[78-L] Fw: The FBI IS doggin' my trail!! ^

[David Lennick]

I was unclear..Betty sang it in the film, Jimmy's band was in the film, so I'm 
assuming that JD backed her. As far as I know Betty never recorded the song, 
unless she did it much later, but the soundtrack version appeared intact on a 
Paramount promo transcription (and on a Radiola LP).
