Love Monk's version w/ Coltrane, but the bridge is elusive. Thanks for the pure melody, not to mention the lyrics!
-
I came here because of "I Love Lucy!" Already knew the song, but they made it so funny in one epsiode.
-
Perhaps the epitome of early thirties pop - before Swing came into view

@ingiliz1 It does fit very well. I had the tune stuck in my head and had to look it up ;)

Wonderful !

Great song - one of the kind they don't write any more. That's why I love the 1930s songs so much. This version is mediocre though. Never mind - anything is better than nothing,

Well I am not sure that you will believe this but I first heard this number performed by the 1960's R&B-soul group, Cliff Bennett & The Rebel Rousers who incorporated it (a radically different version than this one of course) into their live set. It also appeared on their 1965 debut album. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing this version too - thanks!

So who's voice is this Donald or Gus?

There's also a live recorded radio show version of this that's really great too! It's kinda an intro at The Coconut Grove or something & the band goes into the song, "You Don't Need Glasses To See I'm In Love". Rich Conaty played this on his radio show, "The Big Broadcast". "Great Stuff!"

My Mom passed away 8/27/2008. Today, 9/5/08 is Her Birthday. She would have been 77 years old. This was the number one song on the day she was born Sept 5, 1931. How appropriate!!! Miss you Ma, I love you.

Heard this song as theme tune to 'First of the summer wine' thought that the two went together so well.
