good music

Red may have started out as a cornet man, but that pic shows him holding a trumpet. Anyhow, this is a good upload. I never heard of either Red or Miff before, but I really enjoyed this.

Red & Miff - two sadly underrated players! These guys are GREAT!

[SeeburgMusic]

a direct ripoff of the third theme of 1914's "Steamboat Rag".

The section with the two trumpets at 1:26 sounds like a polka band.

Notice the trumpet-like long model cornet that Red holds!

This is a great rendition. I also enjoy listening to Will Bill do this one. Thanks for the posting.

Jack Teagarden's version of this song in the 50s makes my day every day.

Nichols and Glenn Miller were both in the pit orchestra for the Braodway Show "Whooppee" (Eddie Cantor) which was conducted by Paul Whiteman in 1928. Mole also made a lot of records w/Nat Shilkret's Orch. for Victor and w/Roger Wolfe Kahn's Orch. as a studio sideman(Recording of "Just the Same" on Victor from 1927 with R.W. Kahn's Orch.)

...a little trav'ling music Sammy!!

I've always loved this song, and also the song "Fine and Dandy" both songs used for exit music by Jackie Gleason in the 1950's adn '60's on CBS.

Awesome!

Listen to the version of Benny Goodman on Vocalion 15705... If you don't have that record check it out on redhotjazz. For me personally, it's the best version of this fantastic song!

Thanks for posting this!
