The song is "Let 'Er Go" - Fletcher Henderson 1937
It is on the Big Band Box Set.
(you can hear the title when the vocals kick in towards end of clip).

Yes, nice track. I have a version with Bea Wain on vocals, off Larry Clinton's CD '1937-1938, Vol. 1: Transcription Sessions'.

I have an Artie Shaw version and slow version by Bunny Berigan.

Great song.

And the title of the thread is ACBD . . . it's should be ACBC (American Classic Balboa Championships). :)
