Sy Oliver composed and arranged "Opus One" for the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra in 1944, and it was a huge hit for the Dorsey band. Ten years later on September 17, 1954, Sy Oliver & His Orchestra reworked the tune for the Mills Brothers, and it was a hit all over again.

  • Look at the Clip of them performing Opus One with Nat King Cole. They really really swing at a Tempo much faster than this. I feel sorry for Nat.
