[Dixielandjazz] Open The Door Richard

[Robert Ringwald]

I remember as a kid hearing a recording of "Open The Door Richard."  

For years I saw a trio walking around Disneyland.  The clarinet player, Jack McVea, (pronounced Mec Vay) was the first one to record the song in 1946.  Since then there has been several covers.

I'd love to hear the original version to see if that is the one I remember.  In fact, I'd like to hear any of the versions that were recorded.  

If anyone has them, could you make a MP3 and email to me?
