I know the verse from various recorded versions I have of Turk Murphy,
but we don't play it. We do a Murphy arrangement of the song, however,
which uses the last 4 bars of the song as an intro...Charleston style,
then end by repeating the last 4 bars, also with Charleston breaks (on
the first two bars). Gives a bit more style to a basic 32 bar
song......
