Paul Whiteman's orchestra did a small-group record for Victor in March, 
1936, under the name "Paul Whiteman presents the Teagarden Boys and 
Trumbauer Swing Section". It was "I'se A-Muggin'", spread out over both 
sides of a 10 inch disc. At the end of the first side, Jack Teagarden 
tells Carl Kress about a numbers game tied with the song, promising to 
tell him all about it after the record is turned over to the other side. 
Side two starts with Kress demanding "Well come on now, Jackson, tell me 
all about the numbers."
