By 1942 the band was in full flight on live sessions like this....powerful brass and still great precision....also displayed great shading in the section work.

The 1942 studio recording by Glenn Miller, Victor 20-1546, was a monster hit in 1944, reaching no. 12 on the Billboard charts. The record was a massive "crossover" hit, peaking at no. 2 on the Billboard Harlem Hit Parade Chart, which was then the equivalent of the R&B chart. Woody Herman and Johnny Long also recorded the song. Chummy MacGregor co-wrote the music with George Williams.
