Bob

as well as the French recording, Louis also recorded it in England with the
line-up you mentioned.
I have included as many of the re-issues that I have details for (thanks Tom
Lord) so it may help you with the version you are playing..


He first recorded it in December 1950 (according to my data) with a band
consisting of

Louis Armstrong (tp,vcl) Jack Teagarden (tb,vcl) Barney Bigard (cl) Earl
Hines (p) Arvell Shaw (b) Cozy Cole (d)
MGM studios, Hollywood, CA, December 26-29, 1950 for the soundtrack of the
film "The Strip".
