In the Land of Hi-Fi was a Patti Page album issued by Mercury Records on its EmArcy label. The catalog number of the monaural version, first released in 1956, was MG-36074, and of the stereophonic version, released in 1958, it was SR-80000. It was later reissued as Mercury MG-20516 (mono) and SR-60192 (stereo), titled Patti Page With The Pete Rugolo All Stars.
