Mood indigo' b/w 'Petty's little polka' by the Norman
Petty Trio on X 0040 also for $1. (Yes, he who shortly afterward
would have a skinny kid from Lubbock, Texas called Buddy Holley come
his way and make them both very famous.)
