Seek Piano Roll "Tonight You Belong to Me"
By Tom Sendall

I have "To-night You Belong to Me" on Imperial roll #06301.
It is the original 1920s song, and in playing my 45-rpm record
by Patience and Prudence and comparing the two, I'd call the
more recent version a pleasing reworking of the original, using
several of the former's verses.  Wikipedia (for what it's worth)
doesn't note any changes made in the 1950s version.

I have a second, identical copy of that roll and would offer it to
anyone interested but, unlike the first, it is falling apart before
my eyes.  I am interested in purchasing (or trading for) a copy of
"Old Cape Cod" on a piano roll if anyone has one available. It was
a 1950s hit by Patti Page.

Thanks!

Tom Sendall
