Is there a way I can download a copy of this? I would love to add it to my collection but I'm old and can't figure out how to do it. I'd ask my 9 year old granddaughter but we're quarantined! Where are you located and how did you become aware of this song? Just curious.
Hello Helen, my name is Checha, I'm the female singer in the band and I'm writing in behalf of Jivers. We are absolutely thrilled and honored to have received this message from you. We will send you an email with the material so you can have it, of course. We all come from different musical backgrounds, some of us grew up listenning to Jazz thanks to our parents, others knew it along the way. I can't remember when I first heard this song in particular, but I know it must have been a long time ago. It was a really popular song in our country, among Fox Trot dancers, which my parents were back then. This arrangement is the one of the Mills Brothers we love so much. Let's stay in touch via email! Love!!!!
Hola Checha. I would love to communicate with you through email. How can I give you my email address privately? I still receive royalties from this song believe it or not. My grandfather was a prolific lyricist who wrote many songs but all but Sweet Sue and one other are now in the public domain. He originally started his writing career for Yiddish Theater and there is a poster of his song "Yonkel the Cowboy Jew" hanging in the Ellis Island museum. Sweet Sue was written for an actress, Sue Carol Ladd. She was originally from Chicago and my grandfather knew her well. Let's continue our conversations through email. I am thoroughly enjoying our correspondence.
I don't know how he can play the guitar in that position and hit some of those positions on the sixth string...,and, in addition: That was fantastic! Magnifico...,gracias
OMG!!! You do this song justice. This rendition is spontaneous and genuine. You share "Having Fun" with the audience, we feel included. Regardless of musical genre, improvisational music can never be matched. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful! Your obvious enjoyment, including the dog's is contagious. Not sure how I got to your tune but I'm glad I did. Hey I'm here in Pattaya Thailand and we're having a two week lockdown as wave #3 of The Chinese Virus takes a grip. So maybe that's it - Lockdown Jazz. Keep it up, I'll share it around
Cannot put into words how much I enjoyed this cover!! Really touched me, wow are you able to guide me to where you got the chords sheets for this. Or maybe even scribble the chords out for me quickly? Thanks Jon :):):)

My grandfather, Will J. Harris wrote the lyrics for Sweet Sue. I've heard many versions of this song but this is by far one of the best!
Absolutely. This is soooo beautiful !!!!! And how nice for you Helen!!! What a legacy ! And, who was Sue?? ;)
