[Dixielandjazz] Isle of Capri

[Anton Crouch]

Hello all

Although not a true parody, Wingy Manone's March 1935 version of "Isle of
Capri" is wonderful. He ignores the original words and concludes "I can
blow you off the Isle of Capri". He does!

Even better is the non-vocal version - unreleased on 78. Wingy's trumpet
solo, replacing the singing, is magnificent. The non-vocal version was
issued in 1992 on Collectors Classics CD COCD 5 and may still be available.

All the best
Anton
