This was written for the 1929 "talkie" version of the Marx Brothers' 1925 Broadway hit "The Cocoanuts" by none other than the one responsible for the original score, Irving Berlin (although it never became a hit, people who've seen the film KNOW where it came from). Ferde Grofe [who later became famous for writing the "Grand Canyon Suite"] arranged this one. Bix and Andy Secrest "share" their solo here...
Nice to hear this one so clean. Hardly a pop! Nice work.
