My gran gave me this one the other day for my collection, was her dad's. Feels odd thinking he listened to them aswell :P

Mel gives a 3:08 clinic on how to swing with this piece. Great!

I had this record in the late 50's. Was searching to listen to mountain greenery. I feel sure it was on the other side of the disc. Thanks. Nice to here this one again.

Yes you are right Mountain Greenery is on the other side of this disc - he sang both on stage.

Thanks for the info.

I still have the 78 and actually saw Mel on stage at the time (I was about 18).  Record got into charts and it brought him to England, he never forgot us - were a loyal bunch. he really was fantastic to watch as well as listen to and I was a life time fan. Thank you.

Thanks for putting this back on youtube. I missed listening to it over the last few weeks.
