Everyone on this list seems to be very well informed
of the history of OKOM.  On the off-chance there are
other lurkers like myself who are not as well
informed, all this talk of "In the Mood" reminded me
of "Tar Paper Stomp".  It was writen well before "In
the Mood" and really drives home the looseness of the
copyright laws at the time.  

You can hear "Tar Paper Stomp" at:

One can say that "Tar Paper Stomp" inspired "In the
Mood", but I personally think there is a bit mroe than
"inspiration" from "Tar Paper Stomp" in "In the Mood".
