[Dixielandjazz] RE: Gillespie & Dixieland

[Jon Seiger]

the song is "Umbrella Man," an old tune, originally in 3/4, that diz was 
doing at the time. It was originally on the Jackie Gleason show, you can see 
Jackie come out and greet louis and diz at the very end. The two of them 
really are great together.
