[Dixielandjazz] Unusual recordings - Famous Bix Duck Call Songs

[John Farrell]

Did Bix ever record At The Ducktown Strutters' Ball (a well-known quackstep
written by Vernon Drake) or Baubles, Mallards and Ducks? I know for sure
that his Bibbity Bobbity Quack was never released because it was considered
to be too boppish.

Somewhere I have a Marty Grosz CD entitled "Donaldson Reducks".
