"To my knowledge he (Fats Waller) never recorded it. Nor is it on any of his
surviving radio transcriptions."
Bill - check out pages 163/4 of Laurie Wright's excellent book "Fats In
Fact" which suggests that Fats might have recorded a radio transcription of
this tune in England in 1938, scheduled to be broadcast by Radio Luxembourg
and Radio Normandy. Laurie notes that the transcription was unlikely to have
survived the war.
Cheers,
