This number is probably best remembered as one of the standout performances from the classic RCA Victor "Artie Shaw at the Blue Room/Cafe Rouge" aircheck set, capturing the 1938-39 Shaw band at its apex. The short "Second Chorus" performance featured here gives us a sense of what the chart sounded like when played by Artie's post-"Frenesi" group. (The little dialogue coda is a reminder that in the film, Fred Astaire and Burgess Meredith were in "The Perennials" - a college band whose students never graduated!)

Jul 26, 2008 - This is the honest truth- a lady in my hometown (she is still alive) was once married to Buddy Rich. Aside from the fact she's a true lady, she's held a bit in awe for anyone who knows he was one of the best all-time drummers, and was her husband!
