This great tune was recorded by Louis Armstrong and his Hot Five in February 1926. The best description of the recording and the personnel is provided by blogger and jazz historian Ricky Riccardi at his "The Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong" blog (November 2008, to be exact). It should be noted that the version of the song provided here at last.fm is MUCH TOO SLOW!!! Louis and his band would never have labored through this"hot" piece at such a slow pace.
