[Dixielandjazz] Bridge on "Strange Blues"

[Ken Gates]

Wingy Manone is given credit for "Strange Blues"---a rather pretty tune, I think.
I have two recorded versions----One is in the key of Db ---- This one use the chord A7
--and the four melody notes of A7 to start the bridge.

The other version is in the key of C --- and Ab7 (the corresponding chord, of course) does
NOT seem to work--but Ab6 (one melody note different) does seem to work.

Either way sounds okay to my ear.  But curious as to what chord and what the first four
eighth notes of the bridge are used by your group.  Anybody play this tune?
