[78-L] Bud Roman..Who he?.. [FWD]

[David Lennick]

That's the album..tracks from it are scattered among a few Tops 78s. I'm 
looking at "My Blue Heaven" and "I'm In Love Again", the A side of R285-49. The 
B side is "Graduation Day" and "I Want You to Be My Girl" by The Four Fellows, 
Betsy Gay and the Lew Raymond Orchestra.
