Thanks for suggesting "Stompy Jones", Julian...but I couldn't hear that riff
anywhere while replaying "Jones" in my head. So I called Ellington
aficionado Steven Lasker and found out the end riff of "It's A Good Day" is
actually from Barney Bigard's 1936 Variety recording of "Frolic Sam". Now I
can stop waking up in the middle of the night!!
