Hey, Don, have you got a clean copy of the unreleased first take (rec. 
c. 09/45) of Spike's "Hawaiian War Chant"? The 2nd take (rec. 02/46) was 
the common release take. The CD copy I have is pretty miserable.

One could listen to 78s in a booth in those days, I started buying used records when I discovered that the Salvation Army wasn't a military organization.  It was at the Hempstead NY SA that I met Bob Colton (sp?) who introduced me to Record Research, hence my complete run of the mag.  Have never stopped buying 78s...... Don Chichester
