Just because I absolutely love this piece of music, I have to stick my
$.02 in. It's "Sing Sing Sing," all right, but it's not Glenn Miller
(though his band may have recorded it); it's Louis Prima. Benny Goodman
recorded it for sure (the Carnegie Hall 40th anniversary concert), and
other big bands probably did, too. Just thought you should know.

I don't have an old copy to whip out and listen to, but I think the
piece was "in the mood,"

Can we talk about the Simpsons please ... doh!

The episode where Abe falls in love with Mrs. Bouvier and Burns steals her to this song.
"Relax Charlie, don't blow a gasket..."
and the best line of that episode...
"I swear Monty.. you're the devil himself"
"Who told you...Oh."
Hey, email me me back, the tune, ny the way, is Sing, Sing, Sing, by Benny.
P.S. How do you post a message on the board?

Incidentally, this was the first jazz tune performed at Carnegie Hall.
