I was walking past a sheet music store yesterday, purely by chance, and I remembered this thread.

I went in and asked the two old-timers inside if they had "Quiet Village by Leslie Baxter as recorded by Martin Denny".

They said it is still in print, and they would order it for me.

However, they can't just order one piece from the publisher, they have to order a bunch of music at one time. Since the publisher is a small one, they siad it might take weeks or months before they get it. They have to accrue enough requests for material from this publisher to make an order worth their while.

I told them that if they wanted to order a half dozen copies of QV, that I could 'probably' pass them on to friends. That might expedite the order.

So stay tuned - let's see what this oldster comes up with for me.

Oh, BTW, he told me that he was 'pretty sure that there was a whole album of music like this at one point'! I replied that I thought 'there might have been several'. :)
