Hi Marek,

Here's a couple of more names to those already supplied by listmate Bill H.
I've long wondered who the sexy low register clarinet belonged to in the
scene where the two leads are gazing out over the dance floor to the
shuffling sound of dancing feet. Peyton Legare is a new name to me so guess
I'd better getta Googling agin <G>  I curious why Rex Stewart was ghosted.

Sourced from: "Jazz on the Screen" by David Meeker.

Bunny Berigan and George Thow shared the soundtracking of trumpet work for
actor Jackie Cooper and for trumpet player Rex Stewart; Stan Wrightsman
ghosted piano for actress Bonita Granville; general jazz soundtrack
recording was by George Thow, trumpet; Joe Yukl, trombone; Peyton Legare,
clarinet; Jack Stacy, tenor sax; Stan Wrightsman, piano; Red Roundtree,
guitar; Bud Hatch, acoustic double bass; Richie Cornell, drums.
