My U.S. commercial 45 of 'Most Of All' by Don Cornell (Coral 61393) states a run time of (2:51), but I timed it at (2:55). This song remains unreleased on a domestic CD and I have been unable to find it on an import. Stay clear of the Madacy release, Rock N Roll Reunion - Class of 55, which contains a re-recording of the song.

I have what I believe is the correct hit version of "Most of All" on a Don Cornell 2-CD import compilation called Most of All released on the Jasmine label.
The song also appears on a 2-CD compilation called http://www.doncornell.com/p3.htm - I'll Be Seeing You , which is exclusively available on Cornell's website at http://www.doncornell.com - www.doncornell.com . The set is pricey at $45.00 (which includes shipping) but I believe the tracks are taken from tape sources.
The Most of All Jasmine compilation is far less expensive and I wouldn't be surprised if the tracks were lifted from the Don Cornell website CDs because the sound quality is very good.

Thanks for the info, T.I. I actually have one of the sets sold on the Don Cornell website, Something To Remember Me By..., but I wasn't aware of the set you mention. The only Top 40 hits on the set I have are pre-1955 hits, but they are the hit recordings. It's dated 1995 (when Cornell was still alive) and was released through Universal Music Special Markets. I'm 95% sure I purchased it from DisCollector (from which I also used to purchase Pat's books). So eventhough the website says these disks are not sold in stores, they were at least at some point in time available from mail order retailers.

You're correct, sir, they are. It's fully licensed by Universal and was remastered by Marty Wekser, who did a lot of work for Varese.
