No clarinets in this arrangement - that duel is between a buzzer muted trombone and a buzzer muted trumpet (George Rock). I love the "Han Solo" kick to the honky tonk at 1:40. And it ends on a "rolling gong hit" that makes me think of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom when he rolls the huge gong across the stage and uses it as a shield...
LOVE the flirting clarinets beginning at 1:13 !!! What an arrangement!!
A truly musically great band. If you're curious to hear the "straight" Spike Jones search for "Spike Jones Laura" at this website and listen. They never miss a beat...but...then "something happens" at 1:26.
I'm still after these 30 past years cannot resist cracking a big happy ear to ear grin when I hear this bloody briliant track!

People had more fun dancing to this type of music years ago before we all got hung up on multiculturism.

@adoreslaurel While "black" refers to the racial origins of the song, there is no racism involved, so your comment is superfluous.

Has the English text also the homosexual connotation of the German one?

Man these guys were good musicians. No over-dubs, all straight takes. As a jazz musician I'd rather be playing this shit. What fun, eat this!

Another "cut" from Spike's 1950 album, "Spike Jones Plays The Charleston", an album of mostly "straight" renditions of "Roaring '20s" numbers...

What a loss to the world that Spike never unleashed his musical genius on a Spike version of Geh Bubi.
