Benny Goodman recorded an arrangement of it for Bluebird in the thirties--possibly one by Fletcher Henderson. He also redid the same arrangement in 1971 for concert in Stockholm, I think. You can get it on Verve's "Compact Jazz" CD for Benny.

TKS, Bob, they are not that good anymore, but I do hear you. The B S !! I heard recently was a brief playing for a TV commercial, a nice cl touch, J Moses??? I'll check over my Artie recs/tapes, bet he "waxed" it also. Don

Thanx, Mark, Don

Really hard to guess since it was so popular I guess "everybody" played and recorded it....just like Blue Moon
