Decca? Lou Breese's "Tennessee Fish Fry" is on Varsity 8326, mx US 1784-1 (reverse is "A Latin Tune, A Manhattan Moon And You," US 1787-1). I've got a copy, but probably not a dupe copy I can give you; can you use a transfer? (Will check to see if I do in fact have a dupe.)

The Decca release of that song was by Jimmy Dorsey and his Orchestra. A blue Decca and a blue Varsity have similar-colored labels, both with gold print.

Sorry to hear of your loss. Absolutely regrettable and absolutely preventable.

Take care,
