Larry Clinton - - Dipsey Doodle

"For much of the decade before he formed his own band in 1938, Clinton had been one of the top arrangers, writing for the Dorsey Brothers, then Jimmy Dorsey, the Casa Loma Orchestra, and finally for Tommy Dorsey. In 1937, he arranged for Bunny Berigan, Louis Armstrong and Tommy Dorsey, the latter scoring huge hits with Clinton's "Satan Takes a Holiday" and "The Dipsy Doodle." Bea Wain and Peggy Mann were the two well known female vocalists with his band.

The late great Danny Stiles always played the Larry Clinton version of this song on his Saturday night radio show with a great female vocalist...

I'd like to see that version...

Who was the great female vocalist on that version of "The Dipsy Doodle"....?
