  • @siddique20 Not for you obviously :)

  • This song got to #1 on the R&B chart in 1943.

    She also topped the R&B chart with "Mr. Five by Five" in 1942.

    Topping the R&B chart was very rare for white artists back then. I think the only other white artists to top the R&B chart it in all of the 1940's was Bing Crosby with "White Christmas" and Dick Haymes with "You'll Never Know".

  • @Sprongo "Up until now I only knew of the Andrews Sisters version. Which I loved. But this is even better." The Dinah Washington version from the same period is a little hard to find, but imo the best. There's a CD by her called _Anthology_ that includes it.

  • Rings with sex - outclasses any of todays warblers by far.

  • what the FUCK is this song?

  • I really like her sound ... it has a little soul to it ...

  • She was SO COOL! In fact, this tune hipped me to the fact that my parrot digs swing. No lie! I was singing "Shoo-Shoo Baby" one day and the bird went nuts! Totally dug it! Dancing around the cage, bobbing, head nodding, the whole bit. Turn out he likes Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman too. Cool to have a bird with such good musical taste.

  • frank sinatra sang this too. I wish someone would post his version too.I love this song thanks for posting

  • What an era of talented music. Thanks to my upbringing, I'm thankful to have such a hunger for big band. This is nice and smooth. At 41, I'm proud to be a jazz fan. Living life is Lindying to swing.
