[Dixielandjazz] Collision at the bridge

[David W. Littlefield]

If played in F, then Db. Please note that the "standard" key (which is also
the original key), at least among non-dixielanders, is *G*, in which case Eb. 

BTW, it's from 1931, and was revived in 1968 by Mama Cass Elliot (The Mamas
and the Papas)
