Recording-Date: April 12, 1939. This is a rare "white-label" 78rpm-record, played on my "His Master's Voice" portable gramophone, "Serie 102c" - green leather case (1938).

Great classic. Back in my high school jazz band days we played this tune too. We did take a little bit of liberty with it, though, and played it at probably about 50-60% faster than Woody Herman would. It was always our encore/finale every year and we used to have such a blast really "rippin'" it up. The crowd always loved it too.

Woody at his best! One of the best 10 swing songs ever in my opinion. Thanks for posting.
