My thanks and admiration to Charlie, Bill et al. for sussing out
Johnny Long and "Chop Sticks" so quickly--now I'm hoping you'll try
another for me. Usually, when you know the tune title--in this case,
"(Back Home in) Indiana"--you can google on that title plus "soundie"
and come up with your answer, but doing that here just gets you to
Mel Torme and the Mel-Tones, who made a very well known soundie of
this song in 1945. So in this case, I'm hoping somebody will
recognize the vocalist. See
