Nino Rota used this tune in Fellini's 81/2 in a beach dance scene. Now I know where he found it.....cool.

I appreciate your putting my additional information to good use, '240'. Sometimes, it's better to use an "established" reference work {say, one of Brian Rust's published discographies} than depend on a web site that might have acquired "second-hand" information. The Electrola (and Victor) labels usually didn't give credit to vocalists in orchestras at the time, often referring to them as "vocal refrain" ["mit Refrain-gesang"] or "vocal chorus".

Recorded on April 14, 1931, and originally released on [American] Victor 22678. The (uncredited) vocalist is Richard Barry, backed by a chorus of Busse's sidemen.

Thank you for your detailed information. I don't have any access to Electrola archives and in the info that was available through the web, the recording date was 1930.

The great rumba with its irresistible rhythm , and some visual fiesta too!
