Bug Them Dice

#1 Post by sonofvu » Thu Mar 19, 2009 8:29 am

So I'm always listening to radio shows (internet and terrestrial) and I hear songs, I write down the name of the song and the artist on a post-it or napkin or corner of the electric bill what have. I then go back months later and try to find this music. Here is one:

Bug Them Dice - Fats Waller

I've searched all the usual suspects and the internet and I can't find any info on this song or even where to get it. Any one have any ideas?
Yard work sucks. I would much rather dj.

See, that's what I hate about my napkin filing system. Things get messed up. Thanks I'll check this out.

"bug them dice" sounds like a great name for a bad neoswing band.

Great song! I played it during one of my sets this past weekend at LindyFest. Definitely one of my favorite Fats Waller tunes. You can find it on one of his box sets called The Last Years (1940-43).

A hundred and forty six dallars! I found the song on emusic. That taste a lot better than a buck forty six. There's no cool ghetto way to say $146.

From about $40, used, on Amazon. I don't remember the last time I bought a new CD.
