[78-L] Andre Popp obit

[Ray Kilcoyne]

I did a little more digging and the UK best seller seems to be the Joe 
"Fingers" Carr version on Capitol, CL 14587.  It was the only version to 
chart, and it only appeared for 4 weeks from late June to late July in 1956. 
Got as high as #24.  STUMBLING was on the flip side in the UK, whereas it 
was LUCKY PIERRE in the US.

The version I bought (and still have) was by Bob Sharples and his Music on 
British Decca.
Not sure that this was the most popular one though.
It's on Guild 's 'Golden Age Of Light Music' GLCD 5132 "Continental Flavour"
