I thought "Someone to Watch Over Me" was US Columbia, November 8,
1926..although it may have occasionally been licensed from EMI or Monmouth
Evergreen and absorbed a fake English pedigree along the way. (And that's the
one whose intro was chopped on "Original Sound of the 20s" which started this
whole thread.) I don't remember where we all "got creative"..maybe on the I Got
Rhythm Variations?
