Wow, Taylor, you've managed to pick ALL the sides I would have!  I'd add "On
A Slow Boat To China".  I've always loved that.  

BTW "Pushin' Sand" is one of my all time favorite 78s and seemingly known by
very few!

Sean

Oh come on,  Cary...the Kyser band esp, starting around 1940 made many, 
many superb sides.  Julian mentioned two featuring Haymer...Herbie is also 
shown to fine effect on Strip Polka.

Here are some other outstanding Kyser Columbia sides,  not one of which has 
any barking dog noise:

Can't Get Out of This Mood (Jack Martin on lead soprano sax)
Ole Buttermilk Sky (best version I've heard,  great trombone and reed 
section passages....Mike Douglas vocal)
That's The Beginning of The End (great ensemble, trombone,  trumpet solo, 
Douglas vocal).
You're So Good To Me (flip of Pushin' Sand...super Kyser "Glee Club" vocal 
with Harry Babbitt and the totally cool Trudy Erwin)
Say It Isn't So (very hip post-war Glee Club side,  complete with a few 
little boppish flats...band sounds fine as well)

And more..

I don't do a lot with many post-1940 78s but I am trying to get a clean copy

of every Kyser Columbia,  because the musical quality is so high and gets 
even better after the war.

Taylor
