[Dixielandjazz] Ella Heads Up - BBC Archive Releases

[Harry Callaghan]

What.......no "Tisket-a-Tasket"?

I caught her singing it on a bus in a 1942 Abbott & Costello movie coupla
weeks ago...had to be the worst job of lypsynching I've ever seen.

But at least I'm glad to see that this set includes Sonia's song.
