George Gershwin's "Lady Be Good" by the Metropolis Swing Quartet recorded at the Royal Castle Hotel on 8th May 2011 during the Dart Music Festival.
"Oh, Lady be Good!" is a 1924 song by George and Ira Gershwin.
The song was introduced by Walter Catlett in the Broadway show, Lady, Be Good!, written by Guy Bolton, Fred Thompson, and the Gershwin brothers, starring Fred Astaire and Adele Astaire. It ran for 330 performances in its original Broadway run. The song is also performed in the 1941 film, Lady Be Good, though the film itself is unrelated to the musical play.
It became a regular soon for the Benny Goodman small groups -- trio and quintet etc.
