Right on Vinny. So that movie scene of their meeting is highly probable.

To hear Krupa with Bix, circa 1930, along with Teagarden, Jimmny  
Dorsey, Eddie Lang, Joe Venuti and others with the Hoagy Carmichael  
orchestra go to:

Read the comment numbers 7 & 8 carefully to figure out where Bix comes  
in. At 1:30 or at 2:44? Note also that some discographers say it was  
Chauncey Morehouse on drums, not Krupa.

Bill Haesler, who was the drummer?
