Good song -- although not a hit. Al had 11 hits between 1936 and 1941, including the #1 smash "Jeepers Creepers" (Vocalion 4513) in 1938-9. Vocalist Dee Keating (seen here) was on one of those hits: "The Wise Old Owl" (Okeh 6037), which first charted April 5, 1941 and peaked at #3 over a nine week run.

@evillynn417 My name is Jim Coleman. Dee Keating was my aunt. She died in 1964 when I was 23. I was in contact with her until she passed. Patty introduced me to my first wife in 1966. At that time Patty had 5 kids and was a widow . She was only 24 at the time. In the 70s , after "leaving" the 5 kids with her late husband's parents, she ended up in the Boston area. I think she married a young man whose father was in the Boston Symphony and had at least one child with him. That's it....

Dee Keating was my husband's aunt, who passed away in 1962 from a suspected overdose. Patricia disappeared in the 1970's, she had 3 children - my husband's sister knows the names of the children but that is the extent of it. My husband was about 6 or 7 when Dee passed, but he remembers her bringing him gifts when she visited her sister or my husband's mother.
