"Missouri Waltz"
By Steve Bentley

[ Ref. 150119 MMDigest, Unknown "Missouri Waltz" on B.A.B. roll #31

It is not the "Missouri Waltz" that I know.  I have the 88-note
roll and I also know this tune from childhood days.  There are tunes
composed in the past with the same titles, but rare.

It is also difficult to hear the exact melody sometimes on band organs,
depending on the arrangement, especially the recordings of such.
