I think it is the Mugsy Spanier recording that uses the above strain for
almost all its solos and the normal solo chorus hardly at all if ever. I
can't seem to find the recording, so I can't check.
Turk used the strain at least once in the tune whenever I heard him play it.
We do it too, but just one time through after all the solos and just before
the out-choruses (www.santhony.com/ggrm/bigmachine.html - click on the tune
