Hi Ted,
agreed: In the Mood is an incubus or a kind of acoustical zombie. I will
look out for the Artie Shaw version, though.
I don't agree that the young lady must have been a student of jazz history
because in that case she would have requested the Billy Strayhorn
arrangement of King Porter Stomp, don't you think? ... actually, we have
those "Dr. Jazz" types in Europe as well and they can't tell a clarinet from
a squeezed shadow cat.

Thanks for the very useful good wishes and same to you and all,
danyel
