Hi folks. Rust's discography says Waller recorded a version of this title for Victor in 1934 that was rejected. The recording of it released on Bluebird 5 or 6 years later is not even close. This same recording is included in two compilations I have, both produced in Italy. Does anyone know the origin of it? Is it possibly the "rejected" recording? Thanks for any input.

Re: Question About Origin Of Fats Waller Recording
There's two released recordings, five years apart.

Re: Question About Origin Of Fats Waller Recording
The first one seems to have been issued only in LP form... so maybe a rescue from the Victor vaults, unissued at the time of recording.
