Dear Keith,
It is in DJMLer David W. Littlefield's 'Dixieland Fake Book - Vol. 2.
Trad'
"Candy Lips (I'm Stuck On You)" composed by Mike Jackson-Jack Lauria
was initially recorded by Eva Taylor with Clarence Williams' Blue Seven
for Okeh on 16 Nov 1926.
Then again for Columbia on 25 Jan 1927 by Clarence Williams' Jazz Kings.
However, the one we all know and love (here in Australia) is the
hottest version and was recorded for Okeh by Clarence Williams'
Washboard Four on 29 Jan 1927.
Kind regards,
Bill.
