Wiki says "Sugar Blues is a song that became popular by Clyde McCoy
featuring the sound of the growling wah-wah mute. He recorded it no less
than four times. It became his trademark song. It was written in 1920 by
Clarence Williams  and recorded for the first time by Leona Williams and
her Dixie Band in 1922. Although McCoy's version was strictly
instrumental, there are lyrics, written by Lucy Fletcher. It was
recorded with vocals by both Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys, Fats
Waller and Ella Fitzgerald."
