I believe Gene Krupa played in a few different bands as well as his own, so perhaps the track you heard was recorded by a different band with Krupa on drums? I was wondering about that, and it seems likely... but I'm not sure how to go about finding which one it is. Guess I'd better try to get hold...

Well - on the last night of Herrang this year, I ended up dancing to a version I'd not come across before - pretty fast, lots of fun, but with more false endings that all the others put together - in that respect, it was about as evil as a track can get.

Here was me thinking I had a mind and tastes of m...

Well - speaking only for myself, I don't like it either (though 'hate' is a bit strong) - it's just not a track that inspires me. I think - I've just heard it far too much - rarely on the dancefloor, but off it, more times than I can possibly count - from my perspective, it's the definitive overplay...

Difficult question - there are so many different versions, with so many different qualities... I have two Sidney Bechet ones - one from Petit Fleur, which has a strangely sinister opening, but which is a lot of fun once it gets going, and another gentler one from I-know-not-where - the first of thes...
