The song is:
"Well, Git It!" Composed by Sy Oliver.
I'm not entirely sure which exact recording it is.
Tommy Dorsey is the Artist who first recorded it, but the standard recording is only around the 200 BPMs.
I know some one here will know.
I'm a little suspicious that the version used it speed up.

The version from the Mad Dog performance has been edited to extend it but I believe there is an example of the original recording on this CD.

It's Raymond Scott's version of "Springtime At The Asylum" off the album "Circus Music For Freaks"

The song came from my collection and Toon Town Dave is exactly right.

fwiw - the version of "WGI" on the 4-CD box set is not the original 1942 recording by Dorsey. It is a faster version that he did crica 1944 for a transcription service. Those transcriptions have been bootlegged many times on many labels.
The original 1942 recording is at a slower tempo and hangs together better imho.
