[78-L] OT-Movie "NEW ORLEANS" Soundtrack on 4 16" Discs

[kil at roadrunner.com]

I don't believe this is OT at all.  Try this 1929 film of the same name...

They only seem to list one song from the film, PALS FOREVER, which should help you confirm.  But it does mention a Tiffany-Stahl Production, which might be a clue.  The search is on to find the rest of the soundtrack.
