One of the first sides released from what appears to have been Whiteman's first electrical Victor session of 6 May 1925. At first this recording (backed with 'Just a little drink') was to be issued on Victor 19659, but for whatever reason, that idea was scrapped, and the same coupling then appeared on 19666.

Matrix BVE.32573-4; transferred at 76.6 rpm.

Enjoy!

Great fun tune and also nice to hear an early electrical recording of this great band. Its surprising how good even the very early electricals sounded.
