If one begins listening in a blue mood, the title is sure to apply by the end of the side -- or, more likely, long before. Indeed all the solos are splendid, with some impassioned blowing by Jimmy and fine jazz from the future melodist supreme. Tommy Felline's support is grand, too.
Great transfer and posting, Nick! Reed section arrangements very fine. Tommy Dorsey extra good. As a kid I used to buy Arnold Brilhart clarinet reeds and read his clarinet tutor manuals!! He knew how to monetise his skills!
I have the non-vocal version they did for Columbia the following month. Interesting to hear how similar, yet different they sound! The Columbia one is bit more laid back, while this one is bit more crisp and upbeat. Thanks for sharing!

A great rec and amazing transfer of an edison d.d.
