That's a hard question. I have several "most favorites".

I guess my favorite favorite is

"Voom! Voom!" / "Belles of Hawaii" by The Aristocrats, on Victor (acoustic lateral)

My other favorites:

"Across the Alley from the Alamo" / "Lili Marlene" by The Three Suns, on Broadcast (electronic lateral)

"I Yust Go Nuts at Christmas" / "Yingle Bells" by Yogi Yorgesson, on Capitol (electronic lateral)

"I Laughed at the Wrong Time" / "Ticklish Ruben" by Cal Stewart, on Columbia (acoustic vertical)

"Uncle Josh Buys an Automobile" / "The Village Gossips" by Cal Stewart on Victor (acoustic lateral)

SPIKE JONES - CHINESE MULE TRAIN / RIDERS IN SKY
RCA 20-3741

Or every broken copy of Bill Haley's - Rock Around The Clock I've ever seen.
Can almost hear their ol man hollerin' "Turn that crap down!"

Take it Easy by Fats Waller because it was the opening theme song for a dis jockey here in Indianapolis IN. back in the 50s. I have it on an LP but I would like to have it on a 78 to play on my Wurlitzer 1015

Greetings from FixitLand!

First post! Yeah!

My "fav 78?" Holy cats. I've got 25,000 of 'em.

Right now, I'd vote for "Rexatious" by Rex Stewart and his 52nd Street Stompers, Variety VA 517.

There are so-o-o-o many...!

Take care,
