Sounds more like Chauncey Morehouse to me on drums, and Miff Mole's there on trombone (solo 1:08 to 1:27). It's definitely Fud Livingston taking the clarinet solo (on the bridge, 1:27 to 1:38), with Miff back again to 1:48. Jimmy Dorsey is the alto sax soloist for sure. It's TWO trumpets (Red and ? - hear 1:58 to 2:00, not Red there) and a trombone, a full brass section. GREAT SIDE !!

Great tune.........really swings. Rivals Bix's version.

At 2nd listen, there's actually seven men: Trumpet, trombone, clarinet, alto sax, guitar, piano & drums.

Listen closely at :26 - :27 and there's a slight overlap between clarinet & alto sax - sounds like Don Murray on clarinet with, of course Jimmy Dorsey and that perpetually polished sound on alto sax.

Couldn't say who's at piano, guitar or trombone (Bill Rank? Glenn Miller could be a possibility this early - wasn't Pollack in NYC by this time?), but I'll lay even money that that's Gene Krupa on drums.
