By the way, do you have the 78rpm record called "Nina-Non" sung by Joni James(Released from MGM)? I have it, but it is so worn out so I can't listen it.

Hi, Mark--
The music I've been using lately is "Swaltzing with Faust" by Fats Waller. You can find it on a collection called "Fine Arabian Stuff" that came out on HighNote Records a few years ago. I think it's fairly available. The rest of the CD is good, too, Fats mostly doing public domain tunes at a 1939 session.
Unfortunately, I don't have any Joni James records, so I can't help you out there. Thanks for listening!
