[78-L] Soundies

[David Lennick]

That, I knew (not hard to detect actually). And Julian's carping 
notwithstanding, that's been one of my favorite Ellington records since I was 
knee high to my dad's collection. It was also used for years as the theme to 
"Jazz Unlimited" on CJBC in Toronto, with a cross fade from the first to the 
final chorus (done live by the operator every Saturday, till they broke their 
second last copy)..I can still hear that join.

ps to Cary..book arrived, thank you!
